Hello all.
I’m looking to tap the knowledge of the Land Cruiser community to help me figure out what this thing is worth.
I have been eyeballing this FJ55 for the last couple of years, through some detective work I located the owner. The owner is an old guy who bought it either 10 or 20...
With the Beej sold it's time to purge the parts pile.
I have a set of new Nitro Chromoly rear shafts for a full float 40 and 70 series rear, a complete Coastal Off Road body armor set, a functional factory PTO that comes with a rebuild kit, shaft and bumper cradle, and my OEM radiator that...
With the BJ74 sold, it’s time to sell the armor set. I was so excited about this stuff but in the end it wasn’t meant to be.
Front bumper includes hoop, rear bump includes rocker protection hoops and weld in hitch. No swing out.
Sliders are 68”, perfect for a MWB Cruiser.
All together this is...
This is hard to describe. After I replaced the batteries and installed a new negative battery cable, the lights in the dash will flash like the engine has stalled when lugging the engine but not stalling, like when loping along in traffic. I’m not sure why this is happening. Any ideas?
(Don’t...
Hey all,
I'm about to register my California registered BJ74 in Colorado, at which point registration it currently has may not be able to happen again. I am putting it up for sale at a premium, price is non-negotiable. I did a lot of work to get it registered, and I have received renewals from...
I'm the final leg of finally having this thing off road ready (I'll update my thread at some point).
Some of the finishing touches include some suspension tweaks. Current set up is an OME 2" with Nitrocharger Sport shocks (I believe we're looking at 13.74x23.18" in the front, 14.05x23.11" in...
Howdy! It's been a while since I've posted.
I recently got around to installing anpyro and boost gauge so I could shim my waste gate to get a little more boost to compensate for the altitude I moved to. I also removed my muffler which was original and full of ash. Made a huge difference.
It...
I confirmed what everyone was saying about putting a US spec 80 series booster into a 70 series: short answer: it fits!
Long answer-
I didn’t want to deal with bleeding everything, so I managed to remove the booster while keeping my brake cylinder and power steering reservoir sealed. After...
Pretty sure my brake booster just failed. Brake pedal is hard as a rock and brakes are there but not strong at all. Vacuum is there. This was after a pretty good freeze so I’m betting my original booster diaphragm gave up the ghost.
I know the booster bolts in with a lengthened rod. Will the...
Real time advice needed! I’m pulled over on 287 south of Laramie heading to Colorado in my BJ74. Suddenly my temp gauge spiked, but it did it along with my fuel gauge. I do hear bubbling from under the hood.... I don’t know. Truck was running perfectly fine, it couldn’t have been like this for...
Friends- I need some ideas. I’ve spent the last 3 hours pulling things apart and putting them back together trying to find a spot for this 24 to 12v step down converter. It’s the basis for my entire plans for an electrical subsystem. I’ve got all of the components ready to go, but I can’t find a...
I've been wanting to start this thread for the last year. Finally decided it was time to do it. You can follow along in my BS in Instagram as well if you're into that sort of thing-@losangeleslandcruiser. I'll do my best to keep it up! I also really want this to be a record for someone searching...
The liquidation continues... I've got a box of stuff that's gotta go, prices are fair but firm, double check these part numbers on your own:
Aisin CRT-070, which I think fits BJ71, BJ74 clutch slave $120
Aisin CMT-008, 89-95? 22RE Pickup, 4Runner clutch master $30
Aisin CMT-003, 84-88 22RE...
I've got a set of nearly complete seals for an entire FJ40. Off of a 1970. This truck was a 5 year old restoration and doesn't look like it every saw any weather, the customer just wanted to redo it again. Have everything from door seals to hard top and window gaskets. I *think* it's complete...
Hey Everyone,
I've got what I believe to be a complete 3 speed column shift linkage, along with t case shifters and the high/low top plate.
Any reasonable offers accepted! Located in Los Angeles but I will ship (on your dime) if the offer is decent.
Hey Everyone!
The little plastic bits that connect the HVAC panel switch to the cable broke, I'm in search of a new one.
Also looking for the parts that connect the flap to the cable under the dash. Mine is stiff, and the little plastic bushing is worn. My dumbass was trying to reshape it to...
I'm not an AC expert. If it was a standard over the counter AC compressor I'd probably just take it to a shop, but for now I'm trying to figure out what's up with my AC before I just start blindly throwing parts at it or take it in. My AC on my BJ74 was non-op when I got it but everything seemed...
Hey all! Now that I have registration handled I'm focusing on getting my BJ74 in top running condition.
The 13B-T runs great. It's a little grumpy when you first wake it up, after you finally get it warmed up it idles happily at like 550-600. I did a full fuel system hot soak and it really...
I think I’m going with 35” pizza cutters on my BJ74, I’m pretty excited about it. Been eyeballing 17” FJ Cruiser steelies for quite a while.
Anyone have a set installed on their 70/71/73/74? How do they fit? Spacers required?
