    Rear Vent Flap

    I got a new exhaust put on and had them exit the pipe behind the DS rear tire versus straight out of the rear as the OE configuration was. I'm getting some smelly exhaust in the cabin and I believe it is coming in through the vents in the rear - the plastic flaps are no longer present and the...

    In need of some guidance - not beating on the product, I'm just stupid... Purchased a set of '62 cables from Urban Land Cruiser and the kit comes with an 'OEM fusible link'.

    Rear Seat Belts FJ62- Were they factory?

    Texas recently passed legislation that all occupants (regardless of age or seating position - front/rear) are to be secured by a seatbelt. I don't have rear belts installed but the anchor points are present. Did all FJ62s come equipped with rear belts, only some, etc? I am concerned since the...

    Spring Identification

    Just as the title states... I pulled these springs from my 62 awhile back and cleaned them up today and noticed the stamps on them (previously not visibile due to dirt, etc). Does anyone know if these are OEM, etc? Thanks!
