Hi everyone. Here is the mystery of my truck. An overhauled was performed by a local shop. Engine runs smooth and everything is great until I turn the AC on. The temperature starts to slowly climb to almost 3/4 of the temp gauge (I turn the AC before getting to the red) But as soon as I...
I have seen stretched FJ40 on FZJ80 frames. Just wondering if anyone has try it with a 1st Generation 4Runner. I know that this will require some insane amount of labor hours, but can you imagine a convertible 4RJ80? I currently own both. So thats a good start. Is this idea even possible?
Looking for parts to build or to buy a complete doubler to be installed in FJ40. Let me know if you have adapters of any of these set ups.
(Parts that I currently have laying around are 700r4, th350, Np205, Np203)
NP203/LC 4 speed transfer
NP203/NP205
Man a Free Doubler
Thank you,
Alex
Looking for a FJZ80 Rear Axle. Prefer the ones with disk brakes and parking brake. Locker is always a plus but not required. I am in El Paso, TX so NM, AR and Dallas are are places that I commute frequently. I will be shorting it out as a experiment to centered and stuff it on a FJ40 with...
I am looking for a centered LC differential. Is anyone that have a centered (converted) rear differential? My LC is 75 FJ40. Even better if someone has a FJZ80 converted to a centered rear end. hoping to keep my same gear ratio (4.11) by using my current third.
Hi
If the T-case went though a overhaul recently (less than 4k miles), what could be causing the gears to pop out? I was working fine and from one day to another it does not want to stay in any of 2Hi 4hi or 4Low. The shifting lever seems to have extra play and feels like it barely engages...
Is there a good write up on how to do a mini (hybrid) axle. I love the idea to use my fj40 3rd member on another Toyota axle housing? I searched but could not find one. Any help would be greatly appreciated. FAQ links not working.
Is this idea cost effective since I can pick up a set of 1...
First Question is why? I love how the 97 FJZ80 ride/off road capablities, but I love the fj40's looks.
2nd reason: I already owned one of each. So as far as donor vehicles.. I am set.
Just wondering if anyone has done it. I search on the FAQ with no luck. I am more interested on a FJ40...
75 FJ40.
I took my leaf spring to get them re-arched (don't know if that is proper term). Guy at the shop told me we can make them taller, turned rear differential and fit 35'.. So I agreed for 250 bucks . He trimmed some metal at the rear fender wells. Front tires rubs on full flex and...
I notice that the guy that installed my power steering conversion on my 75 FJ40 left my steering shaft too short. I currently have about 1 1/2 inch gap between my steering box and the shaft link. You can get the rubber dounut to fit but it distroys i in about 6 - i months. Wondering what would...
I am looking for the power steering pump bracket set up for this engine.
The iron heads are from a 68-69 corvette engine that have no holes to bolt anything. I was told to use either the water pumb holes or the manifold. Does anyone have a part # or a picture of the brackets you are currently...
I busted my rear axel. Many of you have gone to 1 Ton axels. If you have one laying around let me konw. I live in El Paso, TX but will be traveling to San Antonio, Houston, Austin during Nov 22-26 2010.
75 LC w/ small block chevy and Toyota minitruck Power Steering w 35x12.5 tires?
Will this work on a fj40 w v-8 convertion?
From what truck is that bracket from? ( Are this William Dorry's)
It seems like the steering box would be to close to the engine. The only reason I want to know...
Looking for advice on the best way to deal with bad synchros on a 4 speed. Best price on synchros I got was $200 - 275 dlls. Some used trans are running about the same. What is a good price to pay if I take it to a trans shop? Or whats a good price to pay for a used tranny?
Tail lights on my truck got rusted and I am having problems with light bulbs not making contact properly. If they are Used is ok, new even better. (they are the ones with red, orange and white lenses.)
Spector has them new for $50 new but trying to get them for less.:idea:
Let me start by saying that I am a happy owner of a 75 LC 4 SP with chevy 327, v8.
I attempted to rebuilt my fj40 axels by changing all seals, bearing and brakes. When I got to the brakes I noticed that they were all gone and everything needed to be replaced. I priced everything on my local...
