    SD-40 Vacuum Advance Compression Fitting (for carb)

    I'm starting to understand why people drop American V8s in these.

    SD-40 Vacuum Advance Compression Fitting (for carb)

    I don't have an extra, but, did you find one? Try over the FJ40 tech section. Yep, there are some oddities with these things.

    rear wheel cylinders 1962

    Paul, try the same question on the FJ40 tech section. You may get more answers...or not? I just finished all four corners on my 67/68 but that doesn't help you much. Yes, overseas shipping is out of control. I've sent off parts to a buddy in Australia and costs are brutal, yet I get my pull...

    front brake hose spring

    I had to go with a shorter springs as the new brake hoses are longer so the spring needed to be shorter. About 2.25 inches or about 50 + mm. Should be able to obtain at a hardware store. I'll do a better job on the spring presentation once all the other issues are addressed. For now the...

    front brake hose spring

    Does this help? I used the old surround on the brake hose. The springs were a tad bit too long so I had to shorten.

    front brake hose spring

    I found some springs at Home Depot that were close enough. In the end, it's just a spring.

    The brake job

    It's interesting to me all the '65 parts on the '68 (Sept '67 build) 40 I'm working. This week a "full brake" job and if I'm correct the removed and replaced wheel cylinders are cast with 65 (so far) meaning the year?. Perhaps I'm wrong and it doesn't mean the year but I like to pretend. The...

    Con-Ferr

    It always amazes me when reviewing all the messed up things people did to vehicles. As an example of hideous rides, Bucket T roadsters. I look at them now and think "what the what"? And yet there are still oldsters living in the bizarre world of that Bucket T roadster. Go figure. The...

    Thanks for the input Downey. Love a good learning. What do you reckon the timelines (years) were for the Chevrolet installs?

    Con-Ferr

    Thank you lads. I am reading with interest as I have not read any articles on how to I.D a Con-Ferr build. I would be curious on how many they built. I still have a lot to learn (came from old Broncos). I'll get that issue of Hot Rod to help in my education. My curiosity was peeked when...

    Con-Ferr

    I have numerous ads for the Con-Ferr business in L.A. I got to thinking about the V8 conversions in the 60's/70's for the FJ40's that Con-Ferr sold. Were there any identifying tags, stampings etc that would indicate the conversion was done by them?

    Intel question on 40

    Fellers, is there a book best suited for information on the FJ40? I like reading on changes thru out the years. So far all I have is the The Land Crusier Legend book. But, it covers many Land Cruisers and I'm not interested in those. My focus is the 40. Some of the knowledge you guys have is...

    Reflecting on reflectors :meh:

    In my casual search for a Koito red side rear reflector dated 1965 I've found the asking prices to be so unrealistic I've come to the conclusion that a name and a date won't make my life any better. So off to the trailer supply I go.
