My paint is slowly but surely fading away. The clear has deteriorated so badly on the hood I can wipe it off with my hand. I still have a paint layer underneath that is holding up well but I am looking for a long term cheap solution.
Here are the options so far:
1) Monstaliner - they offer a...
My truck is a '67 model and I've always wondered what the story was on the heater or lack thereof. I've got what appears to be an aftermarket unit that the PO installed. It has the Nippondenso logo and part number stamped on the side but I can't find any info. I'm wondering if my truck came from...
Was just wondering what people where using to remove their hardtops, other than a couple of buddies and some beers? I have done the buddies and beers thing but now that I have a dedicated section in my garage for my cruiser, and with summer coming up, I want a way that I can remove and store my...
I'm not really sure this is a "tech" question, but I didn't know where else to post this. I recently moved from Las Vegas, where I had two huge garages, to San Diego, where my garage is much smaller and taken up entirely by my business. So now my 40, which was a desert truck for as long as I...
I'm getting ready to install an FJ60 carb cooling fan in my '76 FJ40. I was going to keep it simple and operate it manually using a switch on the dash. I'm thinking it would look better to use an OEM or OEM style pull switch instead of a toggle switch. Any ideas?
I really like the VPR front bumper for the 200. But mine is a 2014, the fitment is up to 2010. What are the other options you guys are liking? Anything that you guys would recommend? I have been through the forums, but wanted to ask directly if anyone has an opinion. Also, the ARB rear...
Anybody here ever buy one of the cheap chinese knockoff snorkels like the one listed below? I know you get what you pay for, but $400, or in fact, anything over $200 for an ABS plastic pipe seems like too much for what it is. Before you say it, I saw the micro comparison on the safari snorkel...

Gent,
I'll be looking at possibly purchasing a 77 BJ40 diesel that has a factory heater delete. Probably because it was a Central America vehicle.
I have not inspected the vehicle yet and was wondering if the B engine has any provisions for heater hoses so I can add an aftermarket heater. I...
Hey all... I am currently hunting for a roof rack for my LX. I have been in contact with a bunch of the rack manufacturers and none of them can give me a definitive answer if their 200 series roof racks will work on the LX. Has anyone installed one on their LX, and if so which one? Thanks all...
Hey all,
so on my last couple of wheeling trips, my rear locker has been less than enthusiastic about engaging and disengaging. On the last trip, it would engage at all. not even with some "encouragement" from some hammer taps. well, I figured it needed a rebuild so I took off the rock guard...
picked up a 75 & a 74. The 75 is a cancer free SW truck built in December of 75. It has surface rust all over the skin. Needs new quarters and fenders (up to 1/2" Bondo). PO sold the axels and steering box. It has power breaks, had front disk (according to PO) and has the short rear doors. No...
I would like to install a header on my 2F FJ4x with unknown power steering conversion. A previous owner installed power steering, it appears to be Toyota parts. The Power steering pump is on the upper passenger side of the engine, so not in the way of the header. The steering box is above the...
Alright, looking to get off the SR5 wheels wrapped in 33s and looking for 16" options. Been looking on ebay for Toyota 6x5.5 wheels and found a decent set for a '96-02 4-Runner although I am wondering if these are gonna be an issue.
1. After some reading on a Tacoma board they are saying the...
I am looking for what 5 speed and adapter to use when swapping a 1uzfe lexus v8 into a fj40 with a 5 speed. I have looked for the past couple days. I know that I can use a w series trans out of a mini truck, but I will be using fj62 axles and need the LC case. I was thinking a h55 or a h151...
Hey All,
I tried searching for a list of roof racks for the LX470, but I couldn't find what I was looking for. I'd be great to create a simple list with:
Name of the roof rack
Weight
Load capacity (lbs)
Wind noise (1 - 10, 10 being load)
Size (height, length, width)
And... why you think it's the...
