Hello all,
I'm in the market for a set of wheels and tires for our bone-stock '08 GX. I found the Circuit Offroad wheels website and they look to have some nice offerings at reasonable prices. However, I can't seem to find much information or any reviews out there about them.
Has anyone...
We have decided to sell our GX470 that we have owned for nearly 7 years. We brought it with us from AZ when we moved just over a year ago. We're using the funds to help our new business which is a small dealership specializing in old trucks.
Super-clean, Arizona vehicle, clean title, very...
Hello all,
I'm working on my '97 and the airbag light blinks. It is usually a continuous blinking, however sometimes, it stops blinking and goes out. Then after a few minutes or a couple of hours, it starts again.
The threads that I have found seem to be for airbag lights that are just...
Hello all,
I have a 97 that I'm working on and there are 3 electrical connectors on the passenger side of the engine compartment, near the firewall, that aren't connected. What are each of these for?
Thanks!
Hello all,
I'm posting our FJ40 up for sale since we're relocating across the country. It has a SBC 350/ SM465 conversion from the previous owner. It was well done and runs very well. We take it out on the weekends and for date nights regularly. It's titled as a historical vehicle here in...
I'm looking for 2 dash light sockets for our '72. One will be for a turn signal indicator and the other is for the brake light indicator. They would look like this:
Thanks.
Hello all,
We're looking at relocating out of the insanely hot Phoenix area to NC. We're looking at the Charlotte area, currently and we also want to look at Wilmington. We have also looked at Concord and Raleigh, but neither of those are fitting what we're looking for.
Any input on what we...
For those that are looking for the "period-correct" looking tach in their FJ40's, we went with this model from Wild Horses 4x4:

Our '72 has a SBC and we needed a tach. It's an Autometer gauge with their custom face...
Our '72 has a SBC conversion using the GM 4-speed/ xfer case setup. I just noticed that the master cylinder is starting to leak on the inside of the cab.
The master looks to be original, or close to it. Which master should I buy? Or, should I just get one of those kits from SOR that come...
Hello all. My wife and I recently added a FJ40 to our collection. It's a 72 with some mods already completed, which is nice. The front suspension had new springs, OME shocks, power disk brakes, etc. However, the rear has what looks like the old stock springs and some regular Monroe shocks. My...
I just wrapped up doing an evaporator swap this morning. I started the truck to ill/ burp the cooling system and there are several lights on the dash lit up:
Cruise
KDSS (not a kdss GX)
blinking battery light
oil light comes on when the door opens (weird)
Low fuel light
no gauges work, (The...
Well, as my luck would have it, just a few weeks after buying my 2008 GX, the AC went out. The leak is from the evaporator. Lucky me.
I have everything opened up down to where the entire hvac box is sitting there. The massive dash bar is pulled aside, steering column dropped, etc. I can't...
I messed with the temperature on the AC last week when we were traveling. Now, the driver side isn't as cold as the passengers side. I've tried turning the AC off then back on and that hasn't worked.
It seems as if the blend door or whatever is stuck on my side so the AC is kind of warm. The...
Hi, all. I had lurked on here off-and-on for about a year while looking for a LC or a LX470. My wife wasn't crazy about the interior of those since they looked too old, but she really liked the GX. We found a very clean 2008 and recently picked it up.
We like to do road trips and camping, so...
