    Fj40 Receiver hitch

    I want it, can you confirm the distance between the center of the receiver pin and the back of the supporting plate? I have a locking pin/cylinder that I want to be able to use with this receiver. Need to be able to fit the cylinder on the pin behind the plate... Thanks!

    3 speed transmission prognosis?

    SBC/3spd Clutch/TO bearing combo- Yeah oil looked pretty good from both the transmissions and TC's. All had magnetic drain plugs, and there was a little metallic goo on the plug, but certainly no chunks, etc. My clutch on the other hand.... Onward- Just ordered seals and gaskets for the...

    3 speed transmission prognosis?

    I appreciate the feedback guys, I'll carry on and run the #1 transmission then, until I can justify the investment in a better solution. Thank again

    Looking for some feedback on my 3 speed transmission. Running a mild 350 with plate adapter to floor shifted 3-speed trans and direct shift TC. I've had this cruiser for 6 years almost to the day, I use it for around town, top off in the summer, occasional camping trip, and lately with two...

    Upgrading 1969 clutch master for more throw

    Wondering how this worked out, I just picked up a new 12" clutch, pressure plate for cheap, and am now rethinking the purchase as I'm finding that 11" will probably be a better solution.:bang: I do however have the early 1" bore brake master cylinder laying around, so interested to hear how...

    Speedo Gear Rebuild? or Parts?

    My speedo drive shaft has this exact problem, same symptoms with the final loud grinding noise. I pulled the shaft from the back of the speedo immediately to end the racket and later inspected the internals, found the worn input gear just as you've pictured here. This was 4 years ago, been...

    Draglink End Thread Spec - M17 x 1.5?

    Looking for a little help verifying the thread spec for the draglink end. Running mini-truck power steering, so this is the RH threaded end attaching to the pitman arm. I've removed and measured, and believe it to be M17 x 1.5, however it would be great to get a thumbs up from the community...

    67 FJ40 - Jumper seats?

    Hey Dusty, I came up with a longer version of MT's OEM roll bar design, which fit very nicely "around" the longer rear jumpseats. I had to modify the landing plate for the roll bar vertical bars to reach, but it stayed on the fender top and works great...

    SBC swap with manual steering

    Here are two pics of my '65 with SBC and 2" ram horns with original manual box. Early style mount and no rag joint on the shaft, but you get the idea. I did have to shift stuff around a bit, but the engine is straight and close to center which was the only way to get the transfer case to fit...

    Early Front Turn Signals into TS + Running?

    I used a rectifier Diode from radio shack ~$2 for 2, p/n 276-1144. voltage drop is right about 1V so 12V -> 11V w/ engine off. I'm no expert on these things so time will tell if i've sized the diode correctly, but basically i went with one that had the highest forward current (If or Io)...

    Early Front Turn Signals into TS + Running?

    Thanks mixerman, i'll look for just the pigtail, as my biggest concern after doing some poking last night was actually changing the socket. Just not sure how to get in there and remove the old one, minus pliers and tugging.... maybe some snips? just concerned what it's going to end up looking...

    Early Front Turn Signals into TS + Running?

    yeah I hear ya, just wondering if there isn't a way to rewire the circuit. I tried hooking up the running light power to the positive lead for the TS, then hooking up the flasher power to the Neg lead of the TS, but didn't work... did this for on a J**P before for side marker/TS, figured i'd...

    Early Front Turn Signals into TS + Running?

    I have the early front turn signals and want to illuminate them as running lights while retaining the TS functionality.... The socket isn't set up to run two power wires + ground, so i'm wondering if there's some solution out there? Did some searching and came up empty, anyone out there doing...

    72 FJ40 Jump Seat Question

    I just finished installing a roll bar to work w/ my long rear seats ('72 style). I had the roll bar made longer to accomodate the longer seats, so far it all fits just fine;). I didn't like the look of the inset seats, didn't leave much leg room IMOP. Also when i cut the armrest off the seat...

    Rollbar Options for a 72 FJ40 with "long" rear stock bench seats

    Hello, trying to resurect this thread, not hijack... I have a '65 FJ40 and am set on keeping the long rear seats, but do not currently have a roll bar and feel i need to add one, at least in the rear for now. I plan mostly on highway use, around town, but will be taking it camping, excursions...

    Mini booster & MC for drums

    Hey another thought/question, from what i've seen online the wildwood 10# residual valves have 1/8" NPT female fittings, how common is the adapter to go from 10mm male double flare to 1/8" NPT? thanks
