    Shifter gets stuck when moving left to right

    My 60 has 300k miles on the 4 speed. Needs a little double clutching to get into 3rd smoothly but otherwise has been great, but a new issue came up recently. In neutral when moving the shifter from left to right it gets stuck and does not want to come back to the left / 1-2 side. A little tap...

    Voltage Drop - common ground or power wire issues?

    My dash voltage gauge and Sniper ECU both read low voltages, especially when the lights are on / there's more current draw. I threw parts at it because that works sometimes...not this time. Fresh alternator rebuild and new fusible link and no change. That work needed to happen anyway. The...

    Alternator Rebuild - DIY or advice on a good shop

    My alternator is just barely keeping up and it's time for refresh before I get stranded. Voltage drops below 12V when lights are on for a little while. Checked power and grounds. All seem good. I'm thinking about doing it myself but wish there was a writeup. I didn't find anything but please...

    Sniper Build Thread

    I've been benefitting a ton from the various Sniper content here...and all the other content too. Thanks all! I figured I'd share some details of my setup in case it helps others in the future. Fuel Tank: I started the project here with the plan to install the pump in the tank. My tank did not...

    Which is fuel pickup and which is the return?

    Hit a question as I'm starting to get things back together for the Sniper install. I am mounting the fuel pump external because my tank does not have the flat spot to mount the in tank pump. I cut out a section of the feed hard line where the fuel pump, pre and post filter will go. I soldered on...

    Free Exhaust in Lafayette CO

    I’m not sure if this is the right place to post this. I didn’t see a marketplace forum. Apologize in advance if I’m getting it wrong. I bought a new exhaust from the dealer for my FJ60…for no good reason. I pulled the old one and found that it’s in good shape. Photos below. Free to anyone who...

    OEM Brake Rotor Securing Bolts

    Rebuilding my front axle and just got some new OEM rotors (43512-69016) but they do not have the holes for the securing bolts. Are the two bolts that hold the rotor to the hub needed? Doesn’t seem like it since studs pinch it in place, but guess I can drill holes for them if needed. Any...

    Wheel Bearing? (video)

    I've been hearing a 'clack' sound when I'm coming to stop, but don't hear it at any other times. I figured it was something suspension related but found the source is actually the right front wheel. The noise shown in the video happens with the hubs are lock or unlocked (ie, spinning the diff or...

    Heater Core Compatibility...stuck in driveway...

    I finally got to my heater core job today. Not too bad if you remove everything. Here I am ready to install my replacement core from SOR and one of the inlets is at an angle! Frustrating. None of local parts shops have them, but I might have luck looking for another Toyota that shares that...

    Headlight Washer Block-Off Plates

    I like the look of the earlier FJ60s without the headlight washers (and I don't really need them), so I removed them. The three holes on each side that are left behind didn't look great so I made some plate to cover them up. These can be 3D printed and the files are HERE. I'd much rather have...

    Charcoal Canister Rebuild

    This post was a great guide that convinced me to try this rather than just replacing it with the ACDelco 215-153. I will follow up once I have more miles on it and can confirm that all is working. A few weeks before doing the rebuild, I had used carb cleaner (B-12) to free up the check valves...

    New FJ60 Owner + Stereo Install

    First, thanks to everyone for the great content here. I’m a new FJ60 owner, but my background in mechanical engineering and automotive. It’s been really fun learning this truck through the factory manual and the mountains of info here. I’m the second owner of my 85’ and I feel a ton of...

    Evap System VCV Photos

    I working on getting my FJ60 ready for emissions testing in CO and could use some photos of the passenger side VCV and charcoal canister. I have the vacuum diagram, but the previous owner seems to have partially desmogged the evap system and I want to make sure everything is in the right spot. A...
