Looking for a radiator core support for my 84’. Prefer one without rust and straight, unlike the one I currently have. I’m in Arizona and willing to pay for shipping.
In the middle of doing a reseal of transmission and transfer case and discovered what I think is too much play in the output shaft bearing. Does anyone know how much play, if any, should be in the bearing? I can grab it and wiggled it around which seems too much in my mind.
thanks, Matt
I recently bought some parts for my FJ40 from a really nice guy in Oregon last month and made the mistake of listening to his description of an FJ60 he was also selling. Once he sent me the pictures of it, I knew my wife would not approve of the conversation let alone the discussion of...
Hey everyone,
I’m a 40 guy and spend all of my time in the 40 section. I am looking to pick up an 84’ FJ60 and noticed some funky fenders on this one that I am interested in buying. The problem is, I have searched and can’t seem to find if these things are fiberglass or where they are from...
Anyone know where to source wiper motor parts? I have a 75’ and am looking to replace the magnets that sit around the motor shaft. I have been searching and cannot find anything. Thanks, Matt
Hey all,
My 75' FJ40 has died twice on me and I suspect the Distributor or the pickup inside. I have checked the fuel bowl on the carb and every time this has happened, there is fuel half way up the sight glass. I feel comfortable saying it is electrical at this point. First time it happened...
Can any Arizona folks give some insight on emission testing in AZ? I currently live in Washington State and am planning on moving to AZ in about a year. I currently do not have emission testing here in WA, but understand there is emission testing in AZ, as per the AZ DOT website. I have a 75...
Finally got new suspension and tires. I ordered the 4 inch HFS lift kit from Torfab in Everett Washington and had Torfab do the install. I would have liked to to have done the lift myself, but just don't have time with work and family life. I then put new BF Goodwrich KO 33x10.5x15 tires on...
75' fj40 with a 2f out of an 83' fj60 @approx 150k. Runs strong with rebuilt carb by forum member. Tub has little rust, top and doors need work. Have aluminum tail gate with tire carrier and bikini top. Have axle seals and front disc brake kit ready to be installed with extra bin full of...
Quick version....
75' 40 with recently installed newer 2F. Using original 4 speed transmission, I replaced pilot bearing and throw out bearing, clutch disc and flywheel were inspected and looked fine. After about 150 miles, I developed a slight squeal while driving home one evening. this...
I actually got it running last week, but finished painting (primering) and putting the doors back on so that I can drive it in the regular rain we have here in the horrible state of Washington. I almost forgot how much fun it was to drive! I replaced the old tired motor with that of a 2F out...
I just transplanted this 83' fj60 motor into my 75' fj40. I think I have the ignition wiring correct, just not sure which wire this plug off the coil goes to. I followed coolermans thread on the swap and it states connect to a 12VDC (switched). Not sure if it should be the red wire or the...
I cant remember where these wires are suppose to go....I know that the large black and yellow one goes on the + side of the coil along with the black and white. I also know that the red one goes to switched 12v, on the coil side, but what about the other end near the starter? thanks, Matt
I have an 83' 2F I'm putting in my 40 and am going to use the stock 3 piece exhuast manifold. Question is, one side will swivel, the other won't and I think I should replace those ring gaskets but can't get the thing apart....ANyone know how to get this thing apart? Thanks, Matt
I have searched and cant seem to come up with the result. I have located a 2f out of an 83' FJ60 with only 150K and want to put it into my 75 FJ40. It should fit right? I know the transmissions are different, but the motor should bolt up to my 4 speed? Thanks in advance, Matt
I am still having problems with my 76 Aisan on my 75 40. It all started after I had a new Thrush muffler put on. Bucked, sputtered and died under load. It ran fine before the muffler.
I rebuilt the carb and it is a lot better, it will idle fine. I can slowly rev it up to higher rpms, but...
History....75' 40 had 2F head rebuilt last summer,
-finally got it all assembled in October, took off the Holley carburetor and replaced with a 76 Aisan.
-Had the rusted out, barely hanging on cherry bomb muffler replaced with a thrush last month.
-Ran just fine before the muffler, when I...
While in the process of diagnosing my acceleration hesitation/stall/backfire, I found that the distributor does not have a condensor. This whole ordeal began after I had a new thrush muffler was put on. Before that, the 40 ran fine. The day I picked it up, it ran like crap. I then rebuilt...
