    Windshield Washer Nozzle for early 1972 model fj40?

    Is anyone aware of a washer nozzle that works for a 4/1972 production fj40? I tried the version for 9/72 to 9/77 thinking that I could make it work (Toyota 85035-60050), but its too large for the opening in the hood. It appears that the applicable Toyota part (85035-95189) for a 4/72...

    Bikini Top Frame Ideas Wanted

    I have a 73 with the stock roll bar and a TPI bikini top. I ran the top last summer and it sits 3 to 4 inches below the height of the stock hardtop. I am 6'3" tall and the reduced headroom is not appreciated. It's ok when I am moving but it always sags a bit when I am stopped regardless of how...
