    Looking for Mechanic to do Diesel Swap in Michigan

    I'm hoping to find a mechanic to perform a diesel swap....drivetrain from my '87 HJ60 (5 spd. tranny, 2H motor) into a '85 FJ60 body and frame. Both vehicles are complete, but have been sitting for a few years. The frame of the HJ is super rusty and I had to stop driving it several years back...

    EDIC Motor Not Functioning....HELP

    Early this year, the EDIC motor on my '87 HJ60 was malfunctioning, one day it started switching on and off on its own, and would continue switching on and off with the key in the off position. I sprayed it with some penetrating spray and it was working normally for months. Then the other...

    Will a turn signal/headlight switch from an FJ work on an HJ?

    So I need to replace the headlight/turn signal switch on my '87 HJ and was wondering if I can use one from an FJ or if I need to find a 24 volt switch? Thanks.

    What's up with my brights.....electrical or do I just need new bulbs?

    No click from under the dash.....they are the brights not the headlights - the headlights work fine. It happened one night and then didn't happen the next night - and I haven't really driven it anywhere since then.

    What's up with my brights.....electrical or do I just need new bulbs?

    So the past two nights when I have tried to turn my brights on either thay haven't come on at all, and I've clicked them a few more times until they do come, or they come on after a few seconds. They've never done this before and I am wondering if it is an electrical issue or if I just need to...

    My Importation Success Story

    My Hj is registered in Wisconsin...so I don't really know about registering it here in California. I know a couple of guys with HJs registered here though....and I don't think that they had too much of a problem. As long as you have either all of your importation paperwork (the stuff that...

    AltFuel WVO, vegetable oil as fuel: Injector Pump Longetivity

    I wouldn't exactly say that veg-oil is a more limited resource than petroleum....people are coming up with ways to get oil from algae....in terms of it's output per square foot, input verses output, etc., it knocks any sort of vegetable oil crop (corn, canola, soy, etc.) out of the water...look...

    Where to get parts for a FJ to 2H swap?......

    Probably going to go all 12v, but I haven't gotten started on anything yet as I'm kinda in the process of moving and despite it's crusty rusty frame, my stock HJ runs like a champ. I'm also sorta waiting to see if my brother is going to be able to come out and help me with the swap because I'm...

    Where to get parts for a FJ to 2H swap?......

    Would it be possible to use any of the 12v stuff from a 12v BJ60? Also has anyone out there ever installed a 24v to 12v switcher in an LC- so that it starts on 24v and operates on 12v?

    Where to get parts for a FJ to 2H swap?......

    Henry - Pm'd you. Wayneraintree - Why did you decide to go 24V? Aside from starting easier in the cold, what advantages are there? Chris - Can I just order the 12V stuff from Toyota in Oz or Central America? The drivetrain is coming out of the '87 HJ that I've been driving for the last...

    Where to get parts for a FJ to 2H swap?......

    So I'm getting ready to swap the drivetrain from my '87 Canadian HJ into an '84 FJ and am wondering what parts I need for the swap and where to get them? I've been reading up on the subject and am currently leaning toward going 12V after the swap....both trucks are complete so my options are...

    Shipping 3B into US

    You can definitely go pick up an engine from Canada....importation regulations apply to complete running and nonrunning vehicles. Drivetrains fall into the category of parts and you can just drive right through the border with them. When my brother and I were importing an HJ and BJ last year...

    25 year NZ BJ42 import

    You don't need a toyota letter or an RI to bring in a 25 year old truck. I would send them the paperwork AND bring it if I were you - you can print the forms that you need off of the US customs website. They will have them at the port you are using and technically you shouldn't even have to...
