    8274 winch motor armature lug question.

    Current flow is what matters. Current flow is always the same through the armature. Direction is determined by current flow through the field winding. F1 to F2 or F2 to F1.

    FJ40 Tailgate vs Swing Doors

    Make your own. Get some rubber sheet from McMaster Carr and cut gaskets.

    Help with nv4500 slave cylinder

    I can't help either. I used an AA Vortec to NV4500 bellhousing, with a stock clutch slave cylinder and throw-out arm. Sorry.

    76 fj 40 axle device

    I think that's the stock knuckle-to-axle tube weld.

    76 fj 40 axle device

    This is a stock axle. This is a C&T axle. I've seen plenty of crappy-looking stock welds on FJ40s.

    76 fj 40 axle device

    Though I mentioned it, since that is often done for a SOA, I can't tell from the photos that it has been cut and turned. I think you need to clean the areas of the knuckle welds really well and take closer photos. I think you may be looking at the stock welds. The new and old spring perches...

    USMC Trailer 614M-65

    Yeah, it's an M416 built in 65. Someone must have had a laugh when stamping that model number onto the data plate. I have one. They're not all that rare, but it can be difficult to find them in good condition. They'll go anywhere from $500 to $1500. The value is what somebody wants to pay.

    76 fj 40 axle device

    Hard to say from your photos. Are those spring-over spring plates parallel to the original spring-under spring plates? There's an OEM weld between the knuckles and the axle tube. Is it possible that's all you're looking at?

    exhaust manifold leak at the heat riser bushings

    The plugs are tapered a little with the larger diameter on the outside. I drilled and tapped them for the bolts and used the bolts on the inside to pull the plugs in tight from the outside.

    1977 FJ40 jack placement and mount

    I don't have a photo, but it's the same as your 76. My 78 is the same as my 76. It changed in the 79 model year.

    Is there a great resource for 40 specifications by year?

    No such reference. There are bits and pieces here and there. 40 series FAQ is a good place to start.

    How Many Fusible Links in a '76 fj40?

    One. Battery positive. I believe it's 14 AWG for a 30 amp circuit.

    motor armature question .. warn 8074 (8274 w/o free spool)

    Am I seeing exposed copper and lugs at those motor connections, up against the band clamps that hold the control box in place? It might be an optical illusion, but it seems like you're going to let the magic smoke out when you fire up that winch. You need to make sure those cable ends are...
