Has anyone ever made a reverse light lens for a 73? There are some very similar lenses I’ve seen online that might be usable with a little tweaking. I know I saw a thread on here at one point that discussed this but I can’t seem to find it.
Does this seem a tooth off? I’m running a little rough but I thought if I was a whole tooth off it would be really rough. I think I’m supposed to be pointed between 3&4 right?
I did a disc swap on my '73 FJ40 and I picked up a couple knuckle arms at a swap meet. It wasn't until I got the knuckle arms all cleaned up and painted that I noticed that they had different hole diameters for the tie rid ends. I guess there are different TRE's with large and small diameter...
Question for those more versed in F engines than I am. I was trying to get my 1973 started after a long restore. I finally got it to fire and was letting it run for 15 to 20 seconds at a time while I fine tuned it. Well, it seized up on me at one point. I discovered that my distributor was set...
I bought what I thought was a late model FJ40 axle and stole the outers to do a disc swap on my 73 FJ40. I’m confused by the rotors. When I search this style rotor the closest thing I can find are rotors for an 85 mini truck. My question is, what’s the best rout to go to find discs and calipers...
Has anyone rebuilt an early water pump before. I was going to try to rebuild, or at least clean up, the pump from my 73 but I broke the wire clip. I’m not even sure what that clip did or how to disassemble this thing. Anyone have any tips or knowledge on this?
I stupidly decided to take the air cleaner bracket off of my FJ40’s F engine and broke the corner head bolt. I welded a nut to it and was able to get it out but the little spacer sleeve came with it. Has anyone ever replaced these before? I assume they are needed to make sure the head sits right...
I have a 1987 FJ60 that I just put a “new to me” 2F engine in. I have been dialing everything thing in (carb tuning etc) but I have an issue that I can’t figure out. It starts right up and will idle all day long. I can even drive it on the dirt roads around my house in first and second gear...
So I’ve almost got my 87 FJ60 back on the road. I finally finished putting a 2F back in it, I think I’ve got all the smog connected, rebuilt carb etc. I’ve got it timed close enough that it fires and runs, but only on full choke. I’ve been going through all my vacuum lines trying to see if I’ve...
I’ve got a fuel delivery issue on my FJ60. It started a few times and idled a little ruff, now I can’t get fuel to the carburetor. I’ve checked all the lines and they all fill with fuel to the pump but I can’t get fuel up the line to the carburetor. Any help or tips would be very much appreciated.
Could I get someone to help me get my ignition coil hooked back up? I’ve finally got all my smog taken care of but I can’t figure out how to connect this new coil.
thanks!
I’ve got a 1966 FJ40 with front wheel cylinders that have been leaking for years. I cleaned off all the built up crap and I don’t think I can rebuild these cylinders. I’ve got some cylinders from a 73 that I could probably rebuild, but I don’t know if I can use these on a 66 or which ones go on...
I was wondering if anyone knows if you can do a knuckle out disc brake swap from an FJ62 to an FJ40? I’ve got a buddy who has all the parts from an FJ62. I know people have used FJ60 parts, but I can’t find any info on the 62.
thanks!
I was wondering if anyone knows how important the smog ports on the carburetor are for passing California smog? I’ve got an 87 FJ60 that I’m putting back together and the carb I’ve got does not have all of the ports for the smog lines. I was going to try plugging them and doing a smog test. If...
I’ve almost got my 87 FJ60 (affectionately called Jaws by my kids) back on the road after seizing my 2F with only 140k miles (I couldn’t sleep for a few days I was so upset). My current issue is that I’ve got an aftermarket cruise control unit on it and the part that attaches to the transfer...
