If you purchase and pick up, you can ship to where ever you want. But it has to be in your possession. I have been offered the "arrange" shipping proposition in the past, and it becomes either a scam or a pain in the a**. Apologies for being so blunt, but it just makes life easier for...
Hello all,
Selling my Genuine Con Ferr Short rack (48" x 48") for $350. Local pick up only please. Not interested in dealing with shipping. Comes with everything you need to mount (Rack and 4 mounting brackets with hardware). Shown mounted to my 1985 Toyota land cruiser FJ60 for reference...
Ok, Its been a while since I had a chance to work on my cruiser. As I mentioned I was in the process of replacing my alternator with the new one. Well, I installed the new Alternator and...................................still have the issue. But now here is the funny part. I would turn the...
Hey Seth,
My new Alternator arrived. I have't had time to switch pulleys, but sorry for another newbie question. Will I need to upgrade any of my wires when switching from a 50 amp Alternator (which I think mine is but I haven't verified) to a 55 amp Alternator? Just want to be absolutely...

I checked all the wires from the Alt to battery and they are good. Even shook all the wiring harness with the motor running without the idle being affected. Even checked the wires going for the Fusible link as well and all are good. I will give the Alt a tap with a hammer though.
Hello Seth,
I went on the Rock Auto website and noticed that that particular Alternator as an internal regulator. Will it matter that I'm going from an external voltage regulator to an internal? In othe words, will the wiring (plugs) be different from the ones in my image? Maybe my 85 uses a...
Well, I think I found a link...to what, I don't know, but today when I started her up, the charge light did NOT come on and it stumbled like she does. I turned her off and turned her on again and the charge light turned on and she started up with no stumble. I did this about 3 or 4 times and...
