I can hardly type. I have hardly slept for a week. Out of the blue, Finn our 4yr old started limping last week. The week prior life was as normal as can be on the farm.
Waited a week and got him on last Friday afternoon. I couldn’t sleep for days Becuase i googled limp and wrist bump...

They are thinking fuel delivery. 1976or 78 fj40 carbed
Drove fine until outside of parachute. Then started stumbling lack of power.
Opened gas cap, no real change
Been using ethanol free, no change
Changed fuel...
I’ve got the original Toyota CT26 turbo off of my BJ74. I sent it in to G-POP turbos to be a stock rebuild. Zero issues, works great.
This turbo was stock for the 13BT, 12HT and possibly others
It has been about 25,000 miles since the rebuild. I pulled it off for a custom turbo setup I did...
So when we moved I begrudgingly Had to give up my nice 40x80 shop.
Now I have 3 potential options and a really tight budget. I can’t complain as I’m not working out in the open on a dirt field, but I would definitely like some improvements. The other possibility is that this isn’t our...
@Laughingjackal and @PabloCruise came over and we starting discussing cruisers and boost issues.
@Laughingjackal has an
FJ60 with a 4bd1t, Garrett gt2252, front mount intercooler.
He has to mash it to get 11psi max.
I looked under the hood and the wastegate vacuum line was gone and the...
Alright, not sure what’s up but I can’t view this thread in 70 series section.
I can see it in the main forum list, and I get alerts that I’m tagged in, but it says oops the page doesn’t exist.
Any help?
Found this little beast at a place we were picking up dirt. My thought was to make a little trailer for my rooftop tent. It will Probabaly need some mods but is cheap enough for a start??
Bracing
Bigger axle and tires
Support to mount the rtt
$200.00
This was put-up for $5k in western Colorado. I tried like crazy to get it, but it was gone. Day late apparently. Says no rust, clean interior, 128k, miles
So we are on a water supply in the country, but we used to be on a well. The well house and everything are still there. The people before us said they never even tried to see if it worked.
I know @Hojack is well guru here. Any thoughts or just run away And burn it.
ideally I would like...
13BT, leak on a bolt through the timing cover. This is a power steering tensioner bracket bolt. Any idea if this need thread sealant? FIPG coat and put it back in? Only leaks when driving.
thoughts?
WARNING, multiple conference call math and attention span.
So when I rebuilt my 13BT ~2 years ago, I just had the stock turbo rebuilt. In hindsight, I should have researched more and got an upgraded turbo as the CT26 they put on the 13BT is sized wrong from the factory. I've read countless...
So we are buying a place that has a newly added shop. Metal/fab type of shop. It's a 30x50 shop, they basically used for hay storage and a truck.
The problem is where they put it. It's just in a bad spot. Is there anyway to move one of these semi easily? It's not on concrete, or even a...
Just for the stereo, and it’s old school but mine is busted and I just would like to screw on a new mast/spring setup. Just a Phillips head screw let’s you adjust hold one on.
Isssue is I can’t find one for replacement or know exactly what they are called.
Looking for some front door hinges for a 70 series, I'm not sure what the difference is in years.
Saggy hinges/worn out preferred. I don't need a full set, even just one side would work.
thanks
So I’m new to military and m416 style trailers.
is this an m416? What would be a fair price for this? New /tires. Aluminum rims. appeared to be pretty solid, some flaking paint but fairly solid overall.
Alright, so going to be rebuilding a split case, away from my shop so I’m only bringing limited tools. Does this seem like a good enough list?
3/8” metric
1/2” metric set
Extensions
Pliers
Hammers
Metric box wrenches
Larger sockets what specific sizes?
Breaker bar
Seal puller
Gear puller...
This is going to be a slow build, and who knows where it will end up.
I've always liked the pop-top setups and would have loved to have a troopy with a poptop however, I own a BJ74. With that, comes the fact of owning an FRP top, which is fiberglass. Lots of documented issues with people...
