I have these nearly new Eagle alloy wheels on my Cruiser. They are 15x11 wheels with Cooper discoverer 33x12.5x15 tires on them. I would be interested in a swap for a set of nice wheels that are not as wide. Any thing nice will do. I have armstrong steering on my FJ40 and my arms are not that...
Re:misc. 1973 FJ40 parts wanted
Thanks for the response on the cables. I need to pull mine out and find out how long of one I need I guess. The catalogues show different part numbers, and I don't know why, I will get back to you soon. 3_puppies I have sent you one emai, and I am sending...
Just to give everyone an update, I purchased a rebuilt carb from one of the forum members. I managed to put it on the other night. I have no problems what so ever with the way it runs now. It has a lot more power than before. The idle mixture worked fine. I think I just had a carb that was junk...

Now for my next problem. I am trying to straighten out the front end. It has some home made shackles. They are alright, but I am trying to figure out how much lift over the stock shackles I have. Can anyone tell me how far apart the pins on the stock shackles are on a 72 fj 40?? If I had another...
I recently purchased my 72fj40 and so far all I have done is straighten out other peoples messes on this thing. Anyway I have never had it running correctly. When I purchased it I knew the engine was sick, so I rebuilt it. Now that the rebuild is done I am still having some carburetor problems...
Putting each cylinder on the compression stroke at TDC will work on any engine. Think about it, if the cylinder is on the compression stroke the valves have to be closed. You want the valves closed when you adjust the them. I have not followed the engine manuals way but I think they are trying...
