Is there anyone out there that has done EPS on an early fj40 column? I am wanting to procure a kit to do this on my 1972 fj40 but the only write ups I have seen have been on the later columns and am wondering if it is possible or not to get this done on an earlier column? Any links to threads or...

I know the LX and LC call for Dexron but would Lucas Oil PSF (not the stop leak) really harm the system? It says it's compatible with all systems...Hmmm I wonder. I went to change mine and it was black so I took some out of the resevoir with a pump and refilled with Lucas Oil PSF. Drove around a...

I got this gearbox as a throw in when I bought my FJ40. The previous owner bought it to install on the 40 but never got around to it. Can anyone with more knowledge than me let me know if this is the right gearbox for a fj40?

I have a leak in the high pressure power steering line on my 1991 FJ80. I have it disconnected from the pump and the power steering box and I removed the three brackets holding it to frame. The skid plate is out. I'm stuck trying to pull the line out. It looks like it needs to pivot down...

My 2001 diesel Land Cruiser is down here in Honduras where the roads are very rough. A while back, the power steering became very sluggish. Sometimes it's very difficult to make a sharp turn, and it doesn't return to center easily. Belt is good and no noise for it My local mechanic suggested...

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...

After 268,000 miles our FJ60 still runs like a champ and since we became the proud owners the number of leaks has decreased down to a precious few! But recently I found the telltale signs of leaking red ATF on the floor under the drivers side. A quick look showed no issues with the hose seals...

Hello 62 owners, I have a problem that I have been unable to diagnose and unable to find by searching existing threads. A few weeks back I heard what sounded like the bearing in my power steering pump going bad so I replaced the unit and my low pressure lines (cracked) and flushed the system...

Hey guys, I've got a bit of an issue. I've got a 1996 Land Cruiser, and recently the power steering has started leaking. This is the 2nd or 3rd time it's happened and the mechanic said last time that he doesn't know if he'll be able to weld it again. We're taking it in tomorrow to see. Well...

Is there a way I could get a hold of a power steering pump for my FJ60 1983 that doesn't cost $500!? (new or used) I rebuilt mine in a company in Colorado but the pump just doesn't worked. Thank you

About a month ago I was driving aggressively on a dirt road. I went through a turn pretty sharp and had a little more traction through the turn than I expected. When I cam out of it my steering was very stiff and did not feel right at all. Now when driving at low rpm's (below 1000) my power...

I apologize if this has been discussed, but I searched for power steering issues and didn't see exactly my problem... Basically, it seems like my power steering works off and on. Sometimes it will work with the truck parked and other times the steering wheel pulsates and it feels like there is...

I have a leak from the power steering reservoir which i've just been topping off for quite a while.. any kind of extended uphill driving seems to make the power steering louder and it tends to leak a little more. first off, exactly what should i be using in the power steering res? secondly, does...

Hello everyone. New on here but have been browsing the forum since I picked up my 1995 FZJ80 about 5 years ago. More so in the last year or so, as it seems like it has just been one thing after the next with this thing. I don't know much about this stuff but whenever my mechanic tells me...

Hello All. I have a 1985 FJ60 with 153k miles on it. I've owned it for six years and it's been a great truck for me. I noticed a power steering fluid leak that started as a trickle but progressed to the point of my taking the truck to get looked at by my local mechanic. He says that my power...
