    Conversion to R134, Pulley mis-alignment, and jumping belts

    High pitched squeal similar to a bull elk's bugle with some mechanical grinding-ish noise thrown in. 91 FJ80 with lift and 32's.

    Fender dimensions

    Could someone give me some dimensions on the fenders for a FJ40. In particular - Angle of the vertical part of the fender in reference to the body (From the square part of the cab the body narrows to the front - what is that angle that the "narrowing" is at). I "eyeball" it at about 5 degrees...

    FJ60 Pickup from a basket case

    I recently came across this 60 (asking $1000) runs and drives, but as you can see in the pics - major rust issues up top. I am going to inspect it soon to see what it is like underneath. Not sure if Not sure if the A-frames are even salvageable (if not this will probably be a no-go for...

    FJ60/40

    Anyone ever try and mod the front end of a 60 Series to somewhat resemble the front end of a 40 series? I have never run photoshop, or I would at least have attempted to represent my concept. Thanks
