So we just took all the glass out of our body. Glass guy said the windshield molding was cheaper than a windshield, so he cut that molding to get the glass out easy.
I see threads that say there are seals available that don't take a locking strip. Are there also seals that do?
Any...
I'm thinking about power steps for my 80. The motorized ones that lower automatically with the doors. Either a complete running board style, or just a single step like this.
Amp is one if the larger players, but does not list one by application for the FJ80. Which vehicle would be the...
So a year or so, I did a complete frame off color change on my 97 chevy. Used crossfire/finish 1 products from Napa
Here's most of it. Epoxy primer, 2k primer, sealer, topcoat, clear.
The paint job turned out great, but I think it just chips too easily. The clear and paint chip off, leaving...
I'm looking for someone with a FJ60 with good rear inner fenderwells.
I need rust free as possible reinforced area where the rear seat bracket goes.
Thanks
On my 84, this is by far the worst area for rust. Passenger side is worse, but both sides need addressed.
There is reinforcement here for the rear seat mounts. That's specifically what I'm wondering about. I can cut out tge offending area and replace it with a single patch, but what about the...
Or anyone else with an opinion 🤪
So, as you know a FJ140 is the body of a FJ60 on the chassis of a FJ80.
So what does it say on the vehicle title/registration and does the state matter?
2nd question regards the front clip. Inner fender wells specifically. How did you handle it? The...
We're moving along on our FJ140 project, so I'm ready to list the running chassis for sale. This truck was running. No issues.
As you can see from the pics, the frame is in great shape with very minimal rust.
The vehicle has 149,746 miles
3.73 stock gears.
OME suspension upgrade/lift done in...
So, there's a guy with this high steer kit listed on instagram.
I want him to be legitimate, but I have serious doubts. Exact same pictures.
Could the buyer or seller @Tank5 respond?
Thanks.

I just saw a pic that got me thinking...
This is a 99 which I think is a fj100, right?
Is it common to change the low mounted one on the 80 to something like this? Anyone offer a kit, or just get used parts?
Any other models have this high mounted sway bar?
As im running brake lines, im thinking about something.
1st off - no abs.
So the line feeding the rear drops to the diff where it hits a tee that goes to each wheel. Simple and straightforward.
Now on the front, each wheel brake is fed by a separate flex. I'm assuming that is because of the...
Front left. Right in front of the engine mount.
The black plastic box is the front diff vent, the one I'm wondering about is the vertical nipple/ barb.
What hooks there? I don't remember.
This is on a 96 Lexus. My 94 FJ didn't have it, or the plastic box either.
I'm planning on remote...
I've been searching and searching, and can't find a video for rebuilding the rear locker on my 94. Heck, I can't even find a video that shows my model, let alone the internals.
There's no shortage information for the style that's on the front.
I didn't mark anything when I took it apart...
We got the hub kit from trail-gear mainly for the felt outer seals, which are great. However, I've come across a problem when installing the hub. The seal isn't centered on the bolt circle.
I've only done one side so far. And will probably drill our the holes in the other side to allow it to...
Is there a good, right to the point, thread or video on converting front drive flanges to locking hubs on an FJ80?
Something about a new location for the snap ring groove, or spacers, or short axles.
I looked around a bit and came up empty. I'm not interested in "part time kits" as I'm not...
We're pretty far along in a front axle rebuild and have fiund the axle housing to be bent. Unfortunately this wasn't noticed sooner.
It's bent outboard of the lower control arm bracket, and before the spring perch.
I can see the bend and can picture putting it in a press to straighten it, in...
Just floating this question... selling a 1984 FJ60. I know value is subject to condition and location.
I'm located in Ohio, but the FJ is currently in moab. So, those are the two markets in consideration.
