    BJ60 to replace FJ62?

    Hi all. Do any of you have experience with both an FJ62 and a Canadian spec BJ60 with 5-sp? How to they compare for highway driving, say running 31” tires? Can a BJ60 maintain 65-70 mph without too much issue? I have come across a 1984 BJ60 for sale that I have been in email contact with...

    33x10.5 as spare tire

    Greetings, Sometime in the near future (tomorrow if I can find time), I will be getting new tires for my FJ62. I put on a HFS lift around two years ago and decided to wait until I needed new tires to upsize. Now I need new tires and am wondering if a 33x10.5 on stock rim will fit in the...

    1998 Toyota Camry - Denver

    Hopefully this forum is not just for selling cruisers. If it is, I apologize. I am trying to get ready to move to Michigan and would rather not have to move three vehicles, so I am trying to sell my commuter car. It is a 1998 Camry LE. It has the 4-cyl engine, 119k-ish miles, the usual...

    Castor shim position.

    Hi guys. Finally after about a year of it sitting on my back patio, I am installing the HFS suspension on my FJ62. I got the front done last weekend and plan to do the rear this coming weekend. I got 1.5" longer than stock shackles so I decided to put on some 2-degree caster shims. I put...

    Tranny is toast

    Today on the way to the first ultasound appointment to see kid #2, my transmission started to slip badly to the point that it wouldn't move anymore (I missed the appointment-very dissapointed). Last night I did a drain and fill on the transmission because yesterday my tranny fluid temp idiot...

    Spring bushings

    As mentioned in another post, the bushings that came with my HFS suspension kit when installed in the new springs are about 3/32" or so wider than the inside width of the HFS shackles I also got. The inside width of the shakles is the same as the stock shackles, FYI. When I mentioned this to...

    Suspension sway questions

    Suspension swap questions (sorry) OK, I realize this is the type of question that has been asked thousands of times already. I have read the posts in the FAQ and did a search, but I am asking again anyway. :flipoff2: I am starting to look at 2-3” spring lifts for my FJ62. I thought the...

    Auto transmission coolers

    Do any of you 62 guys (or gals, if such exists) have auxilliary transmission oil coolers? A couple of weeks ago I was coming home from a weekend fishing/camping trip and my transmission oil temp light came on while driving up a hill on the highway. I pulled over to the shoulder right away and...
