    Need info from wheel heads ?

    Wrong forum but best for info. Looking to get wheels for my 2010 toy and not sure about a -6 offset. Does that mean it sticks out 6mm or sets back 6mm or am I worrying about a non issue. Trying to make this toy almost as good as my stock set up 60 I'm having to get rid of because of bad knee and...

    New to Me 2010 Tacoma

    So headed out today to look and hopefully buy a 2010 4x4 4 door long bed to replace my 84 fj60. Was wondering about this ASB relay thing. We don't have snow here often but when we do you need to be able to get out of the way of the fools. This one has NEW BFG T/A KO2 so I figure they should...

    Oil Leak from Air Cleaner

    U.S. gas and Trollhole carb

    Just an FYI, I've been running a Trollhole carb for 2 yrs now and it has ran great, until a few days ago. It kept running out of gas. After checking the pump and changing filters and cleaning the needle valve a few times I decided to change out the valve and seat from my old carb. That's when I...

    Fan Clutch FYI

    If anyone is looking for a fan clutch try RockAuto. I have a 84 and after a few knock offs I got because of low funds I found on Rockauto a Aisin brand for around 69$. I don't know if it is the same one Toyota buys but unlike all the off brand ones it looks exactly like my OEM one. Aisin Seiki...

    FJ62 Gears

    OK search is down so I will have to ask. Will the diff. gears from a 62 work in a 60? I know most people go the other way but I spend like 99% of my time on payment and when I do get off-road it is on dirt roads or forest logging roads. I figure I might be able to get a little better mileage and...

I'm running a 180 thermostat. It's a rebuilt engine with only about 10k on it.I have checked the plugs 3 times...

    A/C circuit breaker pops only on high

    SO last year when I did my rebuild I did the A/c also, new seals R12. and a after market blower fan. Now when I use the system on high the breaker pops after 10 to 30 min. As long as I back off just one setting it runs fine. Could the compressor draw more amps on high or should I start checking...
