    SOLD  Indiana: 100 series Cruiser side trim

    Cleaning out some extra parts to help fund my FJ40 rebuild project. I purchased these from 'Mud a few years ago for my 2004 100 series that I no longer have. Full set and some clips. The painted stripe area is only fair, and there are a few scratches and dings on the plastic areas, but...

    Talk me out of buying UTV tires for my FJ40

    I've noticed a pretty decent selection of super aggressive UTV tires in 9 and 10 in width for 15" rims. I'm looking at some 35x10x15's for my FJ40. Some are 8 ply and others are 10 ply but I don't see any weight ratings. Anybody have any experience running UTV tires? I've seen some mention...

    Can I manually bleed brakes?

    I have new rear calipers and flex lines to swap out on 2004 100 series. Not to sure about ABS system differences from my 1976 FJ40. Can I have my son pump/hold the pedal while I crack open bleed nipples? Key needs to be on for ABS pump? Anything else special? Thanks a million.

    Rusty spring hangers

    I have rotten rear spring hangers on my '76. It looks like the early hangers are not available anymore. I see SOR has late hangers using the bigger spring pins, but they are pricey and I'm not sure how they would adapt to the early frame. The other option looks like full custom fab Ruff...

    86 4x4 extended cab 5 sp swap info

    My '86 4x4 auto drives and shifts fine when I drive like an old man. However, when my foot gets heavy the tranny hunts around. It will shift up early, then with lack of power, shift back down, then rev out and back to the taller gear. I'm interested in collecting parts, or a donor truck for...

    Downpipe exhaust collar and gasket problems

    I'm trying to seal up my downpipe to manifold connection on my '76. I bought the doughnut gasket but all I have of #43 exhaust collar is a broken rusted out ring. It will not seal without it, I've tried twice. I found some mention of the ring in some of JimC's posts but nothing else. If I...

    Heat riser insulator block off gaskets?

    I'm getting ready to install the SOR heat riser insulator block off plate on my '76. I bought 2 of the remflex heat riser gaskets, one for each side of the insulator plate. I'm thinking the stack up will be to thick. Is there a better way?

    1976 manifold heat control valve

    My exhaust manifold heat control valve is not operational. The bushing on the radiator side is also missing and causing exhaust leakage. I'm able to rotate the shaft with pliers and it turns pretty easily. The counter balance on the firewall side rotates from stop to stop roughly the 6...

    22RE rebuild advice central IN

    My daily driver '86 4x4 22RE is in need of attention. It has been limping along burning oil and leaking air with a cracked exhaust manifold and a stripped manifold stud. Today I noticed coolant leaking from under the exhaust manifold right around the #2 piston area, so bad head gasket I guess...

    2F won't rev past 2300 RPM

    My '76 2F and stock carb runs pretty decent. When I received the truck it was running stock dizzy but with a Crane Cams elec. ign. conversion. It would pull good up until ~50 mph and then I have no more pull left even with more throttle. That ign. died so I swapped in a large cap fj60 dizzy...

    22re very advanced timing

    Ive been working on my bad running '86 truck 22re. Timing was WAY advanced, like 40+ degrees btdc at all times. Using my service manual and ohm meter I adjusted my tps and now at idle I'm getting 5deg btdc with the two prong connector shorted, and about 12 deg btdc normal not shorted...

    tps adjustment readings

    I'm testing my tps in my 86 truck 22re. My vta-e2 test 1 is supposed to be like .2 - .8 k ohms, I'm getting 1k. The idl-e2 with feeler guages reads nothing. Actually, if I force the throttle more closed ( no feeler guages) I get small reading, but as I open the throttle at all I loose any...

    2F died at 50mph, help

    My truck is a '76 fj40, stock with the exception of an electronic ignition modification by previous owner. At about 50 mph it stumbled and just died. I can smell fuel when I turn it over for several seconds, and don't get anything but the occasional small backfire as I let off the ignition...

    4" sua lift front + stock spring soa rear?

    I was reading my newest 4wd toyota owner magazine. A dude with a '77 wrote in with a 4" sua in the front and soa in the rear. This sounded like a decent compromise to me. The 4" sua lift springs would aleviate the need for a cut and turn right? SOA in the rear is pretty straight...

    1986 truck intermitent warning lights

    Hello, my A/T temp, charge, and brake warning lights have been blinking on/off randomly, but always all 3 of them at a time. Even sometimes right after a cold startup, so I know the at temp light is bogus. Some kind of short or something. Any ideas on where to start looking. The truck seems...

    76 fj40 exhaust mods

    My exhaust, and catalytic converter as shown, hang way down below the frame. I want to tuck it up and fit a skid plate. My muffler is back under the rear floor. A guy on Ebay has a "modified" old style system with a small round muffler, no catalytic converter, that is supposed to tuck up nice...

    Please help with '76 wiper motor and cover

    I understand that the 75-77 motor is discontinued and that a larger motor and cover from 78+ can be fitted with new tapped holes in the windshield frame. My truck came with this working motor, and a crazy huge and ugly homemade cover. Before knowing about the different covers I had bought a...

    black bezel stock?

    I've got a 1976 sky blue (code 854). My bezel is flat, very faded, black. On the inside also. It doesn't appear to have ever been painted. Is this stock? Most pics the bezels are some color white.
