I'm in the process of wiring everything up to the new wiring harness (Kwik Wire) for my 72 FJ40 and have an interesting issue going on. I have also installed a new turn signal on the column and thought I had everything wired up properly per the various diagrams that I have been using. My issue...
Would love to replace all of the springs in my driver and passenger side seats, but would settle for replacing the one metal spring that has been broken as you can see in the photograph below. Does anyone know of a company that sells these springs new? Thanks in advance!
I have been studying @Coolerman's wiring diagram for '72 FJ40s and I see that the following wires on the turn signal switch connect:

I finally got the wheel off! Success! Thanks for everyone's input. The rubber gasket that has the spirals in it got destroyed, but already have a new one ordered from Specter Off Road.
Guys I have a steering wheel puller and every how to video I watch has a steering wheel that has 2 places for bolts to screw into and, as you can see from my photo I do not have those. How do I use the puller without those holes?
I tested the switch and it is bad. Went to AutoZone thinking it was a universal part and when I got it home it is too small to fit. Does anyone know based on my image if this is original with the 72 FJ40? Have a Chevy 350 and not sure if PO replaces tranny as well. Does anyone know where I can...
