    I bought the same doors several years ago and had the same issue. Just file down the door stop until the latch clears.

    Help with vehicle weight

    So I'm up against an odd situation. I recently sold my 3/4 ton Silverado and bought a new Tundra. It's a very nice truck, but it's not built like the 3/4 ton so I need to buy a weight distribution hitch. To buy the correct one though I need to know the weight of the cruiser. Normally, I'd just...

    Failed smog due to a plugged EGR valve etc.

    I'll check that. Thanks Pin_Head.

    Failed smog due to a plugged EGR valve etc.

    The 40 failed smog with a plugged EGR valve. All of the lines have been cleaned and when manual pressure is applied the valve works. When it's all hooked back up it doesn't. I'm thinking that the passages in the EGR cooler might be blocked. I haven't checked yet because I'm still trying to find...

    V8 with an Orion?

    Who is running a V8 with an Orion transfer case? How has it held up to the torque and power? I'm currenlty running the stock 2F with an SM420 and the Orion. I'm switching to a 420 hp V8, auto trans and, when ready, the Hero 3-speed case. I was thinking about putting the V8 in now with the...

    Rear leaf spring replacement help

    Hey, My rear leaf springs need to be replaced. I currently have the OME CSO17RA springs which, I believe, are for an FJ70. They are no longer being made. Does anyone know of the current equivalent OME spring? Thanks

    Headlights/taillights problem

    A while back the taillights and sidemarkers on my 40 quit working. I checked the fuse under the dash and it's fine. The brake lights and turn signals still work. A while later, the headlights quit working. I have Snake Eye headlights, which have a turn signal incorporated into the bottom of the...

    What Hubs Are Better ??

    18 years of abusing Warn's with 37" tires on the Rubicon, Fordyce, Barret, etc. and never a problem. I'd not worry about it and put the money elsewhere.

    38.5 on 76 fj40

    For what intended purpose? There's a big difference between a grocery getter and running through rocks.

    78 FJ40 rear/locker help

    If you don't want to spend a lot, then the ARB is out. You're looking at around $1000 for an ARB locker and compressor.

    Shackle question

    Needing some info on fixing the shackle angle on the 40. The current shackles were installed when the new springs were installed, but now that they've settled, the shackles seem too short. The 40 sits a little lower in the rear and the shackle angle is off. Should I get longer shackles or does...

    Next Upgrade?

    The first thing I'd do is install the front locker. After that, as Lil' John posted, it depends on the type of wheeling you do. If you do any type of rock crawling, then I'd upgrade the T-case to an Orion. If you haven't had any problems with your stock axles (e.g. you haven't broken one...

    seat belts

    The mounting point should be at or just below shoulder level, but my old set up had the harness mounted above my shoulders and it seemed to work fine (although I never rolled to find out ;)):
