Well, I sure will hate to see it go, but its time to part ways with my favorite truck.
Body and frame are from a 1985 FJ60 which came from California and is completely rust free.
Drivetrain is from a 1987 HJ60 diesel which I imported from Canada several years ago.
The engine was rebuilt after...
Wad of money...check. Bringing both trucks to Canada...not going to happen.
I'd love to do it myself, but am a full time mom of a 2 1/2 year old and on top of that run full time business which keeps me up to the wee hours of the night...so I really don't have any free time, or...
I'm hoping to find a mechanic to perform a diesel swap....drivetrain from my '87 HJ60 (5 spd. tranny, 2H motor) into a '85 FJ60 body and frame. Both vehicles are complete, but have been sitting for a few years. The frame of the HJ is super rusty and I had to stop driving it several years back...
Early this year, the EDIC motor on my '87 HJ60 was malfunctioning, one day it started switching on and off on its own, and would continue switching on and off with the key in the off position. I sprayed it with some penetrating spray and it was working normally for months.
Then the other...
So I'm getting ready for a big move (cali to michigan) in my FJ and am going to be towing a little utility trailer. I went out today to make sure the trailer lights work (should have done this sooner) and discovered that the relay/adapter where the left turn, right turn and brake go in, and...
So I need to ship my 1987 HJ60 from California to Michigan sometime in the next couple of months. I've gotten a ton of quotes from different shipping companies and don't really know who to use...if any. If anyone out there with experience shipping vehicles could recommend a good reliable...
I need to ship my 1987 HJ60 to Michigan sometime in the next couple of months. Its runs but needs to be towed due to its a large hole in its extremely rusty frame. Will pay. Thanks.

So I need to replace the headlight/turn signal switch on my '87 HJ and was wondering if I can use one from an FJ or if I need to find a 24 volt switch? Thanks.

Got it from a friend as a work-trade. He bought it, drove it for a little while, realized it needed a...
No click from under the dash.....they are the brights not the headlights - the headlights work fine. It happened one night and then didn't happen the next night - and I haven't really driven it anywhere since then.
So the past two nights when I have tried to turn my brights on either thay haven't come on at all, and I've clicked them a few more times until they do come, or they come on after a few seconds. They've never done this before and I am wondering if it is an electrical issue or if I just need to...
So I'm looking for an FJ that really wants to be a diesel. Maybe one with a blown engine......it has to be rust free and I would prefer an '85 or later. I am in northern California, but would be willing to go to Nevada for the right FJ.
