    Butchered 1975 40, At Least it Started Life as a 40.

    Anyone wonder if the poor truck is embarrassed for itself? If I were that truck, I would have broken down on who ever made me that way.....a lot....

    True sin right there...... To leave a Toyota emblem on that is an insult to the company

    What have you done to your Land Cruiser this week?

    Finally got a chance this weekend to give the old girl a carb tune. Hadn't had a chance since we re-did the top end / Head gasket. Then took her for a test ride down the rode, running like a top! So very happy to have the truck back out and running again. On another note, Happy Halloween everyone!

    Finally got some more time with the truck. Set vale clearances then re-assembled a bunch of odds and ends. Ran it to setup timing and idle etc. Gave it another oil change and also greased all points, checked oil levels in tranny and t-case. Changed oil in rear end and...

    Got up this morning to do some electrical cleanup, I'd love to gut the electrical and start again but that's not in the cards this season.

    What have you done to your Land Cruiser this week?

    Threw in a new battery and fired it up:) Purrs like a kitten. Let it get to temp and now it's cooling for a re-torque! Valve cover is soaking in the new parts washer, 40 years of burnt on grime needs removal. Kids are now home so further work is postponed. We have some wiring to clean up around...

    FJ40 LENGTHENING

    Check out this build thread of a local guy to this area that did a stretch, turned out really nice but, as you'll see from the thread, he put a lot of work into it: https://forum.ih8mud.com/showthread.php?t=182303

    What have you done to your Land Cruiser this week?

    Monday night: Lapped valves and installed new valve seals. The old valves seals were completely shot, happy to do new ones. New ones are SOR seals, we'll see how well they hold up. Tuesday night: Got the head back on and torqued (happy to see an OEM toyota gasket on that block!). Since the...

    SOR Valve seals

    Anyone have experience using the valve stem seals that come in the engine rebuild gasket kit from SOR? Yes, I know, should just buy toyota, but the head is off, and we have the seals here. Looking for feedback in terms of reliability / longevity. Thanks for any feedback!
