    SOLD  FJ40 Front Split Bench

    Selling my split bench out of an early 1972. I believe it fits earlier years as well. Only cons are in the drivers seat. The seat is a bit squishy and could use new foam. It also has a small tear in the side (see pics) and does not have the base. I reused the base for my buckets. Otherwise...

    Pre 72' Seats

    Hi all, I have a 72' (Dec 71 build) that currently has the split bench in it. At one point I pulled the bench seat setup and put in a set of Corbeau seats, but I never liked the look or that the passenger seat was much higher than the drivers side. Last weekend I pulled that setup and went back...

    12/71 Hazard Switch Operation

    Hi all, I’m starting down the path of diagnosing why my turn signals are slowly giving out, they work, then slowly fade out/stop working. Some searches on mud led to starting by cleaning up the hazard switch. All fine and good, but I’ve once again managed to turn a quick job into a longer...

    Windshield Washer Nozzle

    Hey everyone I'm trying to find a replacement washer/sprayer nozzle for my 72. I can't seem to locate a sprayer from the usual vendors that isn't round. Does anyone have a spare or know where to find one that'll fit? Thx Andy

    Comms

    Working on the last bits of getting my 40 ready for the desert season and am wondering what the group primarily uses for communications out on club runs. There are a ton of opinions out on the general forum. CB, GMRS, HAM, or a combo? I'd like to permanently mount something. Thanks! See...

    Transfer case selection

    I'm finally going to do a transmission swap on my 72' FJ40 and I wanted to get some opinions on Transfer cases based of my needs and your experiences... It's a 1972, 2F, factory 3 speed trans, and 3 speed transfer case. Small lift, 33's, and I do off road it. I usually do day off road trips...

    Radiator Overflow tank

    Hi all, A previous owner mounted the tank to the fan shroud. It works fine for city driving, but is not ideal for off road. Coolant splashes around enough that it gets into the upper purge tube and makes a mess of things. Question is, what's the correct tank and what's the correct way/place...

    SOLD  Holley Sniper 2300 Master Kit

    I bought this kit from Mosley Motors in June 2019 and never installed it. This is the "Master Kit" that was being sold at the time. I've opened a couple of the bags to test fit things, but nothing has ever been installed, never had fuel through any of it, never had sealant on any of it etc. Two...

    Summer Projects

    I'm starting to give some thought to some summer projects for the 40 when its too hot out in the desert to go play. The first of which is to address my transmission and transfer case. Factory 3 speed setup from an early 72 behind a 2F. They purge oil like its their job and I occasionally get...

    Corbeau Seat Bracket

    Hi All, Has anyone here installed the Corbeau front seat brackets in a 1972 or earlier Fj40? I bought the brackets that were supposed to line up with the factory holes. The Drivers side went in perfect, but the passenger side was more than a little off. My 72' was built towards the end of 71'...

    PCV Valve and exhaust smoke

    Hi all, I have an early 80's 2F in my 72' 40. I've been getting some grayish smoke coming out of the exhaust after it's been sitting at idle for awhile. I disconnected the PCV valve tube from where it plugs into my riser below the carb, plugged the port on the carb riser, and it stops smoking...

    Hood Rivets

    I've got two rivets on either side of my hood from a previous owner. What would someone have used these for in the past? Anyone have pictures of 40's with stuff mounted on the hood? I'm intrigued and interested to throw something on the hood....Just cause the holes are already there. Ha!

    Sniper install prep

    Hi all, I'm working towards installing a Sniper kit that's been sitting under my workbench for 6+ months. Two things working against me before doing the install is a non vented gas tank and no fuel return line (currently running a weber 38/38). What's the best way to vent this gas tank? It's...
