    Difference between Roll bars - 72 to 73

    I'm tracking down roll bar padding with summer on the way and I'm leaning towards SOR's since it comes with a cover. But I have a 72 (stock) and SOR only sells padding from 9/73-9/77 and later. I measured the bar earlier and it's close to 2 inches around. Will the 9/73-9/77 fit? Is...

    78 FJ40 sputters and dies at stops

    Sorry to hijack - but I might need different advice than baldboy. Mine's a 72 with original F. Is the fuse still in the same place? Or am I probably looking at a totally different problem and solution? Thanks. Sam

    78 FJ40 sputters and dies at stops

    Same Problem The exact same problem JUST (yesterday afternoon) happened to me - minus the steep grades and pushing it a bit hard. Gotta stay on the gas or it dies. Eventually, it becomes a bit tougher to start after each shut down. WTF? Will check out the fuse. Thanks a bunch. Sam

    Painting accessories - What type of paint?

    I've got a grey set of 1/2 doors and a grey bikini top - I want them both black. What's the best way to get them that way? Paint? What kind? What won't rub off? Thanks. Sam

    Mechanic Needed - SE Pennsylvania

    I'm pretty sure that I just need a good motor guy. Some transmission and exhaust work needed in the not-to-distant future. Minor electrical issues... I'm in Swarthmore, PA - 19081. Southwest suburbs. Thanks. Sam

    Mechanic Needed - SE Pennsylvania

    So I brought my 1st one home today from GA. :D A 72, mostly stock, handled fairly well from GA. Even pushed her to about 65 mph (but who really knows?) on I-95. There were a couple issues that I just don't feel capable of attending to and I'd like to find a mechanic in the Philly area. I...

    Would you drive 500 miles in your cruiser?

    I bought mine back in February, but I'm flying down to pick it (a '72) up on the 30th of June from northern GA. Day 1 to Durham, NC. Day 2 to DC. Day 3 back home to Philly. Then I'm moving to TX in it later this summer. Trying to save some money in case the sh!t hits the fan on either trek...

    Another rear seat question

    Okay - So here's a potentially stupid idea (you don't have to be gentle anymore): Now I know how this forum feels about diamond plating, and I don't really disagree, but it may be somewhat useful here. What if I can outfit the back of the 40 with a relatively thin layer of diamond...

    Another rear seat question

    Thanks for the replies. Yeah, that is a pretty steep price for the seats, even though they look to be in good shape. I got my bench seat off ebay - it's an 8/10 - but it was only 60 shipped from CA to Philly. The FAQ link was helpful - I had visited some of those threads before. I...

    Another rear seat question

    This is my first post , so be gentle... After researching fj's off and on (during my college years), I just went out and bought a 72 fj40 (my first one!). I'm picking it up at the end of June. Except for the tires, wheels, stereo, and a couple smaller details, it's all stock. There is a...
