    Not running yet

    I swapped the Holley marine carb the PO put on for the original rebuilt carb. I started with the idle mixture screw 1.5 turns out. I'm at 6.5 turns and and that seems pretty far out. Is is this normal? I haven't touched the high idle yet and don't think I need to until I have a low idle...

    For Sale  SF Bay Area: 1971 FJ40

    I picked up two 71's and I'm letting this one go. I plan to mod the other one and this one is too complete for me to hack on. It sat for 20+ years and survived the Paradise fire. Body and chassis numbers match. I'll have to verify F155 number. Registered non-op in CA. Motor is not seized...

    It followed me home, can I keep it?

    I was looking for a 75 or earlier and had the opportunity to buy two mostly complete 71's with PTO winches. Both survived the Paradise Fire. Neither have been upgraded to power steering, and the white one still has the column shift and an original Toyota PTO. Seats are original but down...

    "Stuck" LSPV

    The LSPV on my '91 is really rusty and the pin (piston?) is stuck fully depressed. The rear axle was replaced with a 94 FF. There are no rebuild kits for these and Toyota lists different part numbers for the Drum and the Disc LSPVs. They're priced the same. Does it matter which one I use...

    RTH radflo shock install

    For OEM it's 51 ft lb but the radflo bushings are softer and completely squashed before reaching spec. Of course it's 30 min after the vendor and radflo closed for the weekend. Any thoughts?

    Broken shock bolt

    I broke the lower rear shock bolt and ran out of the house without the remnant. Anyone recall the size and pitch? I'd like to pick up an extractor and thread chaser on the way home.

    Spring Visual Comparison

    It's not often, unless you're in the business, that you have 3 loose springs for comparison. The picture doesn't do the Slee justice. The wire diameter is much larger than the OME 850.

    Lift question of the day

    My new project has an OME lift that seems higher than 75mm or 3". The previous owner is unavailable so how do I determine what lift I have? I have a Slee 4" kit for another project but if the OME is 2.5" or 3" then the Slee will be too tall for my needs.
