    hardtop woes

    I finally got around to putting the hardtop on after many years of running without it. For some reason now the hatch and opening do not seem to fit correctly. The opening on the hardtop looks a bit out of sq. It seems as if the back sides of the hardtop should move in so as to narrow the hatch...

    hard top to tub

    I am getting ready to put the hardtop back on the 40. I dug the weather stripping out and it is shot. Was thinking of trying the CCOT strip. Anyone out there use it? Feed back? I was thinking the vinyl bead along the edge of the tub would be a little added paint protection. If you have used...

    Longest Owner/Driver of FJ40s

    I don't know if this has ever been asked, so I thought I would throw it out there. Just for curiosity's sake, who has been driving fj40s for the longest continual period? My first cruiser was a 1970, that I purchased in late 1971. I drove it till I rolled it down a 100 foot canyon. As soon as I...

    86 k30 death wobble

    Hi just returned from a trip of about 800 miles. Was only about a block from my house and the truck developed a terrible death wobble. This was not a slight front wheel shimmy, but a gut wrenching, tooth jarring wobble. The entire truck shook like it was going to come a part. I stopped, the...

    vss and idle problems Help!

    Hi I posted here almost a year ago about a surge/hunting idle problem. Here is the link to the post. Finally took it to the shop and had it put on a machine. The tech said there was a vacuum leak on the driver's side intake. Well I replaced the intake gaskets and the truck still had the same...

    Chevy TBI idle problems

    Recently rebuilt the 454 in my 1990 TBI Burb. I am having a terrible time with getting it to idle smooth. The engine has a little over 500 miles on it. I have spent countless hours going over the engine looking for vacuum leaks and believe every thing is OK on that front. I have replaced the...

    1990 Chevy BB timing

    Just finished installing a new 454 in my 1990 TBI suburban. The truck has OBD1 and is a California vehicle. The problem I am faced with is setting the timing. This is the only Chevy I have owned, that is new enough to have OBD. What needs to be disconnected to set the initial base timing? The...

    Suzuki Sidekick locking hubs

    Hi I am posting for a friend that just purchased a Sidekick. He invited me over to see his new ride and wanted me to show him how to operate the 4wd. There seemed to be a problem with the locking hub on the driver's side. We couldn't get it to move from the free position to the locked position...

    Fuel pump kill switch

    Hi Looking to install a kill switch to fuel pump of my 90 suburban. After looking at the wiring diagram, I am wondering where would be best to wire it in. Should I wire it in between the fuse panel and FP relay (20amp) or directly before the wire goes into the gas tank. There is also the...

    Chevy kick down

    Hi, just purchased a 1986 Chevy 1ton 4wd dually. I took it on a 1000 mile trip and noticed it doesn't seem to kick down when I jump on the throttle. The PO had switched out the intake and carb to Performer products. It is smog legal. Can anyone tell me the basics of testing and replacing the...

    parking brake, speedi sleeve and drive shaft

    Need some information on parking brake and speedi sleeve. First has anyone sourced just the parking brake springs? SOR and CCOT both offer complete kits, but I only need the springs. $OR has just the springs, but the shipping is a killer for 3 small parts. Does Toyota still carry them? Can I...

    I need to pull the turbo 400 trans from my 1990 suburban/454 . I am thinking that there are 5 bolts that hold the trans to the engine. Does anyone know how many trans to engine bolts there are total? The engine is pretty tight to the firewall and it's hard to see and reach. I want to make...

    Hooking up an ammeter

    I justed picked up a nice SW 100amp ammeter. It seems to be new. I was going to hook it up, but noticed that on the back it says to use with shunt. Would the gauge have had a specific shunt or bridge across the terminals? Can I make a replacement? If so, what would be the best material? Copper...

    sag ps pump on Chevota problem

    Got around to replacing the leaking ps pump today. Went to Autozone and picked up a pump for 80s Chevy truck. I figured it would match up with the leaker I had picked up from the P&P. I couldn't remember what model or year truck I got the leaker from. The new pump looked the same as the old...
