Get ready, my 40 is headed that way within the next couple of days. Not much left of the body but the entire drivetrain is in it and intact! I just put the motor in it this past November with the help of Matt Walls, whom some, if not most, of you know. Compression is high on all cylinders...
So it pains me to have to do this but because of some ignorant driver, I'm selling all of my 40 parts that I had set aside. Here's the list
OEM 2f carburetor - $150
OEM air filter assembly - $100
Confer rear bench seat - $400
'76 40 all bottom dash pads in VERY good shape - SOLD to TCSTARK
'76...
I have a set of 285\75R16 BFG T/A KOs on 16x7 8-spoke wheels that have been pulled off of my 40. Reason? Some kid pulled out in front of me, 40 is totaled, so I'm saving/selling what I can. The tires are about 80% or more and in EXCELLENT shape. They still have the tits on them. Also were...
This will probably get moved but oh well. This is what happens when a Chevy Cavalier decides that he needs my lane. I'm not a happy Scout right now.

Simple question... which way is your weber 38 float bowl facing? I'm having an issue with mine and noticed that, through looking at some others, mine is opposite (float bowl facing the firewall). Just curious if it would affect vacuum.
Thank ya'...
Ok, so like the title says, I'm having an overheating dilemma. I used the search function, tried the different suggestions, and, still, its overheating. Here's what I've got: 2F, Weber 38 carb, electronic ignition, electric fan (thermostat set to 190, shuts off at 180), stock radiator, new 195...
How many turns of the steering wheel are you getting with your fj40? I have a '78 w/ 4" lift and a Saginaw conversion w/ the drop pitman. I'm on getting 3.75 turns out of it resulting in an almost guaranteed 3-point turn just to park in a parking spot. I doubt this is the norm and am wondering...
Background: A couple of months ago, I was taking a relatively long trek when I discovered that my fuel gauge was a little less than a 1/4 tank off from being accurate. Needless to say, I ended up being stranded on the side of the road until my wife got there with a couple of gallons of gas. The...
Here's my dilemma: '77 2F WILL NOT START!!! It turns over, it gets fuel, but I'm not getting spark to the plugs. I'm not really sure if it is getting enough juice to the distributor. I'm not seeing any spark at the plugs. After the coil, its reading equal to what the battery is putting off...
So, I was reading somewhere here about altering con-ferr shackles by removing the center ?lug? to make a 40 ride better. It only briefly mentioned it and then the thread ended with no other evidence or outcome. I tried researching it more and couldn't find anything else on it. Does anyone have...
So, I'm looking for a consensus of those who have swapped over from the original external voltage regulator to an internal style, more accurately, the 10SI or 12SI style. I've been having issues with my external style and it continually not charging my battery due to whatever reason. I've done...
Just a quick question.. is it possible for a water pump to squeal if there is no antifreeze in the system? I have straight water in it for now since I have been pulling the radiator off countless times. The water pump started squealing on me, though, when I would give it throttle.
Ok, need some help, as usual. I rewired my 40 a few months ago and everything seemed to be fine. Other issues (crank pulley) arose and I haven't been able to run the truck until today. Issue is that when I was getting the juices flowing before driving, I noticed some smoke coming from under the...
Does anyone know what the inside diameter of a crankpulley is for a '77 2F is? Getting my old one drilled out by a tool and die shop and NEED TO KNOW NOW!!!
Thanks in advance :D
