Does anyone have some “newish” hood and/or windshield latches? Trying to keep them as OEM as possible.
Or what’s the best way to clean up the stock ones I have?
Thanks to @POTATO LAUNCHER for installing the Sniper EFI kit on my 78 FJ40. The difference is amazing! Runs like a new truck and as always Casey’s attention to detail is second to none. Couldn’t be happier! Ended up using Redline adaptor and McRobb GenII Power Surge for fuel delivery. Very...
Looking for some stock air cleaner parts. I took mine apart last year to get it all powder coated and the coated lost several pieces. I have the top and bottom of the air cleaner but missing the wing nuts for top, bolts to mount, and gasket. Where can I get these besides Specter?
I’d like to repaint my heater box in my 1978 FJ40. I thought I had seen a thread about removing the cover without draining coolant but haven’t had luck finding it again. Is this possible?
Looking to put Holley Sniper EFI kit on my 40. I was wanting to get the Mosley Motors kit with adaptor and in tank fuel pump but can’t get a response from them in over a month now. I put my 1978 FJ40 in Holley’s website and it says nothing available for that vehicle. Just looking to order...
Looking to put Bilsteins on this weekend but having trouble finding correct part numbers. I’m running 1.5” shackles up front and 2.5” inch on back with 285/75-16 KM3. I was thinking 33-185606 and 33-062518. What are you guys running?
Thanks to Mud member @POTATO LAUNCHER , I’m finally back on the road. Can’t say thank you enough to Casey and all the work he put in and what he’s taught me along the way. Spent the day buffing and waxing to get that original Olive green to shine again.
Also a shoutout to @1911 for the jump...
Having trouble deciding on wheel options for my 1978 FJ40. I like the idea of the Wheel Vintiques 16" so I can run a slightly wider tire than stock steelies, but I also think I will miss the stock hub caps. Help me out and post pics with Wheel Vintiques and what size are you guys running? 16x7?
Looking for a place to order 16” wheels and BFG KM3 tires. Thinking 33” tires. I’m putting 1.5” shackles in front and 2.5” on back. Looking for generic D style wheels since I don’t want to run 10.5” wide tires on stock wheels. Wish there was more options for widened stock wheels.
Just want to see if there’s anyone on this site from Texas panhandle area. I have been working on my 1978 FJ40 for several months and I’m to a point where my knowledge isn’t allowing me to go any further. Looking for some pointers or assistance.
I believe my FJ40 came with a hardtop with ambulance doors originally. I found a 1972 hardtop with rear hatch for sale locally. What would it take to convert top to fit ambulance doors. Would the top and doors even fit my year model.
