    Hitch receiver integrated into bumper

    I'm about to start building a rear bumper/tire carrier. I know there are a lot of threads on this already. But one thing I haven't found is the subject of integrating a hitch into a rear bumper. I can buy a bolt on hitch from man-a-fre, ccot, sor, or even JTO... Or I can weld a receiver into...

    Smog pump is dead, idle pulley options

    I have a 2f from an '86 fj60 in my Fj40. It is desmogged and I had the smog pump it place just to tension the water pump belt. The smog pump bit the dust, and now I'm looking for a good, budget replacement. I did try gutting the pump and that didn't make a difference. I think I can put...

    4spd tranny w/3sp tcase, trying to hook up linkage

    I have a 4 spd tranny and a 3spd tcase. I installed the tranny into my '71 cruiser a while ago. 2wd works great, but it has always been a work in progress so I haven't used 4wd for a while. Now it doesn't work, it was vacuum operated but I wanted to switch over to direct linkage anyway. I...

    Headlight fuse blows after 10 minutes

    Like the title says, my headlight fuse blows after a few minutes. Its done this twice, and I'm wondering if anybody has any ideas of where I can look for a problem. I know to look for any wires that may have rubbed through their insulation and are grounding out. The fact that it takes a...

    Transfer case linkage conversion...

    First of all, I'm converting my vacuum tansfer case linkage to direct mechanical. The hi/lo dash pull lever is also getting removed. I have a '71 FJ40 with the stock 3spd transfer case. But I do have a 4spd transmission. I ordered the parts from cruiserparts.net, I told them what I was...

    FJ60 starter is the best thing ever!

    So I just swapped in a FJ60 gear reduction starter, and it makes a huge difference. I think it starts my engine quicker and sounds a lot more solid. Basically bolts right in, I did however have to extend 1 wire a few inches. Best part it was only $35 from TAP through ebay. Everybody should...

    brake booster vacuum

    Just a quick question about the brake booster vacuum hose. After many modifications and swapping all sorts of things around, I lost track of where the brake booster hose attached to. I'm assuming it can get hooked up to a few different places, like the intake manifold. Just wanted to double...

    trying to install longer wheel studs...

    As the title says, I'm trying to install longer wheel studs on my '71 fj40. I was able to swap out the rear axle wheel studs. But when I went to remove the studs from the front axle, they won't slip out. The studs hit part of the drum brakes, unlike the rear axle. They are loose, so is there...

    Engine parts, power steering and other goodies!

    I have a few items for sale, the first few are from an '86 2f engine. I swapped the engine in, from another cruiser that was swapping in a 350. The 2f engine was cherry, very clean and runs like a top, so I can say the parts from it are in excellent condition. They are: Fully electronic...

    winter prep - Heated seats...

    I'm trying to tie up any loose ends on my cruiser before winter really sets in here. And I've been thinking of adding seat heaters. My heater does work, but even in a new car, seat heaters are really nice. So why not try to install a pair in my cruiser. Anyway I have Corbeau Ultra SS seats...

    white smoke...

    I just finished getting my 2f swap wrapped up. I got it fired up let it run for a little bit. Burning off some spilled fluid from the headers. Then I realized that there was white smoke coming from between the fire wall and the back of the engine. Its a really tight fit and I couldn't get a...

    Factory A/C for OBA?

    Hello, I'm putting an '85 fj60 engine in my '71 fj40 and it has all sorts of nice things I'm not used to like power steering, A/C, and a bunch of smog crap. I'm in the process of pulling of most of the smog stuff and I'll hook up the power steering pump but... Is there any use for the A/C...

    fuel pump compatibility

    Is there any reason why I couldn't use a '71 fuel pump on a '85 block? If I could it would make a few things go a lot easier for me. Fuel lines would line up, no extra return lines, etc. The actual pump arms look quite similiar, and it bolts right up. The old style pump does seem like it...

    fuel line, carb fitting.

    I'm trying to figure out what size threads are on the end of the fuel hard line that thread onto the carb. I have a 1985 2f with a 1971 f carb on it. To help the fuel line connect, I think a 90 brass elbow fitting should do the job. But I need to know what I'm looking for. Mix 'N Match...
