I'm missing the Slip Yoke Boot on the Lower Steering Shaft and was trying to find where can I get the replacement. I called the Dealership, but was told it was discontinued, but they do sell full Lower Shaft assembly for $700 which is kind of strange for me to have the full assembly, but not the...
I was looking at the Steering Shaft and as far as I can see there 3 Yoke/U-Joints in there:
- Upper for Steering Column Tilt
- Middle (the one connecting Lowe and Intermediate Shafts, at Firewall). This one is actually replaceable
- Lower (between the Lower Shaft and Power Steering Box)
As I...

Does anyone have the Pressure and Return Lines with fittings for the Power Steering Box?
Picture bellow is of 60-series Power Steering Box I have for the reference:
I'm looking for 60-Series Lower Steering Shaft with Yoke and U-Joint (the one which connects to the Power Steering Box). I believe the Power Steering Box is 36 spline for the Shaft Yoke.
If you have one, please let me know, or may be you know someone who has it.
I specifically interested in the...
I'm looking for a 60-series Steering Drag Link. I believe some call it Relay Rod.
If someone has one or know of one available, pleas let me know.
I'm rebuilding my steering and need a Drag Link to finish it.
Thank you in advance.
I currently have Saginaw Power Steering on my 40 and not really like the way it works, so the plan is to change it to 60-series Power Steering.
I believe that splines on the GM and Toyota PS Boxes are different and U-Joints would not work, so its not going to be Plug-n-Play.
Can I re-use any...
What would be recommendations for Heavy Duty Steering Arms for 60-Series?
I see a lot of aftermarket Hi-Steer kits, but they do not work well for my application.
Did anyone had any experience or knows about All-Pro Steering Arms?
I have been previously using Trail-Gear ones. Now on the market for the new set. Pricewise they are very similar, All-Pro $249 and Trail-Gear $239. Marlin-Crawler seems to be similar to Trail-Gear Arms, just Machined vs TG and...
I have swapped the gauges to AutoMeter ones. One of them is the Engine Coolant Temperature Gauge. First i have connected OEM Coolant Temperature Sensor which is mounted on the engine, but I do get higher temperature readings. I have contacted AutoMeter and they have mentioned that this is due to...
Does anyone knows what is the part number for OEM fully metallic key for 100-series?
What styles of the keys are available?
Found some example pictures on the web, but don't know what style and what p/n will work.
Does anyone knows what is the Blank Key part number for Toyota OEM ignition key on 40-series?
My local dealership doesn't have any in stock and they need to special order it, meaning I can't return them if it's not the style I'm looking for.
I'm interested in the metal key with small plastic...
I know that main benefit of the Aqualu Aluminum Tab is no rust, but did anyone actually look at the weight benefit of the original parts vs. aluminum?
I'm referring to:
- Tab - 195 lbs (Aqualu) - xxx (stock)
- Cowl - xxx (Aqualu) - xxx (stock)
- Windshield Frame - 25 lbs (Aqualu) - xxx (stock)

What is minimum Tire Pressure can be run on FJ40 with 35s MT tires on 17" rims (315/70-R17)?
What would be recommended tire pressure?
I have been searching the web and forums, but what I get allot is recommendations for Jeeps on 15" rims. Many runs 10-12 psi on 31s and 33s with 15" rims on...
Friend of mine asked me a question last weekend and it puzzled me a bit...
He noted that 40-series has enormous steering wheel. I know it was designed around non-power steering, so the driver would have leverage for the vehicle steering. Meanwhile after doing power steering conversion, there is...
I'm about to replace my old steering arms with a new ones. One of the things which worries me is, that top trunion bearings have been pre-set with my current arms. Do I need to set the trunion bearings with new arms (same Tral-Gear arms)? I'm only taking the wheel off, wheel hubs would be...
I was wondering what is the best Interior/Dome Light to be used for a 40-series?
I'm referring to the Soft Top version of the vehicle, as in Hard Top Toyota had put Dome Lights on the B-Pillars.
What about Soft Tops? I have seen some images of people putting lights similar to the Hard Top, but...
I'm in the process of building a roll cage for my '74 FJ40. My 40-series was originally a Soft Top. Eventually I'm planning to get a Hard Top and use both. When I purchased the vehicle it came with Bestop Soft Top installed by previous owner. My guess this top is around 10+ years old. I'm...
I'm replacing the steering arm on the 60-series Land Cruiser front axle.
The steering arms are holding upper knuckle bearing and it's preload.
Do I need to change shims or can I just reuse the original shims from the old steering arm?
I have modified drilled steering arms and pitman arm for use of the Heim-Joints. Basically tapered hole was made to cylindrical of the same diameter as largest opening on the tapered end.
If i want to run regular steering Tie-Rods, how can I do it? Are there any reverse convertion kits to go...
