    Anyone using Yakima roof rack?

    cahil's got the right idea. Home Depot will even cut the pipe to the exact length you want. yes, buy the pipe caps and some good strong black plastic tape, take the time to wrap the bars. SOOO much cheaper than the Yakima pipe. I've also run Yak racks on four different rigs for over ten...

    Electric Fan Puller or Pusher.

    Pusher fan Hey guys...I PM'd a user who'd done this mod on his rig. He mounted a 10" PUSHER fan in front on the AC condensor and powered it through a relay to the AC switch. His note stated that it REALLY did the trick at low speeds or idle. These beasts get hot. I have yet to do this mod...

    Shackles

    Do a search on the 60/62 Forum for Dakar springs. Decent stuff for a decent price. lifts are useful, but check out some armor next. cheers and good luck... jrr http://www.man-a-fre.com/parts_accessories/omesuspensions60series.htm http://www.urbanlandcruisers.com/products/dakar.html

    4+Plus Shackle brackets

    Thanks Tinker...actually my thought was to cut a spot to expose the cross member and mount them THROUGH the bumper...funny, the add says they mount directly to the rear cross member of "any landcruiser" who knows??....thanks again. :beer: jrr

    Engine running hot, even after new thermostat

    My suspicions are that the radiator is clogged...since it's been sitting, that's likely...and or the fan clutch is toast and you are not getting enough air over the system. Two possible scenarios. I've been through three fan clutches in two years! With mine, I did a complete cooling...

    Help will not restart when hot or till I change to a spare EFI relay

    Steve, Could use a bit more info but here are some wild hairs... is your carb cooling fan working? Does it crank and just not turn over or is it a 'turn the key and get nothing' situation? I'm no mechanical expert...I don't even play one on television :o but I've had my share of...

    4+Plus Shackle brackets

    call me clueless...I have a pair of shackle brackets from 4+Plus they were given to me by a very thoughtful friend. Any ideas where I might mount them? Before anyone suggests my forehead ;p I've taken a look at the rear crossmember of my 62 and it seems that the bumper would be in the...

    Alternater

    That's a loaded question full of many possible answers. Long and the short of it is that if you are "revving" the engine you will get a voltage spike which is most easlity seen in the lights. As for the alternator, I'd check for voltage changes across the battery (easiest place afterall)...

    New FJ 60 - Must Haves?

    I'll second, third, or whatever we're at, the repair manual...can't live without 'em...saved my tuchus. If you're going to go with the fancy stereo bit...throw in the extra cash for the alarm. I learned about that all too well two weeks ago. All the body armor and lifts in the world won't...

    62 Series door locks

    alrighty...opened her up, sprayed all the pieces parts and she seems to work now....however...what is the #$%#*%^* trick to putting the damn panels back on??! the "fix" took about 15 minutes...then I spent two hours trying to put the friggin' panel back on. it is simply not going into the...

    62 Series door locks

    Thanks guys...this is a very straightforward job so it appears. I'll give both of your suggestions a go! Maaaan are new parts ever spendy! Hatfield...not to worry...been here almost a year and I'm still a "rookie" ;p Best group on the net though so stick around! Thanks again, jrr

    62 Series door locks

    alrighty...I have a silly but mildly irritating issue: left rear door lock...if I use the main button up front or the (new and embarrassing) remote, I get the the standard *THUNK* from the door locks...but the lock button does not pop up (and so does not unlock to door...of course)...

    Windshield Washer Pump not working

    My two cents: It's an easy fix...and you can believe me because I have (virtually) no repair and replace skillz. My only word of caution is when you pull the resevoir out, watch out for the little outlet filter doohicky (sorry for the technical term). It's a pain but I wouldn't want to...

    Alarms and Banging around offroad

    Wow ok...been awhile since I've posted anything in the tech sections. You guys have covered everything already! So here I go... Did some searching on alarms on your beasties and havn't turned up much. Here's my concern: I am having one installed...never had a rig with an alarm...

    Bought A Winch With No Idea

    and Throttleman is right about snapping winch cable being a killer. I'd spend the (serious) bling on one of the synthetic replacements like amsteel or similar "wire rope"....I'm off to check out dual battery info :cool: ....good luck!

    AC not blowing cold.

    Not sure if it applies but I followed this thread: https://forum.ih8mud.com/showthread.php?t=18881&highlight=A%2FC fairly close...very good stuff there. I had a nice leak in the system and two shops said bad condenser (YIKES) because it wouldn't hold a charge (still had to pay for the...

    smog pump

    not sure on the airflow issue...seems like you should have something. as for hose: They're always a little on the pricier side...but their diagrams are good: http://www.sor.com/sor/cat048c.tam?xax=25776

    If you could only carry one knife what would it be?

    I too prefer the multi tool these days...nice to have the 'extra wrench' when you're in a tight spot. I highly recommend the Leatherman Wave because it also has two external 'thumb deploy' capable blades. In other words, no unfolding the tool to get to a blade. For a strictly tactical...
