Hey all. I am trying to diagnose a clutch system that isn't pressurizing. This is a resto-mod scenario using OE equivalent 81-85 master and slave cylinder bought from reputable vendors. I have tried numerous bleed methods and attempts and am getting no pressure. Everything in the system is...
Has anyone run a Holley Sniper return line back through the OE gas outlet port on the side of an interior gas tank? I have a 68-72 tank on my 66 and it is brand new (thank you Toyota!). I am curious if the return line pressure (supposed to be 3-6#) will be enough to overcome the pressure of...
I'm in the midst of a disc conversion and didn't know if anyone would want the old drum backing plates and cylinders. Happy to pack them up and ship them. You pay shipping. Can text photos if you like. All parts are accounted for. Axle is a 78. Hate to junk them if someone can use them...
Regarding the bottom of the pumpkin, has anyone had to cut off the protector tube nub surrounding the drain plug and replace?? I am rebuilding some axles and it is FUBAR'd. I can weld a nut to the existing drain plug and get that out no problem. I can also measure the existing one on the...
As stated in the thread title, this is a [January] 1966 40 series. I'm a NOOB, so bear that in mind. Steering was not entirely on my radar, but it is now. I have discovered something kind of dangerous and will replace all the involved parts but I want to get to the bottom of why it is the...
Hey all, I am looking at doing some front axle work and had some questions. I have a 66 and my axle is ball and claw, converted to disc, spring under. I will not be hardcore wheeling this rig, tho obviously I don't know what it has been through up to now. Apart from some breather issues and...
Hey all!
Before I continue, I want to alert the "purist" crowd to avert your eyes. My girl is in the resto-mod category with Chevy 327, some poorly thought out dash components, 17" TRD wheels with 255/75/17 tires, aftermarket heat, and disc brakes. Tranny is a 5 speed, though it and the...
Hey all!! My 1966 40 series has been completely toggled out by the previous owner, including lights and wipers. They work, but it is not very nice to look at. I have been searching for info on the headlight switch and the wiper switch for 1966- both are hard to source- definitely not still...
Hey everybody, I was wondering about the poly gas tanks for a 66 FJ40. Curious about any pros/cons. They are listed as '68 and forward but have also seen that simple mods can be done to fit into my '66.
I have a dual tank set up (16 or so gallon 2nd tank), so the extra 4 gallons on an OEM...
