SOLD June 12.
The short version: Body has some rust (but not a lot — has lived in AZ/CA/CO its whole life), frame good, ARBs front/rear, 33x10.5 KM/2s siped with 13/32 remaining, front ARB bumper with 8k winch, rear Fourrunner bumper kit with two swingarms (not assembled).
Asking $4500, open...
Turns out this one's fairly hard to find, and the ones that are floating around are kind of hard to read, so I made a new one. It's a pretty direct copy from the Toyota wiring diagram for the FJ62, but a lot cleaner.
Also note that the mirror-side harnesses change colors at some point (mine...
Update: SOLD!
With a baby on the way, the BJ42 no longer fits our needs. Thought I had this sold locally, but the buyer has disappeared.
This is a Canadian-spec BJ42: left-hand drive, 24-volt, with a great rear heater.
Lots of pictures here.
Power steering! (Saginaw box, Toyota pump)...
This is getting seriously frustrating...
I've got a 1982 BJ42 with Toyota power steering added by the PO (probably BJ60 parts). The alternator bracket on the block is the standard 2-bolt unit, and it keeps backing out and breaking bolts!
The last time it broke a bolt, a heavy-truck...
SOLD to MtnTrucker. Sorry for not updating this earlier!
I have a 1984 FJ60 with a Mercedes turbo diesel and automatic transmission installed... Comes with a Toyota t-case (not installed) and a pile of spare parts. Engine has a rebuilt head with zero miles. 5-cylinder 1985 model out of a...
It's a long shot, but hey...
I'm taking a (hazardous-materials technician) class the first two weeks of November in Fraser (next door to Winter Park), and money is SUPER tight. Does anyone have any Cruiserhead friends who'd like a couch surfer for part or all of that time?
Two unpaid weeks...
Toyota cat, Dynomax muffler, somewhat larger-than-stock piping, and straight pipe on flanges to swap the cat in and out as required. :)
Thread with pics is here.
Local pickup in Boulder, CO only!
edit: SOLD!
I'm closing down my workshop by Dec 31, so I've got a few things to get rid of... Of interest here may be the exhaust off my '84 FJ60. Dynomax muffler, Toyota cat (mounted on flanges with matching straight pipe), pretty basic system. Larger-than-stock pipe, but not huge.
No, I...
The club meets at 7pm on the last Wednesday of every month. Visitors and new members are welcome!
Meeting location varies, and will be posted in a new thread prior to the meeting.
I have a form from TLCA that needs filled out... Can whoever the secretary is (is that you, Julie, or am I misremembering?) email me (awball@polarweasel.org), so I can get you the form?

Hey look, your TLCA rep is paying attention to the TLCA mailing list! ;)
Any interest in some big TLCA stickers? Like, 6" and 10" diameter big? :) Prices will be in the neighborhood of $7 and $10 respectively, and there's special club pricing to be had.
PM or email me if you're interested...
All of a sudden, I need a fiberglass top cap for my hardtop. Mine has broken bolts in every single hole, and I'm not sure it's worth trying to drill them all out.
Anybody got a spare cap, or know somebody who wants to get rid of one? This is a 1980-ish top on an '82 40 series: ambulance...
TLCA black and white stickers?
There's been some talk in the last day and a half on the TLCA BoD mailing list about black and white TLCA stickers. Just like the color ones you get with your membership, but B&W for a "stealth" look or something. I think they look kinda snazzy.
They're trying...
I forget who it was, but at the last meeting, someone was talking about Durabak, and I mentioned that Herculiner is the same stuff.
Anyway, Herculiner's on sale at Checker right now for $70 after a $20 mail-in rebate in case anyone needs some bedliner...
Alex
OME lists the same shackle part number for FJ60s and late FJ40s. Which means my FJ60's shackles are about to end up on my BJ42 this weekend.
Folks who were at the meeting tonight know what the hell I'm talking about. :)
Horsetooth 4-Wheelers club discounts
10% off at Outback USA. Code is "horsetooth" in the online checkout.
Boulder Toyota/Scion: ask for Jerry, the parts manager, and get a pretty hefty TLCA discount. Still a bit higher than Cruiserdan's prices, but you don't have to wait for mail order!
You...
Hey, guess what... The club now gets a 10% discount at Outback USA! I ordered some books there this week, and thought I'd ask them about giving a club discount after I'd bought my books...
I got that just for asking nicely. I'm gonna try that with some other places, too! It's a great bookstore...
I know this has been done to death in the 40 and 60 forums, so I'll make this brief...
4x4mods.com makes rocker switches similar to Contura rockers (think ARB locker switches), only they're $10 each. Quite a few labels to choose from, too.
And now, they're lit with LEDs, and they work with...
