    Brake Cylinder Question?

    Update!! My bad as they say. Upon further inspection my eyes were playing tricks on me. Both inlets have the correct cone to seat both lines. So the rears are good to go. Let me switch gears and ask a different question of the group regarding the Front axle. Both Front Axle/Forward cylinders...

    Brake Cylinder Question?

    After a long delay, the resto has resumed on my 1978 Aussie RHD FJ-45. Updated build thread to follow. Problem/question. Purchased 8 new wheels cylinders and installed in their correct positions. All boxes were clearly marked. Then I realized the Rear axle/left rear position only had one side...

    Is the Earth flat? What about a FJ45 roof?

    My top is wrapped up in the garage. Haven’t gotten that far in the resto. But it’s been blasted, primed and painted. I’ll take a couple of photos and post Tomorrow. 😉

    Rear axle locknut SST

    Speaking of rear hubs…quick question: 1978 FJ45, Full Floating, with the axle nut with the axle seal. Once plate and lock nut are secure according to spec, there’s no mention of a torque on the last nut. Been a while since I pulled this rig apart. Feel like it just snugs against the lock nut...

    SOLD FJ45 Steel Cap with Boat Rollers...New Jersey Shore

    Thanks everyone for reaching out. But one of our local members pounced on the cap this afternoon and it’s found a new home.

    SOLD  FJ45 Steel Cap with Boat Rollers...New Jersey Shore

    Afternoon All. As I re-ignite my 45 Frame-Off resto project, I've decided to let this original piece of the rig go as I'll have no practical use for it. Because it is well made, I thought some of you would get much better use out of it on the backroads. The Story: I purchased my 1978 Aussie Spec...

    Slip Yoke/Dust Cover Felt Seal

    Thanks Tan. Wouldn’t be the first time I had to fabricate something. Any suggestions for type of felt?? That is some very dense material. Thx, Ken

    Slip Yoke/Dust Cover Felt Seal

    Afternoon gang. The 45 resto continues and after several searches I've found very little info on those pesky felt seals in the slip yokes dust covers. Only solution I saw was a thread where a rubber boot was placed over the driveshaft. Functional but not what I'm looking to do. Any...

    Zinc Plating Brake Lines

    That's the plan! Thanks again for all the input. As a side note the rest of the Zinc plating came out nice. I'm lucky to have found a plating service about an hour and a half drive north here in NJ.

    Zinc Plating Brake Lines

    Good Morning @Vintij74, @Bear, @cult45. Thank you for your responses. Great, common sense info all around. This is actually a no-brainer considering the work I've already invested in this rig. Verdict: New Brake lines all around!

    Zinc Plating Brake Lines

    Afternoon, looking for opinions on this. Took in all the hardware and had it Zinc Plated. I also took in the Brake Lines, figuring what the hell. Like all the hardware I soaked them in EvapoRust (amazing stuff). I know, they tend to rust from the inside out. My rig came from a dry climate and...

    Nut & Bolt Frame-Off 1978 FJ40 Restoration

    Hey Andrew, beautiful work as always. I'm sure it's somewhere back in the thread but could you give the details on the Valve Cover paint job. It looks perfect and I'm getting close to that point on my restoration. I would think it would look great also on side cover. Thanks in advance, Ken

    What to do, what to do....

    Finished redoing the seat. Very pleased with the outcome. Hey Justin. Quick question: Where did you source the seat covers? I looked quick through the thread and didn't see anything. Sorry if I missed it. I need a set for my RHD 45. Also hoping to find the nice metal backs. Mine have the...

    My FJ45 LPB Huckleberry Hauler

    Hey Mark, I thought we had had a conversation going. Just checked and I see it was back in Dec. 2017. We p'med a little bit, talked job stuff and then 45's. Life has been busy but I'm trying to get the restoration back on track. I desperately need to start the build thread. Maybe tonight. But...
