    Slight vibration after 2.5” lift

    I’ve been doing a lot of research on the typical vibration after one installs a lift (I have OME 2.5” lift with Bilstein shocks, both DS balanced recently, and new u joints on rear one, transfer case rebuilt). I’m now starting to look at pinion angles and just need some guidance on the best way...

    Holy hell…43 year old bushings

    Doing a lift kit this weekend and so far, everything has been going smoothly until I ran into these buggers. Are there any tips or tricks for getting out these original shackles with rockhard bushings off - that I believe are all factory. I’ve been hammering on the shackle and using crowbar, but...

    This happen to anyone else?

    Ordered lift kit and got these from very reputable vendor here. Currently reaching out to find out I’m not seeing double. I assume the rears should be a different part # - or maybe this is correct?

    BFG A/T vs Muds on dry/wet sand?

    Given the same rig suspension, vehicle weight, wheel/tire size, air pressure and environmental conditions for wet or dry sand (50% sand driving and 50% crushed pavement)…is there a better choice over the other? A/T vs Muds. I’m assuming muds do better in wet or dry sand…just speaking to BFG here.

    We need a 2024 local meetup (Atlanta and surrounding area)

    Anyone interested in a spring or summer Pavement Pounder meetup? Maybe north end or somewhere central? I’m 3 years in with my 40 and only have met a few at local Worship car meet of the overcrowded C&O.

    2F side panel removal/gasket install

    I’ve done some searching for the subject and found some good information, but can anybody verify that you can replace the gasket for the 2F side panel with the engine in place and not disconnect coolant lines (just the brackets), and not the dizzy? I know it may be fiddly to slide up and out...

    Can someone help me with upgrading to a newer igniter coil?

    I think it may be time to update my Ignition/Coil unit and just need some guidance on what would be the best option for a non-brainer swap with minimal headaches. Was hoping someone can chime in here and help guide me. And yes, "if it aint broke" does apply here, but I am updating everything...

    Anyone recommend a starter?

    I still have the original starter on my 1981 US spec FJ40 and after trying to turn the truck over the past few months, it does start to bog down and struggle and feels like it’s on its way out. Therefore I’m looking for a “newer tech” gear reduction starter. I just need more “ooomph”! Can...

    Radiator/AC condenser interference advice

    I’ve been trying to sort this one out for a few months now, but in the pictures below, you can see my vintage air condenser mounting plate to the radiator is not straight, and therefore binds underneath my hood ever so slightly (on passenger side). I have a small piece of rubber molding right...

    Strange carb cooling fan issue.

    Need some help on this one and looked at every archived topic around Cooling Fan Sensor issues. I have a 1981 US Spec FJ40 for reference that is de-smogged but retains the cooling fan and relay/ecu and original crusty sensor. I have reached out to a couple of my "go-tos" like @GA Architect ...

    I currently have a NOS Vintage Air unit (part # 75080-LTZ-A) that was installed by the PO on my '81 US Spec 40...worked great for about 1 year and then on a 2 hour trip over the summer into the GA Mountains, I noticed that it was no longer blowing cold air. Skip ahead a few months, I made sure...

    Quick Product Review: HeritageCruisers tool-bag anchors / brackets

    Been talking to clint (@cwags12 ) over at HeritageCruisers for what seems to be about the better half of 2023 on getting some tool-bag brackets made with some of his fancy 3D printing. And sure enough - he sent me the first set off the printer and I must say they are really nice. So if you are...

    Project Review: FJ Company's Integrated Chasing Lights for the FJ40

    Wanted to post a small project (that took way too long) that was completely inspired (possibly stolen out of love) by The FJ Company. I just love what they do, how they do it and the vision that have set (and bar) for the classic 4x4 industry. Clearly they have a very expensive final product and...

Have a Redline Cruisers 2.5" Ultimate lift in the future (Bilstein shocks, procomp springs I believe) and want to replace my OEM shackles when I install the suspension kit.

    Anyone here run wires through the factory roll bar?

    Anyone run speaker wires or even electrical wires through the Toyota Factory roll bar before? Looking for any tips or advice on what you learned.

    Cheap oil filter wrench for 90915-YZZD3 (Toyota OEM smaller filter)

    Anyone know of a true fit oil filter wrench - cup style (or similar) for the newer smaller filters. Amazon turned up nothing - or just a bit confusing. I may have to take one of my YZZD3's down to the zone and match one.
