    Front suspension question for 1985 Pickup

    What would this part of the front axle connecting the axle and frame be called and why would it be there? Bought this truck with the lift and suspension set up the way it is and was under there looking everything over and noticed a crack in the bracket attaching it to the frame. Not sure why...

    Anyone here have a source for Transfer Case Bushings approximate 3/4 ID and 1 1/8 OD

    So my transfer case uses the Advance Adapters plate to mount the transfer case. The bolts holding the mount to the frame are about 3/4 diameter with a 15/16 head. I will get exact measurements when I get home tonight. Looking on the Advance Adapters website they don't have just a replacement...

    back half of FJ40 expedition trailer

    I have a 74 FJ40 and when I bought it from my Father-in-law, it came with the back half of another fj40 which was converted into an offroad trailer. I still use the back half to hold my hard top during the summer, and I want to continue to be able to do this. But I also plan on making it my...

    Cummins Engine, 40" tires, heated seats and steering wheel

    It will also tow anything I put behind it. Bought a 18' AEV Prospector XL. Have been looking at one for the last 7 or so years. Finally found one I could afford and that had most of the things I needed/wanted. Had to fly out to Durango, Colorado from California to buy it. It needs new tires...

    hesitation / bucking while driving - 22R

    Have an 85 pickup with the 22R. It has done this to me three times now where when I start to accelerate while driving it will buck/hesitate. This happened the first time after I accelerated to get onto the freeway (using the term accelerated very loosely here). As I was accelerating it...

    As the title says. My side markers are working with both the flashers and turn signals but not the front corner turn signals. Bought new turn signals and installed. Bulbs are good. Even pulled the wiring and switched to make sure it wasnt the connection. Still the lights for the side makers...

    1985 22R - Getting it all ready for one of my daughters.

    I bought a pretty clean 85' pickup with a 22R. Was looking for the 22RE, but found this, which already had good bones. So now I am in the process of getting it ready for my daughter to have a clean, reliable, daily driver, and occasional 4x4er. I will be taking advantage of the couple of...

    Alternator suggestions for SBC

    I have gone through two summit racing 140amp alternators now. Both times the internal regulators have failed after minimal usage. I was using the sum-810344 alternator as I need the extra amps for winching, stereo, and the Derale dual electric fan. Any suggestions on an alternator (3 wire)...

    Home Made 10lb CO2 tank / tire filler

    I have a twin ARB compressor installed in my FJ40 for air. But I have 3 other off-road rigs and it doesn't make any sense to buy another one. So I decided to try and make a CO2 tank for the other trucks. I recently went on a 4wd trip with a buddy that had one and was quite impressed with the...

    New to me pickup. 85' with lots of wheeling parts already. pics attached.

    Went down on Monday and bought a really nice 85 pickup from a great family in Paso Robles, CA. Car has quite a bit done to it. And since it will be for one of my daughters (in a couple years), I have time to sort out anything that needs fixing. Though it looks as if it was well taken care of...

    Swamp Lake Trail - California - Anyone been / want to go?

    Looking at tackling this trail maybe this summer. Looks like a really good trail. None of my Overland buddies want to take it on in their soft rigs. Gonna be taking the FJ40 up there but the wife won't let me go alone. Have seen a lot of Rubicon's and modified 4Runners on the trail but not...
