    1978 FJ40 frame off restore - Arkansas

    I am in Fort Smith too. I used to see this 40 parked in a drive way in town, and I noticed it has not been there for a while. Glad to know it is being redone. I would love to see this once it is complete and ask you some questions. I have a red 71 FJ40 that I would like to restore in the near...

    Vacum assist front drive 71 fj40

    If the light is turning on when you pull the switch, then it is going into 4WD. Sounds like you need to check those hubs and lock them in.

    Stripped Window Regulator

    Hello, I recently torqued the top portion of my door, and my window does not want to travel up or down. The window crank sounds and feels like it is stripped. I plan on taking it apart Wednesday, and I was wanting to ask if this is repairable or not? I plan on trying to spread the felt guides...

    Single Groove Question

    I have a 71 F motor with the single groove pulley. I am wanting to add a mini truck power steering set up. My question is: has anyone pulled a pulley off of another F single groove balancer and mounted it to the existing balancer? I have a spare laying around, and it appears that it can come...

    Best Top/Super Top & Hard Doors

    The bottom of the door is snug to the body/tub. I do not think I can get that much adjustment out of that. I will certainly look into it though. Also, I will not be using the hard top in a long, long time. So, I would like to have them fitting pretty snug up top. Jeff

    Best Top/Super Top & Hard Doors

    I finally got around to installing my new Best Top/Super Top yesterday that i purchased about 2-3 months ago. I am using the hard doors with the soft top. Everything is a real tight fit except for around my driver side door. There is a 0.50 to 0.75 inch gap on the back side of the door down to...

    1UZ-FE & H55F in a 1984 BJ40

    You might try looking on Pirate's board. Look under the Toyota truck section. There is a guy on there talking about the same stuff I think.

    Guys running Webers, need help

    Are you running a fuel pressure regulator? I run a Weber, and I am experiencing the same problem. It is nothing bad, but I do not like the big puff of smoke after waiting for the light to turn. The Weber site "strongly" reccomends that the fuel pressure be regulated to 2-3 psi. I may try this...

    Minitruck brake booster

    I pulled one from a junk yard off of a Toyota Mini. I had to make a couple of minor adjustments to the firewall, but it was nothing a BFH would not take care of. I have not had any problems with it since knock on wood. It was only around $20 too. Jeff

    I had a shift knob turned at a local machine shop. They used a left over piece of aluminum and turned it and tapped it. They even polished my knob

    Rhino Line top Fiberglass

    I did mine, and there are no leaks. Mine had some spiderweb looking spots on it. I thought black would look good on a red cruiser. It does look nice, but the summer sun makes it feel like an oven. It is nice in the winter though. The top will be coming off this summer! Jeff

    Cute Story

    Just a thought. Does your ignition system use points? I always had problems with my points sticking and the result was often backfiring. I have since changed to a electronic ignition (dizzy) after reading posts on this site. I know you were working on the carb, but your distributor may be acting...

    Hello, I have a 71 FJ40 that is pretty much stock. I am wanting to put a suspension lift on it this year and a few other things. My question is: will a 17" wheel work on an FJ40? I was thinking about getting some factory wheels from a Sequoia, 4Runner, Tundra,..... I know a 16" will work...
