    Replacing carb, what to choose

    1968 FJ40, 1971 F motor with headers, factory vacuum advance distributor, mechanical fuel pump, cable throttle linkage, no emission control, no return fuel lines to tank, original 3 speed trans and transfer case. It still has the Rochester 2G carb I put on it back in 1977, and I'm ready for a...

    which brake controller

    Just bought a small tent trailer (Fleetwood Neon, about a thousand pounds), to tow with my FJ60. What brake controller should I get? I did a search, and the Tekonsha Prodigy and the Jordan seem to be mentioned a lot. Any comments?

    OME lift

    What is the distance between the top of the axles and the bumpstops (front and rear) with an OME suspension (springs, shackles, shocks, etc.)? I figure that's the most accurate measurement of real lift, since it eliminates tire size as a factor. I'm ready to go OME and wondering just how much...

    Fleetwood Neon pop up trailer

    Anybody have any experience with the Fleetwood Neon pop up trailer? From looking at the website, it looks about ideal for my needs (light weight, narrow, sleeps two with floor room for the dogs). It is still on the website for 2007 models, but my local dealer says it is now discontinued and is...

    Brake issue...hmmm...

    I've come up with a new brake symptom I've never experienced before. The first time I use the brakes after the truck sits for several days, the brake pedal goes to the floor on the first push, then applies the brakes about midway down the second stroke (and pedal is firm). Brakes then work...

    roof rack choices

    I need a roof rack for camping trips. Nothing extreme, mostly backcountry roads, carrying up to about 200 lbs of bulky stuff. I have a sunroof, so I need something about 5 feet long and 4 1/2 to 5 feet wide. (This rules out the ARB racks at Cruiser Outfitters, which are either too short or too...

    cyl head oil gallery

    Last night I lost all my oil pressure, and my oil (85 FJ60). Back half of the right side of the block is covered with it, from below the valve cover to the oil pan. It looks like it may have either come from the cylinder head oil gallery plug by the #5 spark plug or the back of the oil cooler...

    Wheel bearing/knuckle grease

    The manual recommends lithium base wheel bearing grease, NLGI #2 for wheel bearings, Molybdenum disulfide lithium base chassis grease, NLGI #2 for the steering knuckles and steering linkage. I was reading a tube of Valvoline Durablend Moly grease, and it says it is suitable for disk brake wheel...

    power steering pump noise

    The power steering pump in my 85 FJ60 has begun making groaning noises when it is cold. At around freezing, it makes the noise when I turn the wheel to the right. It is most noticable when the motor is cold, and quiets a bit as it warms up, but does not go away. When it is closer to zero...
