    For Sale  South Orange County CA - 1969 FJ55

    Well folks, I am entertaining the idea of letting this go. I did not realize how difficult it is to get parts for these and in my older years its not as easy for me to work on stuff like this anymore. I am asking $4500, however, I am open to offers; I am located in Southern California, South...

    This little Piggie had none.... an attempt to rebuild the 69 FJ55

    Ok. Here goes.... Don't really know a damn thing about these, so going to have a ton of questions. Hoping the front seat will be here soon (Greyhound). Got a new master cylinder and it's time to bleed the brakes. Anyone know what size the port plugs are, so I can bench bleed this thing...

    Bumper bent, cut it?

    Saw another FJ with the ends of the bumper cut off. Probably a lot easier than bending it back. Anyone else done this?

    Stock tire size

    Not sure, however, thinking the stock size was about 205/75-15. Thinking of going with a slightly taller, narrow tire. Not crazy about the 31x10.5 tires that are on there now. Any idea of the tallest/tallest/narrowest I can run on this? Provided I can buy the tires easily without special...

    Dustless Abrasive attachment for pressure washer

    Anyone ever use one of these? They look like they work pretty good, just never tried it before. I borrowed my neighbors pressure washer, but it just won't get down to the metal. There's one on the Eastwood website that's $70. Just wondering if I should go for it, thought I would ask here first...

    Bleeding brakes

    I plan on doing this as a one-man job. Going to use the tubing submerged in brake fluid. Does anyone the order on which to do this? I presume the closest to the master cylinder first? It is 3/16" ID tubing, correct?

    Cleaning inside of gas tank

    Any suggestions for this? Heard some people use Muriatic acid, let it soak for a day or so, then baking soda and vinegar. There's no sludge or anything nasty in mine, just some loose stuff. A new fuel tank is probably expensive.

    Gas tank feed line fitting

    Is this a metric flared/AN type fitting? Anyone know what size? Will an auto parts store have something generic?

    Best paint stripper?

    Looking for something that really kicks ass when it come to stripping paint. Multiple layers, down to the metal. I tried the citrus orange stuff, it works ok, however, it doesn't go deep. Any suggestions?
