So like many others, I found that my new to me split case had stripped fill plug threads due to overzealous tightening by a PO. I looked through many threads and there are a range of separation options out there from the temporary press fit plugs, to tapping an oversized plug, to the thread...
I've noticed that I'm not getting email notifications for PM's recently. Is this a server change issue or does anyone know if I've unwittingly changed something in my profile?
Thanks!

Did image size get lowered over the last few days? Could not upload 3mb files like previously. Had to compress below 1mb. Tough to do on a phone. Hopefully only temporarily.

I’m looking for the grab bar that goes on the dash above the glove box. Cruiserparts has them used for $40 but I’d prefer to support Mud. Please let me know if you have one you’d part with. Thanks!

So instead of finishing one project before starting another, I've decided to begin the teardown of the new-to-me 82 troopy.
This one is a GCC-spec troopy that originally came with factory air but no heat and manual steering.
Most recently it was used as a school bus in the mountainous western...
Hi all,
I am looking for the rear upper header for a 1982 FJ40. The one on the truck is rusted to all get out.
Need a strait one in good condition. Color is unimportant.
Thanks for reading!

Hopefully an easy question for the gurus: what is this item called and are they off the transmission or transfer case?
Can't seem to locate them on parts diagrams.
Thanks!

Hey,
I'm trying to help a buddy troubleshoot a problem with a buddy's rear axle rebuild.
The hub preload is around 12 lbs. via fish scale without even tightening the lock nut. Is it the seals that are making it too tight? Is there something we are missing? Is there a method to loosen it up...
@cruiseroutfit, I'm installing the H55F rebuild kit and everything is going well. I'm stumped on where the two small o-rings go that are shown in the pic below. I believe the washers are for the drain/fill plugs as noted on your sight, but the o-rings...

Hi All,
After purchasing this truck back in 2013 and starting working on it at the beginning of 2014, I finally feel like I've made enough progress over the past 2-1/2 years to start a thread about it.
It's a 1984 FJ40, FJ40LV-KC, 033 White, with the H41 transmission, power steering and...
Hi,
Posting in the 60-series section as I have a 5 speed transmission out of a 1986 Middle East-spec FJ62 (FJ62LV-MCV) that I am in the process of rebuilding to put in my FJ40. The transmission output shaft has wear where it "meshes" with the transfer case input gear. The input gear appears...
Has anyone seen a daihatsu fusible link in a late-model (or any) FJ40? This is what I'm up against. Picture is from when purchased.
Installed in place of the voltage regulator (which is now on the DS fender). The bracket perfectly fits the VR bracket, but I haven't begun to trace the...
I am looking for a late model heater water pipe, P/N 87248-90A06, as shown in the diagram below. Should be the one that fits the 79+ trucks.
PO took out all the under-hood heater parts but left the in-cab portion. I'm trying to assemble the full set...
Thanks!

I am looking for recommendations for torque wrenches and a multimeter.
For the torque wrenches I am thinking to get both an foot-pound and an inch-pound wrench.
For the multimeter I would like one with a continuity tester.
Do you guys have any recommendations on what worked for you?

I have the opportunity to pick up a H55F transmission and the attached split transfer case from a 1988 non-US FJ62. The FJ62 transfer case appears to have the mechanical 4WD selector and not a vacuum actuated one. I currently have a 1984 non-US FJ40 with the H41 transmission and the associated...
I am looking for the emergency brake switch bracket that would hold the e-brake light switch as part of the hand brake. It looks like the attached one.
Anyone have one that they no longer need with or without the actual switch?
Thanks!

I also have four rear license plate lamp lenses (P/N 81271-10010) available. Cost is $10 each plus shipping. Shipping is estimated at $3.20 for registered air mail from Saudi Arabia. I could not source these in the states, but perhaps they could still be found. I believe these should also fit...
I have four accelerator torque rod bracket cushions (P/N 90540-09059) available. Cost is $10 each plus shipping. Shipping is estimated at $3.20 for registered air mail from Saudi Arabia. I could not source these in the states, but perhaps they could still be found.

Hi all,
At the request of a fellow mudder I went to the local Toyota parts dealer to see what was available for the FJ45s. Here is what I found. While I understand that a lot of this may be locally available, the costs in Saudi may be cheaper given the lack of tax.
If anyone needs these...
Hello,
I am looking for the upper and lower heater control lights as well as the lower bracket. My truck didn't come with them. Any help would be appreciated!
