Someone asked me about that hole in the frame below the rust spot in the wheel well. That is not a rust hole, it is a square opening that Mr. Toyota put in the frame during the manufacturing process. Not certain what the actual purpose it....
Front interior photos. Here are some of the front seat and dash. The seat covers are Wet Okole and the driver's seat worn original upholstery beneath the Wet Okoles. The driver's seat bottom has been replaced by an Specter Off Road hard foam seat, which is very durable. The Dash Pad is...
Full Disclosure Time. I responded to SoCal C4S earlier in this thread about rust. I described a small bubble of rust in the passenger's side rear wheel well; that statement was from my observation about 2 years ago. This area has grown to about 6 inches in length. It is a seamed area between...
Someone asked for engine compartment photos so here they are. This 2F is still fresh. The photo of the dipstick shows a full amount of oil with good color after 1696 miles. I changed my oil last at 216476 and now it is 218172. I service the rig every 3000 miles and use Valvoline VR1 oil...
Someone asked if the Cruiser had a rear seat. Yes! I run with it folded down and the entire area is covered with a thick rubber truck bed mat that is cut to fit. I made it a 2-piece cover so that I could raise the rear seat if needed (rarely). I usually carry my Chesapeakes on a daily basis...
The only rust that I have found is a bubble in a rear wheel well. I found it when I was prepping the wheel wells to apply Herculiner, which was something I could do myself. I cleaned it up as much as I could and rolled the Herculiner on. I like the Herculiner in the wheel wells because it...
Under the dash there is a "collector" junction fitting where a whole lot of small ground wires are combined into one larger wire that goes to the body and completes the ground. When that plastic junction fitting gets fried, all sorts of weird dashboard light symptoms occur, not always the same...
Get the H55. The cloud is all the swap out stuff with the clutch but the silver lining is that you already have the 4.11 diffs. Thus, you will be looking for taller tires to make everything more compatible!
Tire Size?
You did not say what tire size you have or aspire to have in the future. This will also be part of the entire cost package. In the H55 the first gear is really low and the 5th gear is about a 15% overdrive. If you are running stock tires (Who does THAT?) you will find that you...
My comment may have ABSOLUTELY no application to your situation. The stock FJ60 transfer case shifter has 2 rubber boots. The inner boot can get very stiff with time and will actually resist the shifter from being placed in 4WD Low Range. It will push the shifter back to neutral. A pocket...
