    Instead of a headliner?

    Carpet I glued on some black carpet , the indoor/outdoor type. Quietened down the interior noise and looks good. Cost me about $30 and a 6 pack. Paul

    Aftermarket Master Cyl?? Rebuild?

    Need a few opinions based on experiences. I need a new MC. Aftermarkets are $100, OEM are at least $200. I there really a big difference? If the bore in my old one is decent, would an OEM kit be OK? It's a late 70's mc on my 68 FJ40. Thanks, Paul

    What is this?

    fj40 wiper arm questions

    Wipers My 68 FJ40 has little short blades. I went to Walmart and bought a set of refills for about $3 and cut them to length. I replaced just the rubber part. The blades I bought are long enough to do another replacement. After all the rubber part is what does the work. Getting the whole...

    ? for you early 70's 40 owners

    Passenger Duties It's my passenger's duty to hold my beverage. If no passenger then I use the crotchal area of my body. Spillage in that area can cause slight embarrassment but I'm used to it. I really think the best solution is the gimbal mounted holder mounted to the dash. Wonder if...

    Just got it! TH400/Chevy350

    Th400/sbc I've got this combination in my 68 FJ40. I also went to Saginaw PS. Mine has the original 3 speed Xfer case. All of my adapters/mounts are AA. I used a Hurst shifter and it works OK but I'd consider a Lokar now. I did my years before Lokar was around. Like the other guy said the...

    Topless Rocks

    My doors work fine I have a Kayline top and doors on my 68 FJ40 and it works as well as any soft top. The doors are great, though the latches needed some rework before they worked as well as I wanted. The top sections pull off easily so I have half doors is I want. I drive mine year round...

    Horsepower!?

    Ypu can go to mortec.com and find out your engine's heritage from the serail/casting numbers. There are also sites to check your head's lineage from the casting #'s. You can get head casting #'s by pulling the valve covers. Good "old" heads are out there but be careful of what you buy. I...

    V-8 Ign. timing

    I have similar engine but it has HEI. All of my driving is at 7000' asl and up. I screwed around with AFB jetting, rods and springs and got her leaned out, then tweaked the timing 2 deg at a time until I ended up at 13 btdc at idle. Make sure your centrifugal advance and vaccuum adv is OK...

    whats wrong?

    I didn't get my speed figured right until I calculated the actual speed by using the measured circumference of the tire by measuring how far it went in one revolution. Just because a tire says it's a 31 or a 33 doesn't mean that exactly. It can mess up your calculation. My speedo is within 2 mph...

    automatic shifter, what to use?

    I've got a Hurst Pro Shift and it sucks, The pattern is vague and I'm going with the Lokar pretty soon. They look simple and you can get various lengths.

    wiper speed

    The wipers on my 68 were slow also. The following things all helped: Cleaned electrical connections in plug-in connectors. I had a bit of voltage drop across them. Checked and lubed the bushingg in the windshield frame, They were dry and a bit sticky Cleaned good out of cable between left and...
