Haven't had it in for an alignment yet. Trying to make plans for have it done soon. Tightened a few bolts Sunday. Tried to take it for a spin but the battery was dead. Doh!
I've got a slow battery draw, probably the radio. I have to put it on the charger every 4-7 days of sitting.
Did get a...
Yea, everything looked okay. I may have posted a video in this thread somewhere. If not look me up on YouTube, "cougarzluv". You'll find plenty of videos. Lol
I've talked to them. Probably ordering a lift kit through them. If push comes to shove, I'll take it there. Trying to take shot of fixing myself before I hit up a professional. Lol
Sorry, I like the hard shell. Plus, I have a bikini that'll work in the nice days. What I need now is to be able to drive this bad boy! Still chasing the Death Wobble... : (
Hello all,
So far I've managed to swap the rear and front tires, tightened anything potentially loose, and went for a long drive. I drove nearly an hour with lots of stops, bumps, and turns. I thought it was gone...
Speed forward a couple of hours. I decided to grab a pizza and on my way I...
Thanks for the pointers. I'll have to get a buddy to help me out. I jacked up the front end and tried to visual inspect everything today. I'm not seeing anything too out of place, that I can see. I'll post a YouTube link I made of the front end, see below.
Hmmm, okay. Thank you. I'll have to do some investigating. I'm getting a new used set of wheels from the PO. I'll probably get all Terrains for them and hopefully solve my issue.
How bad were your tires? Visually, these don't look too bad. The odd thing about it is, I met the PO halfway- so a two hour drive for both of us. He drove it will zero issues. When I went for a test drive, the DW started. So, I have a few scenarios that could of caused it. Oh, prior to him...
Awe sweet! I'd love to. Where are you located? Feel free to share photos.
Also, could you send photos of your front seat and how the seat frame is set up? I'm trying to figure out what's going on with mine.i know the front seats are not original and looks like a frame and compartments with...
Oh ok. I'm about to order parts to replace the tie rods and bushings. That's about the only thing that wasn't replaced yet. All ends, etc. we're replaced. So now, chasing the issue. I may have to add a new stabilizer but currently collecting parts for a power steering upgrade. Not sure if the...
What time and where? Is it the TTR meeting in Dallas? I've been to those with my Fj and 4runner. I'm trying to get back down to Texas in time to attend (I work in OKC). Unfortunately, if I do, I won't be able to bring the LC.
Hello Texas Crowd,
Long time Toyota owner, first time FJ 40 LC owner. I already love this thing! He did come from a fellow Mud member so you may know him in the Houston area.
I've changed his name to Old Sarge, Sarge for short. On his bad days, I'll call him Grumps. Lol.
I look forward to...
Hello all. I'm a fresh owner of a '72 FJ 40. I'm a long time Toyota owner, first time LC owner. I'm already loving this beast. I will be hunting down parts as I go and doing all I can to keep him alive.
Currently, he's come down with the death wobble so I'm looking for parts to eliminate the...
