Thanks for all the info on this forum. I lost all my heat on 89 fj-62 and after searching I tackled the job of replacing my thermostat, and flushing my system and sure enough the thermostat was stuck open, but the oring was toast as well.

wires
here they are and i cant get a good pic tonight but it seems to follow the frame rail. The original owner had a toyota cruise control installed at the factory, but it does not work right now. Could this be a part of it?

Alright so today something strange happened. in my '89 fj62.
When I have the 4wd button out, the transfer cae should be disengaged, but it engages my tcase. With it pushed in it disengages the 4High system.
What could have caused this to suddenly change to this, because 2 days ago it was...
how is the factory rack held down? is it from the inside up or the outside down? I cant seem to find the access on the top of the rack, so I am thinking it is bolted up through the roof from under the headliner.
Let me know guys. I am a new 62 owner and I am fixing up some old busted stuff...
