    Advice on putting a 74 tub on my 78 fj40

    Good to know. Next time you're with your cruiser if you don't mind snapping a pic that would be awesome.

    Advice on putting a 74 tub on my 78 fj40

    From what I can gather, the 74 will line up with all the frame mounts. I gather the holes will also line up with my oem seat brackets, tranny cover, roll bar. Is that correct? The dash will be a little different as it doesn't have the seatbelt light and the defrost vent holes on each side...

    Topnault complete 1978 tub-first impression

    Thank you for posting this info. Maybe this has been answered and I missed it, but from the pics it looks like there aren't any threads for the spare tier carrier is that correct? If there is, is there the backer plate welded in place to support the load like on the OEM tub? If not I can just...

    Any ideas of what this bracket on my frame is for?

    Top of the photo, above the tow hook holes. One on each side. I have looked at some other stock photos and haven't seen them on others (and the bolts aren't stock). Any ideas?

    Anyone have a good starting point for me to learn about de-smogging? Pic of my engine...

    Well, I'm in trouble. I read your post and have no clue about half of what you're saying. Ha! Thanks everyone for chiming in!

    Anyone have a good starting point for me to learn about de-smogging? Pic of my engine...

    1978. I know I'm missing the VSV, but it looks like I have a ABV, which is sometimes removed during de-smogging? I'm not really a mechanic, but I'm always wanting to learn. I'd like to know how my 40 was de-smogged, what is missing, what they did, etc. just to make sure I'm not overlooking...

    TP Auto Parts Store -- Complete Sets of FJ40/FJ45 (72-78/79 - 83) Body Parts and Assemblies

    Good to hear. I think people are more than happy to wait an extra month or two if it means getting backing plates, captive nuts, roll bar supports, etc. Thanks for at least listening to our feedback! Also, can I buy just the rear hardtop brace? The piece that adjoins the two top sides...

    TP Auto Parts Store -- Complete Sets of FJ40/FJ45 (72-78/79 - 83) Body Parts and Assemblies

    Tim, will the -78 tubs come with the spare tire carrier backer plates? How about the roll bar supports? I think you said previously that the holes would not be pre-drilled/tapped, is that correct?

    Are these holes/bolts on my wheel wells spec? If so, what are they for?

    Thanks. Man, that's a good looking paint job. One day....

    Are these holes/bolts on my wheel wells spec? If so, what are they for?

    They look like OEM toyota bolts, but they don't seem to do anything. I'm taking this thing apart and I can't remember anything being there, and there isn't anything underneath supported by these bolts. 78 US spec 40. That's a top-down pic of the drivers side rear wheel well, the four empty...

    Good stuff. I sold my cruiser after high school to pay for my mission too. 24 years later I finally got another one and I'm slowly chipping away. Looking forward to seeing your updates.

    Is that firewall schematic for specific years? Could you point me to where you found that? Thanks!

    Another piece from my mystery box. Any ideas what this gasket is?

    From my box of random stuff from the PO. Any ideas? Thanks!

    Anyone know where to find pics of what this is supposed to look like?

    I didn't even think of searching the classifieds! Really appreciate your reply and help. That was exactly what I was looking for.

    Anyone know where to find pics of what this is supposed to look like?

    1978 hard top upper sides/rear cross member. From what I can tell, this rotted area on the hard top is supposed to be flat/follow contour, correct? Hoping to see a pic if anyone has one/knows where to look of what a clean one looks like. Also, it looks like there's a seal on the ends of the...

    Factory Grab Bar Question...

    I was wondering what those holes were for. Thanks.

    Factory Grab Bar Question...

    That's what I figured. I guess that's why I have regular bolts fastened to the windshield, rather than the black-handled fastener (because that bar gets in the way of the black handles). I'll be taking it off and patching when I paint. Yes, carpet is coming out and is the reason for some of...
