Hello, I just sold my 40's and am looking to buy a new one. I don't want anything that will be a big project or anything like that. I would like something that already has a V8 and powersteering but might be interested in a really nice stock rig too. If you have anything let me know.

Hey everybody. I have a '72 FJ40 and my clutch pedal started feeling really spongy and after a while it wouldn't let me shift any gears. Somebody told me it was the slave cylinder so I replaced it. But it still is doing the same thing, I can get a couple of shifts out of it and then stops...

Thanks for all the replys.. Mine FJ40 is '72 so I think it would be an easier one the wire. I really don't know that much about eletrical wiring so I do a little more research and see if I can do it myself. :)
