    Probably a dumb axle question.

    Ahhh. Makes perfect sense. I just didn’t notice it until I had hub off and was cleaning up.

    Probably a dumb axle question.

    Other than being hard to get grease and undercoating out of,,,What is the purpose of these “ears” on front axle?

    Front axle/steering arm question. HJ45

    Quick question,,,,Does anyone know when the front knuckle on HJ45 changed the size on the steering arm and bottom bearing cap? I have a 1980 HJ45 (03/80). I ordered a new steering arm and cap for my left side based on that year. The one on right is what was on the truck, and when I ordered...

    Damaged Birfield joint. Usable?

    The inside of axle ball is perfect. No damage. I assume at some point this birfield was put in there already beat up.

    Damaged Birfield joint. Usable?

    I've pretty much decided to just buy a new (or used) joint. I was a little confused about something. I keep seeing them advertised as 27 or 30 spline. I decided to count my splines to make sure I was getting the right one. My old one has 30 splines on the shaft at the outer end, but where...

    Damaged Birfield joint. Usable?

    I just tore down my left knuckle on 1980 HJ45, and came across this damage on the Birfield joint. This is my first time doing this. Found that bearing that you see sitting on the top of birfield, buried in the grease in the bottom of the knuckle housing. The strange thing is,,,Where did it...

    Rear Freeze plug on H diesel

    I plead ignorance! It's mighty close behind the freeze plug if it is. It only went in about 1/4 inch before it stopped. I'm gonna try to drill a small hole and try to pull it out.

    Rear Freeze plug on H diesel

    While I had the bell housing off of my H diesel, (replacing pilot bearing and rear seal), I decided to replace the large freeze plug on back of engine block. While tapping in on one side, (the plug usually spins around so you can grab it), the plug went in evenly and bottomed out after about...

    Clutch question HJ45

    Ok, I promise I did my best to find the answer to this, but no luck. I have a 1980 HJ45 with the H diesel. I notice when I price Clutch kits for it that the "H" kit cost waaayyyy more than the 2H kit. My question is, are they interchangable? In my search, I heard several people talk about how...

    HJ45 Welsh Plugs - Please Help

    Just came across this post. I have an early 80 HJ45 that also has the h diesel. I am about to start replacing some failing plugs. Did you ever find a "kit" with all the necessary plugs? It seems I can find kits for everything but the H. If not, do you remember which ones you ended up needing.

    FJ40 2h wiring

    How was the EZ kit to put in? I have a 1980 HJ45, and the wiring is pretty pieced together. Thinking about redoing the whole thing as I "learn" my HJ.

    HJ45 GLOW AND STARTER QUESTION

    Hey guys,,,Just seeing if anyone else has had this exact (or close) problem. I have a 1980 (early) HJ45 with the H diesel. Ran pretty well the first several months. Hold the key to glow position for 12-15 sec and it would start right up! But after sitting uncranked for about a month, all I get...

    Motor Stand for H diesel

    That looks like a good setup! I bought a whole motor/transmission/transfer case strapped to a pallet. Someone had pulled it out of a troopy to put in a larger motor/conversion. I just want a good setup to put it on so I can work on it. I'll give yours some thought. Would love to visit...
