    What can I get for this?

    Are you selling it? If so, put an ad in the Classifieds section. Or put it on eBay - That will let you know how much your cruiser is worth.

    76 FJ40 Starting Problem

    Sometimes starters will develop (or have when built/rebuilt) a "flat spot" - tapping on the starter with a hammer often shifts things enough to allow the truck to start... your "repositioning" tactic may accomplish the same thing? Check battery cables/grounds while you're at it - loose/poor...

    76 FJ40 Starting Problem

    Starter gone bad? Sounds like it's dragging and/or drawing too many amps at start-up

    upgraded my fj40 dash

    I think he was trying to pay you a (albeit backhanded) complement on your gauges. Like, "Hey! - those gauges are sweet! Get the rest of the dash looking that good!"

    Fuel system - help with identification

    Could it be some sort of clever anti-theft (fuel cutoff) device? And the "switch" is intentionally concealed somewhere?

    FJ 40 "Bible"

    There's a book written by Moses Ludel called the "Toyota Truck and Land Cruiser Owner's Bible" - If you're looking for a tangible "book" to hold in your hands, but you're not yet mechanically savvy enough to really dive into a FSM, this is a decent alternative. They are available on Amazon for...

    FJ45 imported from costa rica no papers...

    Go to your local DMV with the VIN and asked them what you need to get a title. If it was legally imported, and especially if it was legally imported into Texas, the local DMV should have some kind of records. Did the current owner indicate that he ever had a title? If so, can you get him to...

    Spotted in Southern Oregon

    50-60.... Incidentally, I saw another red 62 on that same trip... can't remember the last time I saw an FJ62 in my home state... I come to Oregon and see 2 in 20 minutes... I was trying to protect the owner's anonymity by withholding the specific town... Here's the other one!

    Spotted in Southern Oregon

    Saw this red '62 in Oregon. Stopped the owner to say, "Nice Truck!" I asked him how long he had owned it. He replied "Bought it new in '89." I asked if he planned to hold onto it for a while. His reply: "Forever!" Just had to share

    BJ40 no manual hubs

    Those look like the OEM drive flanges. With your current configuration, as your wheels/tires turn, the inner axles shafts are also turning, as is your front differential. Free-wheel hubs (the kind you're expecting to see) effectively disconnect the movement of the wheels from the axle shafts...

    New to the Group - 78' FJ40

    Welcome to the forum! Try not to get discouraged by people pooping on your parade... that's a nice looking cruiser - enjoy it!

    2F rebuild

    Jim Chenoweth in Lancaster OH - not sure anyone is more knowledgeable on carburetors and distrubutors, and I think he can do about anything on your cruiser you may need. I remember he was around when I got into Cruisers on the mid-90's... he's pretty active on this forum, too.

    '76 FJ40 Rollin' in Kali

    You sure that's a 76? Hardtop (with pop-out rear windows) looks like it's from a later model cruiser... Is that the color-changing paint scheme? I don't think think I've ever seen that on a land cruiser!

    Lift kit for FJ45?

    May want to look for a more recent thread, since this one's been dormant for 11 years... And if you want the original poster to see your note, use the "@" symbol before his username, which appears to be "canadian bum", not "Cruiserbum".

    Guidance: brake upgrade on fj40

    Probably not 71-74, given the pics of his truck and his location. Any on the non-USA guys want to chime in? My plan is to swap in a US-market hub-to-hub disc axle assembly of the appropriate vintage...

    Bought 1977 fj40 - has a couple strange things going on with it

    A few different companies have made fiberglass bodies over time, and their level of detail (and quality) will vary. That's why your dash looks funny. A 77 US-market dash would have many more knobs than you mentioned... Your tub doesn't have the kick vents, nor are the louvers (for the fresh...
