Getting Marion (1974 FJ40) ready for Spring--valve adjusting, checking timing, etc.
I searched both FSM and Mud but couldn't seem to find an answer.
When the choke lever on the dash panel is pushed all the way in (open), should the choke valve/plate be straight vertical or be at a slight angle?
I am searching for 2 bench seats for a hardtop 1973 FJ40. As long as the frame is hacked/roaches out, I’d be interested.
My son and I are about to take our extended road trip though north Texas, northern New Mexico, and central Colorado. The great thing is we can vary our route depending on...
I posted in parts but figured this is probably a better place to post this.
I am in need of 4-6 riveted wheels for early 40/45s. I don't want pretty, nice ones--crusty, inexpensive and functional is all I need. By functional, just mean that the tire can hold air on it--if the hub clips are...
I am in need of 4-6 riveted wheels for early 40/45s. I don't want pretty, nice ones--crusty, inexpensive and functional is all I need. By functional, just mean that the tire can hold air on it--if the hub clips are broken/bent off, that's just fine. Would prefer close to San Antonio for pick...
Need complete column shifter with handle and knob. I would prefer an earlier on the does not thread into turn signal housing BUT that preference is expendabl.
Can also use a turn signal housing combined with the column shifter.
I am in need of a manual steering box bracket/mount. The one on my ‘63 45 looks like it was broken and bugger welded back together. Here’s a pic of what I need:
I'm a glutton for punishment. As if it's not bad enough that I am looking for a silver faced speedo, I also would like to have a stamped bezel. I am not interested in a repo, would like it to be original.
I need a pair of large tie rod clamps. The original tie rod on my ‘63 45 was significantly bent. I bought an OEM replacement only to find that the clamps from the original tie rod were too small. Ordered a new set, also too small. Anybody have a set of the larger clamps they no longer need...
As I get closer to starting the engine on our 45, I noticed I need what is circled in red but will buy the whole assembly (circled in yellow) if that is what is available. Doesn’t need to be purdy, just functional.
Muchas Gracias.
I am looking for original parts catalogs for 1963, 1964. I'd be interested in any other manuals from those years as well. Prefer that the catalogs/manuals include parts for FJ45LP. Condition does not matter.
Looking for an early ignition with screw terminals and key for an FJ40. I do know that there are new ones available with spade connectors--I will go that way if needed but figured I try and hunt down an original.
Looking to have a pair of FJ45 doors brought from SLC down to San Antonio. Although I live in San Antonio, if somebody could get them Dallas, Ft Worth, Austin (really anywhere in central Texas), I’d greatly appreciate the help.
Need early FJ40/45 doors for my 1963 FJ45 (have thin vs wide frame on top of door frame). Main need is for the passenger door. Also need one window for one of the doors. I don’t need the handles, window regulators, hinges, etc.
