On Tuesday of last week I had intentions of buying anything. On Wednesday I though the 40's progress is going well but a 62 would be nice to cruise around in. Couldn't take it, on Friday I bought this one. I have had the 40 for years and know it fairly well. This is all new to me, literally...

Guys as you know I am piecing my 76 back together week by week. Yesterday in dry fitting the carb we found we are missing two linkage pieces. # 51 & 53 in picture. Anyone have an idea where I can find these? When I purchased the 77 engine everything was attached i guess except those pieces.
Re-building my 40 and just purchased my stock steelies. Want to put BFE 33x10.5 on. I plan to do the 2.5 OME lift. I dont' have the money to buy the lift right now. My question is will the 33x10.5 fit under the stock rig until I can finance the lift?
Let me start by telling my story. I purchased this 76 FJ40 in the summer of 1992 while in college, sold it in 1998 when we had our first child. For Christmas 2009 my Dad bought the FJ back minus the engine. It had never been titled or driven, just parked waiting to be restored by the new...
I have a 76 FJ with original transmission and transfer case. Bought a 77 2F with transmission and transfer case. What is the difference and which should I use?
Where can I find a drivers front seat bracket (closet to the door) for a 1976 FJ Also need the passenger front seat bracket (closet to the door) Both units bolt to the floor and have rusted into.
Where should I look for a radiator?
Thanks
I have gotten into my replacement '77 2F engine into my 76. Noticed there was a gap in the intake manifold gasket. So I took off the entire manifold and now have to decide can I get the intake separated from the exhaust manifold to replace the gasket(it is where the heater return, I think) or do...

I am in need of clutch parts for 76 fj40. where do you guys suggest I look on line or local parts store? I also need a radiator sites on line look decent any suggestions would be great. Thanks
I have a 76 FJ40 with the stock transmission in it. Just purchased a 77 2F with Transmission and Tcase. There looks like there is a difference in the two Tranny's? In a book there looked like there was a H41 and H42? How do I tell the difference and does it matter? I assume the 77 will bolt...
On my 1976 FJ40 I have what I think is the original white spoke wheels but my spare is the old Hub Cap style. Was this right or shouldn't they have all matched? Either all white or all hubs caps? Just wondering.
I am about to own a 1976 FJ40. Owned it once and now have a chance to buy it back, this time with no engine. Should I look for a 2F or go with a V8 or something. All I know so far is the engine was sold rest is still there. Thanks
