    Rubber pads for Brake and Clutch pedal

    HI Does anyone know of a source for replacement brake and clutch pedal pads? It's a 1971 FJ40. A part number for an after market pad would really help. I did a forum search and found nothing. Thanks John

    Threads on the Intake Manifold on a 71

    Hi I am replacing a cracked intake manifold. It has a couple of fittings threaded into it. The replacement manifold had the fittings removed and I was just going to replace them. The fittings in the old one are really stuck. Fittings with NPT threads don't quite fit and I suspect they are...

    Wanted  FJ40 Exhaust Manifold for a 1971

    Hey Does anyone have a spare cast exhaust manifold they are willing to sell? Not interested in headers. Don't need the intake, just the exhaust. Just need something that is reasonably flat, not cracked and will fit a '71. I can handle the clean up and sand blasting. PM me if you have one...

    Wanted  FJ40 intake Manifold for a 1971

    Hi Does anyone have a un-cracked intake manifold that will fit a 1971 FJ40? Wide or narrow runners are ok. Needs to be a 2barrel setup. The intake/exhaust would be ok for a reasonable price if you don't want to part the two. Thanks John

    Cracked intake manifold

    Hey My 71 FJ started running rough. I found that the manifold flange was cracked near one of the studs and into the plenum. I used some high temp silicone as a temporary fix. It is completely cracked through and leaking. A couple of questions: Does anyone have experience using the aluminum...

    Mounting a Delco 12si into a 71 FJ40

    Hi Need some ideas. I am trying to mount a 94 amp Delco 12si in a 71 FJ40. I am running a winch a lot and the 40amp original has a hard time keeping up. I am having a problem with the lower mount. The alt is mounted down low on the drivers side. I have included a pic with the alternator...

    Alternator Mount 12SI in a '71 FJ40 Alternator Mount

    Hey Does anyone know of an easy way to mount a 12SI alternator into a '71? This in the one mounted down by the pan on the drivers side. I have the vehicle and I have the alternator, just have to figure out how. The current alt is a two lug Hitachi inbred clone. The 12SI has a single lower...

    High output alturnator

    Hi I have been using the winch on my 71 FJ40 to help with some chainsaw gardening. Basically moving around 20-30" 10-15' logs. It has an stock alternator which does not keep up with the demand. Since it is not now and never will be driven on the street I have a lot of lattitude. It has a...

    71 fuel tank

    Hi I need to replace a fuel tank on a Mar 71 FJ40. I noticed that are a number of poly tanks available for 73-79 FJ's. Judging from the blocked vents on the current rusted tank it was actually from a later model truck anyway. A company called JustGasTanks sells one for $190 and says that...

    Alarm for 2013 FJ

    Hey I have just purchased a brand new FJ. Couldn't find a used one for a reasonable price. I went through the Costco new vehicle purchase program and got a screaming deal. Anyway, it has the "off road" package and as such the dealer can't install the standard Toyota alarm system. I double...

    Fender Bulge

    Probably should close the thread. I went ahead and bought a new 2013. I could not find a used one for a reasonable price. Dealer had what I wanted in stock. I went through Costco auto purchase and got one heck of a good deal. Only a couple thou more than a low milage used one. Actually...

    Manual Trans

    I am trying to find a late model used FJ with a manual trans. They seem to be almost non-existant. Does anyone know what percentage came with a manual? I am about ready to give up looking. Tacoman

    How to identify Wheel Brake Cylinders

    I need to replace a couple of wheel cylinders on a 71 FJ40. I am pretty sure the previous owner changed the axle out at some time. Is there a way of ID'ing the cylinders that are on the car right now. Its nominally a 71 (the odd year) for brake cylinders. But it's got flared fitting at each...

    Carb Rebuild on a 71 FJ40

    Just pulled apart stock 71 FJ carb. It was missing the discharge weight and ball under the stopper rivet. See parts 22 and 24 in the figure. The Keystone rebuild kit has the ball but not the weight or stopper rivet. The stopper rivet is also kind of scarred and I would like to replace that also...

    Brake hoses

    I am putting in higher lift springs on my 71 LC FJ40. I want to put some longer flex brake lines on it. Does anyone know of a source and a stock number for some longer lines. The lift is about 2" front and rear. Thanks

    Dead spot at about 2500-3000rpm

    Just got the Cruiser running for summer. Its a 72 with stock engine and carb. At 2500 rpm the engine runs rough under no load when it is fully warmed up. It almost dies. If I have the choke on it runs just fine. It also idles fine at cold or warm. I have had the carb off several times but not...
