    Best Gas Tank Option for ‘78 FJ40

    I already replaced my OEM tank. I really didn’t want to drop a grand on an extended fuel tank. I had thought a 7-8 gal tank behind the seats and roll cage cradle that could tap into the OEM would be a neat option for long trips, but it would have to be custom and probably expensive. I’ll...

    For Sale  Tempe AZ: 1978 FJ40 Gas Tank (Needs Repair)

    1978 FJ40 Gas Tank in very good condition. Very little visible rust (some rust on exterior surface but nothing that appears excessive or compromising of tank integrity). Interior surface that can be seen looks clean with no signs of rust or contamination of any kind. There was a small leak of...

    Best Gas Tank Option for ‘78 FJ40

    Does the Downey tank mount under the floor? Does it create any clearance issues?

    Best Gas Tank Option for ‘78 FJ40

    i found a leak in my tank so I think it’s probably time to replace it. I’m looking into options. CCOT seems to have a decent reproduction tank at a decent price ($571), but not currently available. BTB has one ($652! on back order. SOR is over $700. I’m told Toyota still makes tanks? Is...

    Gas Smell

    I may have found the source of the smell (hopefully). After taking into account all the great feedback and comments, I checked the Evap Separator and tubing and discovered that one of the nipples had been broken off a LONG time ago and the whole thing was Jerry rigged by the PO with a piece of...

    Gas Smell

    I’ve been looking for material. Toyota sells it for $46+ but I can’t understand the length and if it’s enough to do all three or four connections at that price. Guess I can hit the auto stores buts its never a sure thing anymore.

    Gas Smell

    I drained and replaced the plug awhile back (before this all started). I put a new gas gasket on. I’ll check that closely. What exactly is the “evap”? There is a plastic manifold behind the filler tube. Is that you mean by the evap? I don’t really understand how all that works. Lots of...

    Gas Smell

    I’m smelling gas from my ‘78 FJ40. I can’t see any gas leaks, but there could be a micro leak somewhere. Obviously you can’t see for certain unless you pull the tank which in my case is a huge problem since I have a roll cage that replaces my stock seat frame mount. In order to remove the...

    31" or 33" Tires on 1977 FJ40

    So, you had no problem running 33x12.50x15 with the OME Spring lift, correct? Any issues or conflicts with the steering arm or pitman arm? Do you think it’s possible to run a 34X9.5X15 with the same setup?

    34" Tires on a Spring Lift FJ40

    What mods did you have to make to the steering linkage and pitman arm? Did you put in spacers?

    34" Tires on a Spring Lift FJ40

    I saw that interco had a 34x9.5R15 IROK. Looked interesting,,, nearly $500 though.

    34" Tires on a Spring Lift FJ40

    Is it possible to fit 34" tires on a FJ40 with just OME Spring lift and cut away rear fenders openings? I used to run 33's on 15" rims without much difficulty, other than the fact that the stock 2F had a hard time pushing the vehicle uphill on the roadway. I'm wondering, strictly for a trail...

    SOLD '78-84 FJ40 Heater Air Duct Assembly PN 87211-60160

    I got the photo from a Toyota ad. Not the best depiction. My ‘78 FJ40 never had AC, but I believe you are right that it was configured for AC equipped 40’s.

    How Wide of Tire on stock FJ40?

    Does the Forum have recommendations for a good off-road MT rock-crawling tire for a rig that is mostly trailered; not a daily driver and not driven extensively on the highway?
