Has anyone heard from Jim C @ TLC Performance in awhile?
First I want to make sure he is okay...
I sent a carb to him on 10/4.
He said it would be ready in 6 weeks, I haven't heard anything and cant get him on the phone or email response.
Thanks
Stock suspension 71 fj55. Anyone know if the Summit Wheels (16x7 6x5.5 with 4"backspace SKU: 12-670604) will work without rubbing? Also can I run 235/85/16? Best Guesses? I just installed wilwood disc brakes all the way around. Could I push it to a 255/85/16, or need a lift for that?
Also, I...
Thanks guys. I don't think I will go "frankencruiser" and add Chevy parts... Considering just getting a new booster, calipers, turning drums and getting new shoes. With the drums dialed in they should lock the brakes just fine, no? It's not like I am changing over to ABS... OR are the discs...
Ok - Thanks that might work. Yesterday I ran across JT Outfitters who has a kit that just bolts on the existing axels to converts both the front and back for $1k, supposedly it includes everything, even brake lines. It's all Chevy parts... sounds easier and cheaper... any downside to this?
Where can I purchase a "flasher" for a 71' fj55? Hazards will flash, but turn signals will not. Turn signal lights up when lever is up or down, but have to manually move lever to make them blink... so stupid. Im a novice electician...
HELP WITH BLINKER RELAY!! 1971 fj55
My Hazards flash just fine and my blinker lights turn on when I move the blinker to left or right, BUT... the blinkers do not flash on their own. So... I manually just click the flasher handle up an down when I need to use them... this is getting old.
Can...
My brake booster went out on my 71' fj55...
So it's time to put discs on the front...
Any recommendations for the best place to pick up a kit to do that?
Thanks
1971 fj55 Everything was working last week, I left for a trip and came home to my tailgate and headlights not working!? Three weeks ago I took the tailgate apart and replaced the broken plastic gear and put it back. At first it operated perfectly from dash and tailgate key, then it was sporadic...
@Dizzy - The best I can tell that hose just clipped under the back of the bed as a breather, works fine. That is unless I fill the tank to the top, then gas pours out... If I leave it there I need to find some way of putting a filter or something on the end so dirt or whatever doesn't get in and...
Thanks Dizzy, sounds like you know your stuff!
I am looking at my Haynes Schematics but dont think any of them match my pig, once I poke it through the grommet I have no idea where to connect it next. Everything inside the panel looks connected, the vented cap sounds easy!! I could look around...
Im new to the iron pig, but trying to get my 1971 fj55 fixed up. Recently someone tried to steal gas and cut my Vent hose going in my fuel tank. (They didn't get anything) Now, I don't know what to do with the new one that I put on. I hooked it to the gas tank in poked it in the grommet in the...
