    Glow plug timer oddity

    I've been kicking this idea around for a long time...was going to try and find a scrapped timer to start from....but it may be best to start from scratch. I would like to incorporate the existing temp sensor, overheat cutout and afterglow resistor as well. Just to be sure my laziness during...

    Rancho RS9000XL

    Yes I am that gent....I'll be up to to see you at some point in the near future. An update to the Rancho's... the eyelets are too small to fit the stock studs and at $160 / shock I did not want to drill out the bushings or scab them together. Back to the drawing board....will likely go...

    Rancho RS9000XL

    Hi Forum, I'm having a slight issue....I just cancelled my Rancho shock order as I discovered that PartSource was going to sell me RS9000X for the front shocks and RS9000XL for the rear. (the XL's are the ones I want). While I'm not opposed to the 9000X's, they definetly don't look as cool as...

    Alternator brush holder and volt. regulator

    Think I figured it out....with the help of the friendly folks at 4wheel. Apparently there are different styles of brush holders...ones with 2 little diodes in the brushholder....and ones without two little diodes in the holder. The reason the lead fished down thru the body was so it could...

    Suspension Plans...am I too saggy?

    I'm in Ontario......as mentioned, I don't want to lift the truck anymore.....but I guess I'll need to go up at least 2 more inches if I replace with stock stuff. Is there any better aftermarket products that do not provide extra lift. I'll read up on pinion seal replacement as well...thanks...

    Clutch fluid leak

    I had the same problem yesterday with my slave cylinder while I was trying to leave my campsite on a holiday Monday. The fluid would squirt out from under the rubber boot as fast as I could have my helper pour it in the resevoir. Since I was out in the middle of the bush (luckily I was...

    LJ78 Hitch options

    The receiver is welded in. Was easy welding the front of it (front of the rear?!?) Welding it to the rear was tricky not much room between the crossmember and fuel tank. The hitch is a standard 4" drop and I drilled the pin hole vertical. Position is just about perfect and have about 1/2"...

    LJ78 Hitch options

    This is a pic of the receiver that I made (100% custom). Its a peice of square tube welded thru the crossmember. The pin that holds the hitch is behind the crossmenber and is vertical. This had the accidental benefit that the hitch cannot be removed when the rear doors are closed. I also...

    Just an update, the windsheild rubber from the ENS Mine trucks do not need the chrome strips, apparently has a built-in locking strip.

    winsheild weatherstrip trim

    Hmmm, the rubber is being sent over to me from ENS. They said they did not have the one for the BJ70 but that the one from their mine trucks would fit.....perhaps that means it is the non-trim version? I do like the bling-factor of the trim though! I could probably simulate this with some...

    winsheild weatherstrip trim

    Hey Guys, Has anybody ever sourced a replacement for the chrome trim that goes around the groove in the windsheild rubber weatherstripping? Local Toyota dealer says their obsolete and ENS can get them but they would have to order them from different corners of the world. Looks like just a...

    What does 8b4 look like?

    Hey Guys, I'm having my '87 BJ70's body done. The PO had a quick-n-dirty paint job done so I don't know what the original colour looked like. The stock color is 8B4, which I've seen listed as Dark Blue Poly, Dark Blue Met, Gun Barrel Grey. Does anyone have their Cruiser in this colour...
