I have a clone 61 I built several years back. Have always had an intermittent issue with the starter clicking. Only happens when ambient temp is high (summer months in TX) and the engine is at normal operating temps. Originally had a 24v relay on there that I harvested off a 61 harness. Swapped...
Broke the hazard switch on a HJ61. Looking for a good used RHD one out of a 60 or 61. Not sure if there’s a difference between late and early ones but this truck is a 1988. If you have only let me know the price shipped to 78070 (Texas). Thanks. Jimmy

Converting an 88 HJ61 from Auto to an H55. Ordered an Aisin clutch kit from Cruiser Outfitters. Kit # is in the pic below. Have another 12HT out of a FJ62 that was converted by the previous owner (had it done at Manafre). Noticed quite a difference in the two bearings. The one on the left came...
I like to create a thread for each cruiser I do any type of resurrection with. Main reason for this is to document my work and allow for others to provide feedback etc which is invaluable as I continue to learn more about these rigs. There’s another thread my buddy @CaptClose created years ago...
Curious if there’s any feedback on this gasket kit. I’m building up a long block that someone else put together with this kit. I have a complete Toyota gasket kit but really don’t want to break it down unless there’s good reason to. Thanks. Jimmy.
Copying @BigHighBlue as he know the guy that...
Recently picked up a 61. Great bones but needs a new trans (auto) and the sunroof is off track and has leaked for years. So I’m pulling the interior and checking everything out and came across this HKS turbo timer. Wires run up and seem to tie into some connections below the steering column...
Asking $6300. Here’s a CL listing so you can get the detail. I am flexible on the price. Especially for a mud member. Bought it a year ago with intentions of doing the motor swap for my brothers daughter. He’s wanting to go a different direction and I have no interest owning a 100. My focus...
I’m looking for the shifter out of a BJ60 5-speed. Toyota part # is 3353060180. These were all one piece which is different from the current available shifter # 3353060160 that we can buy over the counter. The later ones have the anti-vibration sleeve. Let me know if you have one you’d be...
Have had this for about 6-7 years. All stock except for the 80’s Supra style front seats. Has 290Kish kilometers. Titled in my name, but originally from Canada. So the body is beyond my skill level or interest in tackling. I’d do a body swap but have too many other projects in front of...
I tore down this 12HT that belongs to a friend which spun the #1&6 rod bearing. The machine shop states it’s not advisable to grind it as #6 is pretty torn up. Pic is of #6. I’ve done some research via google and here on MUD and there’s been some discussions around these two cranks being...
So this started happening in my brothers 62 @kmj64 during the trip to SAS6 in Ouray back in August. On trails the truck would shut off without warning as he was blowing the ecu fuse. @Zjohnsonua and @samc2447 were helping him limp it along (plus many other mud friends) and actually thought the...
Posting up to see if there’s any interest. I’ve had this a little over 3 years. I’ve put around 1500 miles on it. It has 334 kilometers on the ODO (223k US). It’s the 12HT with a 5-speed. The PTO was removed by the previous owner in Japan. It’s had one repaint and has some rust coming through...
Have had this for some time. Have no need for it. If you’re that person with a rolled 80 and considering a roof swap this may be the one for you. In great shape except for two holes up front that must have been for a pair of lights or something. Can be easily welded up. For the right price I’d...
So there’s not a lot of threads on this. Bought new outer felts from Toyota. Just painted this truck so wanted to see if I could get the new felts to reattach to the chrome base. When I painted my personal 60 several years ago (blue truck in the pics) I could not figure out how to make it work...
I have 3 of these that I bought from an EBAY seller. They were advertised as fitting the 60 series trucks and even had a picture of a 60. I made the mistake of not checking the part #. This was my oversight and usually vet everything. So the seller is in the Asian market and it will cost me...
So I'm in Saskatchewan and picked up an 87 HJ61. This is the 5th truck I've imported in several years and typically paid 2 or 2.5% duty tax to US Border and Customs. Today I stopped at the customs office before crossing into Canada to verify some paper work. The officer asked where the...
Anyone have a rusted FJ62 frame? If so and you can cut the rear cross tube that the shocks mount to. I don’t care if it’s rusted by the frame. Really only need the passenger side where the tube curves forward. Plan to integrate it into my 60 which the tube is straight all the way across. Was...
Great starter/project 60. Full disclosure….I’ve only driven this truck on and off my trailer, then parked it in September of 21. Picked it up from a guy in Abeline and he had it on his hunting ranch for years. It’s obviously lived somewhere north early on in its life. Rust in the rear...
So I’ve painted a few cruisers and been doing this on and off since high school in the 80’s. I’ve had this 60 for a few years. It’s an original TX truck coming to San Marcos via Victoria most of its life. It has a few small rust spots I’ll correct. Mostly around the plugs left behind after...
Mark with Cruiser Crap let me know he’s no longer selling the console for 60’s. Anyone know who actually makes this console and where it can be sourced from? Both my brothers have put them in their 60’s recently and I’d like to get one as well. Would buy a used one if available as well. Thanks...
