    FJ60 Brake Booster options

    UPDATE: I just finished up swapping the 94 four runner booster for the City Racer Booster. That fixed my issues. No more stiff pedal at the top. The City Racer booster goes in with the check valve at around the (EDIT: 7 oclock position) so no need to use the metal vacuum line that goes...

    FJ60 Brake Booster options

    I ordered the city racer booster today. Going to try that since there is positive feedback on this one. It's a double diaphragm. No idea if the 94 4 runner non abs booster that I have now is single or double diaphragm. I don't think a larger master is going to be great without larger...

    I hear ya. I just don't like that it's got a hard and sort of non responsive feel at the top of the pedal. I'd like it to immediately start to sink and start to grab.

    FJ60 Brake Booster options

    I replaced my check valve for one with some better air flow. This helped lessen the time the pedal goes from hard at the top to boost kicking in and pedal sinking and grabbing. If I feather the brakes before pushing for the stop I'm fine. But no way are they going to lock up if I slam on...

    FJ60 Brake Booster options

    Drove around a bit more today. Pedal seems stiff at first then after a second it starts to sink as the vacuum booster kicks in and THEN it grabs. It's like there is a bit of a lag in the booster kicking in. I did check my freeplay and it's in spec. I may try to move my inline check valve...

    Yes, the rod on the outside needs to be adjusted to flush up to the inside bore of the master cylinder. For this use the H tool pictured earlier in the thread. The pedal rod...that connects to the pedal will also have to be adjusted. First on the bench to get the clevis fork and nut close...

    FJ60 Brake Booster options

    My pedal was pretty low. About 5.75 inches from the carpet to the top of the pedal. I adjusted it up to 6.25 which is probably right when you take into account the carpet thickness. Can't get much more anyway because the threads on the rod are unthreading from the clevis fork and there's not...

    I'll go through the pedal adjustments today and see if it helps. these:

    FJ60 Brake Booster options

    There is some play in the pedal arm travel between the brake switch stop and the booster fork. Not much but it is a little loose. Should I just extend the fork out further and get it more snug pushing the pedal arm tighter against the tail light stop switch? That way when I push down on the...

    Called Oriellys this morning and it appears their 87 land cruiser brake booster is in fact mythical...ie "not in stock right now". So, I'm back to the drawing board. I'll check my vacuum this morning at the intake port and go from there. It seems like I have a lag in the vacuum boost. When...

    FJ60 Brake Booster options

    I put a new (Read flexible and pliable) 3/8 fuel line about almost 2 feet. the nipple is in the 5 oclock position and points out. No way to rotate it. So I had the soft line going up and over the booster. Now I have it connected to the u shaped hard line that mounts to the booster. But that...

    FJ60 Brake Booster options

    I put the 94 four runner booster in but apparently it was just the nipple and NOT a check valve. I thought the check valve might be behind the housing due to the imprint and the way it was stamped. When I pumped the brakes up and turned on the engine...the pedal ROSE up instead of sinking! So...

    I see the chassis and body FSM shows how to rebuild the booster. Anyone have a clue as to what rebuild kit to get? The one I pulled of my truck says Bendix model # 225-00510 japanese jidoshakiki co ltd...so is that original OEM part? @OGBeno

    I pulled the bad one today. Not very hard at all. Now I'm rolling the dice at the parts store. At least I didn't have to pay for it up front. I ordered a 94 4runner booster without ABS. tomorrow when it comes in I'll have my old booster to compare and make sure the snout is the same and...
