IT's that time of year. The birds are chirping, the pollen is falling, the spring showers are here... and I go are far as thinking about adding AC to my '77 FJ40.
I have studied the installation process for adding Vintage Air and Nostalgic Air systems to vehicles of this vintage. So I think I...
Does this sound familiar to anyone? It's loudest from underneath, near the clutch. I've used an auto stethoscope but it's impossible to pin-point the exact part that's making this noise. It's really loud.
-it seems to happen only at idle speed or a consistent RPM range. Sorry I don't have...
I've searched for a full kit of rubber body mounts. I am assuming that the reason the poly mounts are so common is because the rubber kits are actually not available?
I know the advantages of the poly kits, but I prefer the rubber ones.
Anyone have a source for a rubber body mount kit...
I have an 77 FJ40 with a newly installed trollhole carb.
I'm looking for an OEM air cleaner, and I found one that is/was for a 79-80 model. Will it work on my 77? If so, are there adapters or spacers that I might need (like the spacer on City Racer web site?). Spacer for '75 to '80 FJ40 2F...
I bought a new in box trollhole carb from another MUD member for a bargain, but it didn't include any kind of paperwork or instructions. And I've looked for an obvious place in the Trollhole vendor forum for a direct link to instructions. I am putting it on a '77 40. I saw a few threads that...
I've had my 77 '40 for about 5 years, and i've concluded that I need to replace my carb. The carb that is on it is a weird Weber/Solex 34 DGEC that I think was sold by Quadratec back around 2005-2010. It has developed a pretty dramatic leak at the accelerator pump. I think I found the...
I guess my main question is: is there an option for a tigher-fitting, Rubber, outer door window seal that will fit an 1977 FJ40? The felt type seems to allow a lot of water into the door.
Maybe i have a wrong impression of the function of the felt-type door window seal/weatherstrip.

I have a few parts that i want to get rid of (with as little effort as possible on my part). I don't feel like selling them, so i want to just give them to someone who actually needs them. I just want to get rid of them as soon as possible. The parts are located near Greenville NC...

For anyone who has an FJ40 with a factory installed AC system (doesn't matter which model year)...
i am wondering if/what things Toyota did to litigate engine/transmission/exhaust heat within the cabin. is there additional insulation on the firewall, under the floor, etc? What about...
Does anyone know if this latch can be removed from the front seat bracket? I want to paint my seat frames, and i need to separate the latch from the bracket for painting.
Greetings,
-I am ready to pull the trigger on some seat covers for my FJ. The total order is +500. Do you guys have any coupon codes or special discounts for MUD members?
Also,
-Can you guys share the source or manufacturer for the material that you use for your Coral seat covers? I need...
I need to have my seat belts restored. Webbing and tensioner. i see that Land Cruiser Heaven has that service. Does anyone have experience with their service? Does anyone know of a comparable service from a different company? I'm interested in hearing about good and bad experiences...
Cheers
I've been running into 1 major and 1 annoyance issue with my FJ40 since it's been drivable.
- fuel starvation (fuel not getting to the carb)
-whistling sound coming from the under carriage (while sitting still as well as driving)
Here's what i've done:
-added fuel pressure gauge
-replaced...
Anybody have an exhaust downpipe for a '78 FJ40? Going from a header to back to stock manifold, and need the downpipe. i know i can get the flange and have my muffler place fabricate one, but that plan won't work for me right now.
thanks
