    Rear Facing Back Seat??

    Yeah thats true - I like the idea of the option, but probably not priority #1

    Rear Facing Back Seat??

    Me either - what im wondering is if there is a reason not to? If I was to buy a folding bench seat for the back, why not face it backwards so you access it from the rear? Wondering if its unsafe or just not what most people want.

    Rear Facing Back Seat??

    What are the pros and cons of having a rear facing back seat? Is it safe? My Cruiser came with some super rusty, hacked up jump seats that I started fixing, but am abondoning at this point. The PO cut a chunck out of the back rest to fit around the roll bar, which I was going to repair but...

    '64 Two piece door fitment dilemia

    Problem solved! I was able to get the windshield to tilt back further. I loosed all the windshield mounting hardware and latches, got the window at the angle that I wanted, and after slightly opening up the holes on the windshield hinges was able to get it all back together and latched at the...

    Looking at this more, im not sure if the gasket is in there right and how I would know?

    '64 Two piece door fitment dilemia

    It definitely seems like a lot of small things combined. Looking at pics online, I also think the main issue is the windshield is not leaning back as far as it should. I'm going to start there, and adjust the doors as much as I can also. The gaps around the door are not all consistent but it's...

    More pics. Tried to capture what the angle of the windshield is now and how the passenger side also has a gap.

    '64 Two piece door fitment dilemia

    So I did some measuring. The passenger side door opening is the same width from top to bottom. The driver side is about 3/8" wider at the top compared to the bottom. That said, I put the top half of the door on the passenger side door for comparison, at it still has a similar gap - though it is...

    I will check when I get home. Are there write ups anywhere on this issue?

    I'm trying to visualize what you mean and how you would bend the cowl back. That makes sense.

    My doors are definitely the same as the door you have pictured for your 65. Mine does have the bug catcher vents but you can't see that in the pics. Thanks for the pics, really helps to see the differences!

    I reused the original that came with the truck from the PO. It was still intact and in decent condition.

    '64 Two piece door fitment dilemia

    I really don't know how to tell if it is all original. The person I bought it from had all the body work done and gave me the unassembled door parts. I guess my question would be, what would be the difference between the years that would cause the upper door fitment issues? Was there a different...

    '64 Two piece door fitment dilemia

    Im wondering if the windshield needs to be tilted back? I don't recall there being any more adjustment in the hinges when I assembled things, but thats the only thing I can think of. ???

    '64 Two piece door fitment dilemia

    Its been a year since I have done much work to the cruiser - this summer I thought I would put on a soft top and finally assemble and install the hard doors. When I bought the cruiser it was a partially done project, so I've had the door parts from the pervious owner sitting around since last...

    Intro & 1964 FJ40 4.3TBI/SM420 RestoMod Build

    Over the past weeks I put in new fuel injectors as well as cleaning and regasketing the throttle body. That was about $150 and in reality it looked like the only issue with the old injectors was the o-rings - however, it looked all orginal so for the money and a couple hours I am happy to have...

    Intro & 1964 FJ40 4.3TBI/SM420 RestoMod Build

    This is the route I'm going, except via Amazon. It doesn't run terrible now but I'm interested to see what improvement, if any, I get with new injectors and a rebuild :) On another note I ordered the VSS from JTR and just need to source a cable extension for the install - those extension...

    Intro & 1964 FJ40 4.3TBI/SM420 RestoMod Build

    Received my heated 3 wire o2 sensor and wiring harness today as well as the o-rings to fix my leak at the speedo output. Also ordered a new speedo cable for future use. Interesting that the AC Delco o2 sensor is made in Japan! Installed the heated o2 sensor, didn't seem to make the difference...
