I still can't convince myself that it would cause any ill effects if there weren't already underlying issues with tranny. though it's helpful to see the different perspectives on the matter.
this iswhat he told me. My guess would be flush, to fill critical components (torque conv., cooler, lines) Then drain tranny pan, change filter, replace pan, and refill with the clean fluid you just drained.
I wasn't there and that is the work he told them to do. Although I definitely see the...
He took it to a tranny shop and had it flushed on the machine, with the pan dropped and filter changed at the same time. I talked to him 1200 miles was a conservative estimate it laste about 2500 miles from the flush. I definitely think it was the first time the fluid was ever touched. I think...
Has anyone ever heard that flushing the fluid in your high mileage (150000)A/T will cause it to fail? A friend of mine was prepping his FJ62 for sale to his brother. He heard you can/should flush the tranny to prolong the life of it like changing the oil in the motor. Well the tranny died 1200...
I have what I have been told is an F series cylinder head, completely reman with new parts(valves, springs, guides, retainers, etc. I originaly prurchased it on it's description as a landcruiser cylinder head for my 62 series. I originally posted it with pics here...
Yeah I know well enough to use toyo gasket. It's so frustrating that three of the last 5 or 6 timese I've replaced the gasket. Once in the front and twice in the rear. I keep crossing streams and the like, then I wind up with milkshake. Thanks for the advice.
After reading others encounters with the dreaded oil pan gasket i have a question. which is primarily based on my 4th or 5th defeat in the same arear. Is it easier/better to pre glue the gasket to the pan or the block? Thanks in advance.
Is the nut on the handle the only adjustment? It just seems to me there are too many different attachment points at the connections between the cables. I did need the cables adjusted not the handle it seems in good working order. not sure if there was a miscommunication either way will try first...

Usually it means you're low on brake fluid in a 62. Or the float switch on the resevoir cap has gone bad. One or the other. My rear brake issue is that without the drums regularly adjusted you run the risk of over exteending yhe piston in the wheel cylinder to...
Can someone be so kind as to tell me how to adjust the cables for my stock e-brake setup(fj62). It all looks like it's in good enough condition to work properly if adjusted. Plus it'll save me from having to keep climbing underneath and turning the adjuster over and over. Thanks in advance, Roger
I have a completely rebuilt cylinder head casting #80032. I was informed it is like a '68-'72. I originally thought it was for a 2f and posted it in this ad w/pictures https://forum.ih8mud.com/sale-parts/344002-completely-rebuilt-2f-head.html . It even has new toyo valves, new everything. I'm...
I was wrong it's an F head
I found out from someone on the message boards that it is from like '68-'72 F series motor. So now I really don't know what to do with it now. Thanks for the interest, Roger
That's funny when I got my S/R kit from them about a year ago no-one at MAF knew what those pieces were, where they install, or how they were included in my kit.
I have some pics of it on a classified ad, at this link. https://forum.ih8mud.com/sale-parts/344002-completely-rebuilt-2f-head.html
I'm trying to sell it and can't tell anyone the year. Thanks for your help.
