I'm looking for doors for my 60. Don't care about color (exterior or interior) but I do care about rust. I'm in FL, zip 32901. The front doors are my main interest, but I'd go for a good deal on all 4 also. Thanks,
Matt
I live in humid florida on the east coast. Lately I've noticed my '84 fj60 plipping water out when I crank it in the morning. It leaves a spattered rusty water stain on the driveway. I don't notice any steam, just rusty water blown out the back. It doesn't appear to be making any steam after...
My '84 FJ60 had a dealer installed hackjob A/C system. I have since tossed all that and converted to the OEM setup. In general, this is what I have added:
- 3 groove crank pulley
- new motor mount arm
- radiator hose changes
- rebuilt compressor
- condensor/dryer/hoses
- under dash...
I'm converting my 2 groove crank pulley on my '84 FJ60 to a 3 groove for an OEM AC setup. I recieved the "new to me" pulley from cruiserparts.net and tried the install last night. Here's the problem:
The 3 groove pulley has an ID about .064" smaller than my original 2 groove. Therefore, I...
What is the secret to these things? I just tore my new one trying to gently tap around it with a rubber hammer. The SST (aligns with the input shaft bearing) in the FSM looks sweet, but I haven't got one. I have two more seals on the way from MAF in case my skills don't improve quickly...
I've got a late '83 FJ60 that I desmogged around 6 months ago. JimC did the carb and dizzy work and I used the diagrams to hook everything up. I've since taken it on several road trips across a few states and the truck ran like new. I averaged 17.5 mpg on my last trip (hit 19 on the highway)...
I was on my way back to Melbourne, FL from the Keys this past weekend when I heard a nasty grinding noise. I pulled over on 95 about 150 miles south of home and popped the hood. Plastic fan shavings were everywhere and my AC compressor and alternator were no longer located where they used to...
Now that my cruiser runs, I've started to notice other secondary noises/issues. When I'm coming to a stop and mash the clutch in, I can hear a clicking/ticking sound as I slow down. It's definately sychronized with the wheel speed. My estimate from sticking my head out the window and watching...
The down-low:
I've got a '84 FJ60 with new plugs, wires, rotor button, dist cap, coil, starter, fuel pump, fuel flex lines, dropped and cleaned fuel tank, fuel filter, replumbed EVAP system per Toyota manual with all smog crud attached (it was all screwed up), rebuilt carb (done by me, it had...
