    Riveting Clutch Plates

    Riveting Clutch Plates

    1978 FJ40 2F motor: Repair manual directs for clutch plate disassembly, that the rivets be drilled out. The manual specifies 13/64 inch drill. On the pressure plate of my FJ40, 13/64 isn’t nearly enough to drill out the rivets. I ended up with 5/16 inch hole for a clean tap out. Any ideas...

    Clutch Kit?

    That is my initial impression of the path of least resistance, I am sure something will pop up to make me regret that path 😀.

    Flywheel 101 😁

    1. Thanks for the input. 2. As you see here, two experienced folks have commented on “assembly in the correct orientation and correct order”. That is a threat briefing. 3. Ok I’ll bite…how do you know?

    Ready to put the new clutch into Bumpi’s new motor. I removed the old flywheel, cleaned it up. Now. What should I do before mating everything together? Specifically… 1. Balance? (If so shouldn’t it be balanced when the whole rotating mass is assembled??) 2. Resurface at a machine shop...

    Hi All, Restoring Bumpi, a 1978 FJ40. Bought a rebuilt motor from Man A Fre. They have got it ready, BUT…. as it turns out they have a “late” model 1979 2F engine versus the “early” model 1978 2F engine the car came with. Other than the mounting points for power steering, and higher...

    Rear fuel tank.

    I am at the point to install the supplemental rear fuel tank on Bumpi. Any one with experience have any words of wisdom about; 1. Installing the tank. 2. Configuring the tank to supply a TBI system. Cheers! JB
