I have recently cut out and replaced the read quarter panels and the rocker panels. I need to check dimensions at the B-pillars: distance in inches between the inside of the drivers and passanger side B-pillars and between each B-pillar and the A-pillar. I found diagrams on Mud but none of...
I have a 72 FJ40 that is generally sound. Its a hunting vehicle I keep in a barn at the ranch. Since the rig is remote, I don't have many opportunities to diagnose the problem so I am reaching out the the forum.
The problem is that both turn signal indicators illuminates when I press the...

I'm looking for a quality rebuilt weber carb to replace the one on my 72 FJ40. I'm in Houston and need this in short order. Also, if anyone knows of a good TLC mechanic in H-town, let me know.
I have a Weber carb on a recently rebuit F egine with the emissions junk removed. Occationally, after the engine is at temp for a while and I turn off the ignition, the engine will continue to run and eventually cough to a stop. This must point to a need for a carb adjustment. Any ideas?
