    FJ62 Cold Start Issue; Fuel Rail not holding pressure

    Back story, I've had my 1988 FJ62 for about 3 years now. When I got it went on jack stands while I went through everything and cleaned it up. About a year or so ago it started having starting issues. It'll crank and crank just until you start questioning if it's actually going to start and then...

    FJ62 Color Coded Vacuum Line/Hose Diagrams

    Was working through some issues on my FJ62 today, mainly a hard start issue, but was checking everything over. Ended up realizing I had a vacuum line that was pulled when I desmogged my FJ62 a few years ago and was causing the EVAP system not to function correctly. Anyways while troubleshooting...

    Currently working on cleaning the transmission filter and swapping the fluid out. Been taking the time to clean up and repaint the pan and skid plate while I have it off, but noticed the rear braided rubber flexible trans cooler lines are soaked. Not sure if they're leaking or if it's some...

    When to add a leaf on OME suspension

    So this weekend I finally mounted a Warn M12000, still need to wire it in, but it’s to cold for that nonsense. Anyway, I was looking at the suspension, when I was under the cruiser searching for the washer I dropped, and it doesn’t seem like I have much room for travel upward. Currently have an...

    Rear Hatch Glass

    I know my FJ62 had tint at some point in its life, but has since been removed. The issue is whatever PO that removed the tint used a razor blade to scrape it off and absolutely messed up the defogger lines. So only about three of the lines currently work. I’ve been wanting to get my FJ62 tinted...

    Master Cylinder and Brake “Upgrade” Questions

    So, the brakes on my FJ62 have never been “Good”. They’re not bad as long as you drive a little defensively. However, my wife’s car was just wrecked (waiting on the insurance to say if it’s totaled or not) and while we currently have a rental. I’m not sure how long we’ll have that and there’s a...

    Are sway bars worth keeping?

    The other day I had to drop the gas tank for some other issues, but like everything with cruisers one issue leads to another. I had to remove the rear sway bar mounts to get the tank out and that’s when I figure out why one sway mount had a hole in it and the other didn’t. PO must have removed...

    FJ62 Rear Drive Line Noise

    Since, I've bought my FJ62, I've had a bad drive line noise coming from the rear. I've slowly have been fixing and replacing stuff and still have the noise.

    Console Power Source

    Have an Smitty Bilt console installed currently in my FJ62. Not super happy with, build quality, fit and finish, and the lack of being able to add switches to it nicely. I found some one locally that's interest in buying it so that's great and I just ordered the Cruiser Crap console to replace...

    Antenna grommet

    I recently picked up the wagon gear antenna mount for my FJ62. PO had installed some aftermarket AM/FM antenna that doesn’t fit well at all. So I figured I’d try going the route of a CB antenna with a AM/FM and CB splitter. However, the wagon gear mount requires the use of the factory grommet...

    Forgot where this guy goes (FJ62)

    Found a disconnected hose on the passengers side of the engine bay. It’s coming from the firewall next to the washer fluid reservoir. Kinda pointed the hose at where it’s coming from. Any idea where it connects?

    Finally a working hatch lock!

    First off, this is all thanks to @ToyotaMatt over at Vintage TEQ Parts. When I purchased my ‘88 FJ62 the rear hatch wouldn’t lock and the key didn’t work. After a bit of research I realized one of the PO’s swapped out the FJ62 power lock cylinder with a FJ60 cylinder. I had no idea what the...
