Hi All....do to some unfortunate circumstances w my family work situation I am going to have to move this project along unfortunately :-( This pandemic has taken its toll on finances. If you know anybody interested please PM me. Thanks all for all the help on this project, I've had fun working...
Hi All, I did some digging underneath the FJ over the weekend and see no remnants of the FJ62 or the FJ55 vent system anywhere. So I mentioned before I have a parts 97 4Runner from a previous project so Saturday I took the charcoal system out from the drivers side engine bay and going to mess...
Thanks for this. I have 4 lines coming out of side of tank on passenger side. 1 has a rubber cap on it, 1 is the vent that runs back to the filler neck, and 2 of them run up the frame rail and come up by where the canister should be but nothing is there...the lines are just hanging. I was...
So after reading some I'm not sure the PO switched over the fj62 evap system at all. I don't see it under the rig or in the engine bay. Seems I am way off in my thinking and its going to be more complicated then I thought. I do have a FSM for the 62 so going to dig into that and learn.
So on this fuel cap, pressurization issue.....this is my setup. Stock fj62 tank, filler neck and fuel door is stock '72 FJ55 along with the fuel cap. My old fuel cap has no venting like the newer fj62's have so I am guessing after I put 5 gallons in it the other day and put the old fuel cap on...
Upper and lower core support and radiator all look in stock location. Mounting bolts for radiator measure 24 1/4" center of bolt to center of bolt.
Glad to help, lord knows all you guys have helped me a ton. Feels good to help somebody else! If you need any other pics let me know.
Another interesting discovery tonight on my rig....I co.e home from work and send the wife out to the garage to get me a beer, lol, yeah right, so I go get a beer and I open garage door and big time gas fumes. I look at pig and gas is leaking out of the gas cap and by fuel door. It only has...
Thanks, these tires are well used and have a feeling one has a broken belt. All TRE are tight as are wheel bearings. Anybody see anything wrong w the steering setup or angles? It has a 3" lift.
Fan to radiator is 3/4's of an inch. No shroud which I need to add as well as figure out why temp gauge doesn't work. Looks like the stock FJ55 radiator. Power steering setup is FJ62 everything including steering column and controls w a FJ55 steering wheel. Just to be clear this FJ is a...
Ask and you shall receive! I'll be under the pig tonight trying to figure out a 45-50MPH death wobble I experienced while on a test drive the other night.....pics to come later tonight! I know the sty loves pics!
So looking at this motor and gear it appears the keys are built into the gear. The replacement gear Scraps pointed out above looks like its a smooth bore hole? Heres a couple pics of what I have. I also am trying some 3M adhesive which is really strong to see if I can buy some life but I...
I must say after watching Cruiser Solutions YouTube vids of the 78 FJ55 restoration where they take a pig that looks like it needs a little bodywork and they basically uncover so much rot under a shell that didn't look that bad I can honestly say I do not have the skills or equipment to go at...
Thanks @scrapdaddy , of course mine is the shape that is not available :-( Have to dig some more. My tailgate has the stamped logo so even though body is a '72 tailgate appears to be '75 or newer. This pig is a mix of ALOT of different LC's! LOL.
