    Anyone keep their spare tire inside the cargo area?

    I've been trying to decide where to put Kaylee's spare tire. My options each have some kind of major hassle associated with it. 1. The factory location on the 2nd to last crossmember on the frame, is currently a corroded, pretzeled mess. It's one of the frame pieces scheduled to be removed...

    How to superclean your engine bay

    Yes, one of the items on Kaylee's to-do list is cleaning a very grimy, oily, greasy, looks-like-it-hasn't-been-touched-in-decades engine bay. But I've never done that, and I didn't like the idea of water getting into some of those areas. I also have to admit, I didn't think a cleaning would...

    Tricks to removing the cargo area access panel to the fuel level sender?

    One of this week's to-do items was to figure out why my gas gauge is dead. Suspect #1 was the fuel level sender, parked over the gas tank. Toyota engineers very politely gave us an access hatch through the floor of the cargo area. God bless 'em, and mine was a refreshing perfect medium blue...

    how to pull out old windshield reservoir tank

    OK, folks, time for today's Profoundly Dumb Question. How the heck do you remove the windshield reservoir tank? Mine is leaking badly at the bottom, but I can't see far enough down the sides to determine if the tank is cracked or perhaps a seal is just going. I'm also not sure how/where to...

    ID an oddball thing on the dashboard

    OK, folks, anyone have any idea what this is? Installed immediately below the fuse box left of the steering wheel. I have no idea what it is, and the PO didn't know either. Doesn't seem to be connected to anything and the knob spins freely. Tried doing a search in the forums, and no luck...

    Starting the long fixit list on Kaylee; from neglected to spoiled

    Hey everyone. Now that the "wow, we have a new toy" phase is wearing off, we've done some assessment of Kaylee's fixit list, and the list will keep us busy awhile. Near the top of the list are hard hot starts, and dieseling at shut-down. Cold starts are easy; she fires up after only a few...

    Need to replenish the power steering fluid

    Doing my first in depth fluids check on our new-to-us FJ60, and the power steering fluid is a little low. Found in the owner's manual that I should refill with Dextron II or Dextron ATF. Fast forward 40 years, and I'm wondering if the Dextron VI is the best choice, since that seems to be the...

    Locksmith book for the FJ60 locks?

    Good evening everyone, my first post. We're officially the proud owners of an '83 FJ60. She's a solid driver but has a lot of little things to be fixed up. One of them is the locks. I've read a few threads here about either cleaning out the locks or replacing them, and we're going to try to...
