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...
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.

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.
So I need to tow a nonrunning 60 from Santa Rosa to Placerville asap. If anyone out there has an empty trailor heading in that direction or has a truck that could tow an LC and has a little bit of free time...I would gladly cover your expenses. Or if anyone out there knows of a cheaper way to...
Need to tow a 60 from Santa Rosa to Auburn/Placerville area. Willing to pay, but hoping not to pay as much as a tow truck or uhaul would cost me. Can't do it with my HJ because my frame is way too rusty and my trailor lights don't work.
So I'm getting ready to swap the drivetrain from my '87 Canadian HJ into an '84 FJ and am wondering what parts I need for the swap and where to get them? I've been reading up on the subject and am currently leaning toward going 12V after the swap....both trucks are complete so my options are...
I'm looking to trade my Thule Excursion rooftop luggage carrier for a Thule (or other good brand) of roof top box of a different shape.
The Excursion is the short fat kind that opens from the back - looking to trade it for the long skinny kind that opens from the side.
It's in excellent...
I just put in a new valve cover gasket in my 2H and am wondering what the correct torque spec for my valve cover / cylinder head cover is supposed to be - or does it matter? I can't seem to find it in any of my manuals. Thanks.
