    2H injection pump suddenly leaks at the the output flanges, even though they are all tight??

    After driving around yesterday, I noticed a diesel fuel smell and checked under the hood. The injection pump had fresh fuel all around the output fuel line flanges. I put a wrench on them and they were all tight. That’s the question; why would they leak all of a sudden when they were nice and...

    2H injection pump leak at input pipe issue

    After rejoicing that all the various leaks had been solved, another depressing wet spot was noticed after a drive recently. I‘ve replace the rear main seal, the oil pan seal, the side cover seals. I’ve had multiple fuel injectors serviced (lapped) to resolve fuel leaks at the injectors. So, it...

    Unboxed the EZ Power Steering kit, installing on a RHD Troopy

    After debating which way to go to get power steering in this truck, I decided to go in the electronic direction. Mainly, I wanted it to be easy for “me” to install. Some of the welding needed for the Saginaw conversion, I couldn’t do with my welder. And there are other issues with the hydraulic...

    H55F swap into HJ47 issues

    After a few years of procrastination, I’ve finally swapped the H41 out for a new H55F (1981 HJ47). Not without multiple issues. Even though I’ve rebuilt a couple of transfer cases in the past. This one wasn’t as simple. First attempt to fit the transfer case while under the truck was...

    Air in the diesel fuel injection system causing a leak?

    I just had to replace a seal in one of my twin fuel filters and afterwords I'm seeing fuel leak out one of the injectors. I'm wondering if me not bleeding the first injector is causing the leak. Anyone have this problem before. I know air in the system is bad, but I bled the system at the fuel...

    Replaced my leaking transfer case output seal, still leaking, help!

    My 81 HJ47 has developed a leak at the transfer case output seal. I installed a speedy sleeve and new seal. It still leaks. I did see here somewhere that if the output shaft has any play in it, I have a bearing going south and that's why it won't seal. Any confirmation on this. Or any other...

    Need some help, my fuel gauge quit working on my HJ47

    I've looked here on the site and haven't seen anything that yet solves my problem. My 1981 HJ47's fuel gauge just all of a sudden stopped working. It reads as if it 's dead empty. I pulled the sending unit out and it reads correctly on the ohm meter. I thought I didn't have voltage at the...

    For Sale  1988 FJ62 with 5.3 Vortec 4L60E conversion

    The truck for sale is my daily driver and has been since I bought it in 2008. I had it converted to the 5.3 Vortec soon after I drove it home from St. Louis Mo. I realized my original Toyota motor with 240000 miles was spent and underpowered. The prospect of rebuilding a 160 HP (at most)...

    Front doors wont close with new weatherstripping installed?

    My Hj47 front doors won't close now after new paint and new weather stripping. Has anyone had this issue after getting the doors repaired and re-installed?

    I just rebuilt the transfercase in my Troopy and within 2 weeks my transfercase in my 62 went out.

    2H fuel injection pump install question

    I got my pump back from the shop and am ready to reinstall it. I now realise the manual suggested marking the gear positions before removal of the pump. I wrongly thought the numbered stampings would be easy to re-align. It seems that I can't get the three gears to all line together. If I get 2...

    Do all 2H deisel heads have a Kangaroo stamped on them?

    I just got my head back from the machine shop and I see that the head has a kangaroo stamped on it. Is that a Toyota thing because a lot of these trucks were sent to Australia? All you diesel guys probably know this, but I'm new to the diesel world.
