Greetings all, I'm in the middle of a drawn out rebuild of my '83 SR5 4x4, and I'm hoping for some advise on a source for wiring connections that are OEM-ish, for that era truck. I'm planning on redoing much of the wiring, particularly out to the lighting with thicker gauge and I'd like to...
I hate to do it, because this Land Cruiser is so nice, but I'm afraid to damage it if I take it wheeling, and honestly, I'm a 80's guy, which I have too many off, and need to reduce my collection to a manageable level (yeah, right, will never happen).
I purchased this vehicle last Spring from...
Good Evening, Friends,
My 83 FJ60 stalled out twice on me while driving. Truck just died. I was able to get it started back up the first time, but had to get towed the second time around (on Thanksgiving morning, no less.) Now she won't even start at all. I thought it was a fuel system...
I purchased this vehicle in 2014 in Qatar. Since returning to Toronto, its been in an underground garage. I have Ontario plates.

For this crowd the most pertinent bit of info is the frame is pretty much junked. Couple feeble patch attempts here and there. I have put 20,000+ miles on it this way with no further...
Looking for 1983 IVAN IRONMAN STEWART Pickup Pictures like the Trucks seen Below! The 1984 Pickup is what most of us all remember and are easy pics to find. But looking for that first year pics.

My first post. I have a, new to me, 1983 Land Cruiser with the stock wheels and bumpers. It has and 2.5 OME lift / suspension and 31" tires on 15" stock rims. I have been reading that changing the heavy steel wheels for lighter forged aluminum will really make a difference in the driving...

Ok guys, on a mission to clean out the shop of all parts and stuff I’m not using or see using in the foreseeable future. I purchased a 1983 40 from a member here which remain nameless unless he wants to get involved. The truck was a SOA rig that was running 38.5 Super Swampers. I will post a pic...
Purchased a year ago from RMR 4X4 in Birmingham, AL and isn't getting driven as much as I would like. It has been Mosley modified and was previously owned by a fellow Mud member. Currently has 201, 823 miles and can likely be spoken to by other Mud members that know it. It has Holly Sniper efi...
We have recently decided to relocate, and I must liquidate several collector vehicles from my personal collection. I am torn between keeping this outstanding US Spec 1983 FJ40 and an equally as nice 1973.5 Porsche 911T. I have decided to put both up for sale and will let the market decide...
Hi,
My ignition coil broke on my 1983 Toyota FJ40. The car came from Colombia.
The pictures show the ignition coil that broke, the igniter, and the plate of the car with the model number and VIN.
I am having a hard time finding a replacement. Any help would be much appreciated.
Thank you
$7000 firm. 99.9% rust free. It's a blast to drive and I get thumbs up everywhere I go. I'll have to check to see exactly where I am on engine mileage, but I just passed the initial break in 500 miles. Running conventional oil with high zinc additive and I was OCD with the break in.
I bought...
Hi,
I am new here. I am trying to figure out what these wires and connectors are for, and what do I connect them to on a 1983 Toyota FJ40.
I am asking about the connector on my hand, not the one for the washer fluid pump. I removed the washer and the radiator tanks to take this picture...
