    4.6L Ford/FJ60 engine swap

    ZF transmission out of 1999-2002 F-Series is a 5 speed that is a modular bolt pattern (bolts to 4.6/5.4/6.8L and has a Ford 6 bolt flange and a 31 spline output. Pretty easy to adapt to t-cases with that. You could also spring for a 03+ version that is a 6 speed but they are odd ball 26...

    2nd battery install question

    If you decide to run parallel batteries, there is a right way and a wrong way to wire them. You must spread the leads across the batteries otherwise you will kill both. You are trying to make one large battery out of two batteries. It's a long explanation, but suffice it to say that doing...

    FJ60 Fuel filler neck repair for $22, a how-to

    The two small holes in the filler neck are vent holes - which go on top. The baffled hole is the filler hole - which goes on bottom. If the vent holes are below the filler flap, you will trigger the filler nozzle's overflow function every time you fill up your gas tank, which will sort of...

    For Sale 1984 FJ60 V8, Overdrive, Coilovers, CA Smog Legal

    Thank you. This thing runs awesome and is absurdly reliable. It also sounds pretty mean too. You're right though, you can make pretty wild horsepower out of one of these foxbody engines and still pass CA emissions.

    Project Space Shuttle - 5.0 powered '84 FJ60 on Coilovers

    They were old and nearly down to the wear bar. I run the same tires on my Super Duty and they are great. I got a screaming deal on my dad's old tires so thats why I went to these.

    Most of the inquiries I've gotten were tire kickers anyway, including one that sparked an entire thread devoted to a pissing match. So you're probably good. Send me a PM if you want more details.

    craigslist 1984 FJ60

    Pardon my late response. Trump and I are tweeting back and forth. I'm not angry about the "kid" comment. It's intellectually lazy, and meant to be demeaning. Own it. It's amusing that the only thing you have to go on is age - since you've ruled out experience, knowledge or ability when it...

    broken longfield?

    High mileage (+5,000) Chromoly Birfields tend to start clicking, then soon thereafter have a catastrophic failure (e.g. push the balls out of the cage on a turn). The bell isn't usually cracked when they break because they are usually not hardened to the degree of a factory bell (usually...

    Kid? That's the best you have got? I'll take being a "kid" over being a 43 year-old who can't turn a wrench, figure out how gear ratios work, use Google to find out the wheel lug pattern of an FJ60; yet, still has enough self-confidence to argue with me about gear ratios. The world will always...

    Maybe you can send him a private message full of details superfluous to the sale, not make him an offer, and then pout about how he told you to get lost in a future ad asking for advice on a vehicle that was overpriced.

    15k for something with roof rust and a 2F? Barrett Jackson would be proud.

    For Sale 1984 FJ60 V8, Overdrive, Coilovers, CA Smog Legal

    I'm disappointed no one has even insultingly low-balled me. Not even on Craigslist. I'm mainly getting vague (and grammatically shattered) questions that most people would lie in response to, such as: "How does it handle?" or "how does it drive?" My response, "Like a Formula One car that can...

    For Sale 1988 FJ 62 Toyota Land Cruiser - CLEAN with Chevy 6.0L V8

    You know nothing of my political affiliations. That's a specious argument, since you lost on facts. Just because you don't agree with a law, doesn't mean you get to break it without consequence. I find the smog laws in CA cumbersome, ridiculous and inefficient - however that doesn't mean I...

    Body Shop for Rust Repair; CA

    Having done a rusty roof repair, I would say it's not going to be cheap. There are 3 panels that intersect at the drip rail and usually all of them are bad - which involves a lot of cutting welding and general mayhem. Usually the rust extends a bit farther than you can actually see. You need...

    We actually know each other, and I helped him put a 5.3 and 4L60E in his FJ a few weeks ago. I was deeply annoyed how well the engine fit, how easy the wiring is, and how parts were cheap.

    Death Wobble Help

    Most suspension alignment shops know absolutely NOTHING when it comes to suspension. Death wobble occurs when there is motion in a system and then a spring like correction. It's extremely prevalent on shackle reversed leaf sprung vehicles, though it also inherent in a leaf-sprung vehicle with...
