    Odometer not working-why?

    My 72 FJ40 has a 77 motor and 4 speed trans. I am running my original gauge cluster with a speedo swapped in from a donor 77 cluster. What I don't get is the speedo works fine as well as the tenths of a mile indicator. It spins all day long but never turns a mile over-any ideas?

    FJ40 Top-Has anyone ever...

    Replaced the rivets with machine screws and nuts and washers. I am redoing my top now and will be finishing the rain gutter shortly.

    saw the club bulletin

    Hey just got my new Toyota Trails and saw the club bulletin. Thanks Mark and Karl for making it happen. I will need to make a really small version of the logo if we plan to use it that small again. It all filled in and was not very readable.
