This weekend I hope to get time to drop my fuel take to clean it out. (hasn't ran in 13 years)
I saw a few youtube videos of people using carb cleaner to clean out the fuel lines. Is that what the Mud community suggests on the FJ60's and where should I start? I was guessin at where the fuel...
I was looking at a chart on Fox shocks and something dawned on me. But please correct me if i am wrong. On full compression the suspension should hit bump stops first, right? I would think that a tire rubbing or a coil spring binding would be bad right? So if running factory bump stops and...
So i notice the sides on my 42 seems to flare out down in the rocker area. No clue if this is normal or not. Ive never seen another cruiser to compare this to. I think i recall my 67 looking the same way.
My Y pipe has bit the dust, as well as showing symptoms of bad cats. I ordered The Magnaflow 23120 and the matching second cat and I'm hoping to install them later this week.
Here's my question: What bolts do I need for the cats? Does the kit come with the ones that I need? Can I cut the heads...
I just got my winch in the other day and immediately clocked it for install in an arb bumper. After I was done I noticed about 1/8" of side to side movement on the spool. Could be 3/16. Is this normal? Everything went together how it should. I didn't pay attention before I started...
So, I've really been focused on 2006-2007 LCs because 230 (or 235) hp vs 275 hp is about a 20% boost. That's pretty significant. But is also VERY limiting in terms of available vehicles during my searching, and most will have other "features" I'd rather not have (NAV and AHC). So, is it possible...
I have already replaced all of my speakers and subwoofer with suggestions from the forum and they work great. However, the sub being the size of a biscuit leaves it a little lacking to say the least.
I found an old sub box with 2 10 inch subs that I had sitting around and I just had them...
Objective: I would like to install a 2"-3" Shackle Lift on my Pig.
I have a bone stock FJ55 Survivor and I'd like to keep it relatively stock (within reason)....
I installed 33x10.50s this week which fit great for "street use" but I'd like to do a shackle lift so there won't be issues with the...
i may be going crazy but ......

Hey there Mud,
I have a 1985 fj60 I'm slowly getting back on the road.
Short story is... it was parked in a garage 13 years ago or so shortly after having the engine rebuilt.
There it sat ever since. Doing plugs, wires, carb rebuild by Mark, new filters and fluids.
Drained the fuel tank and the...
My son and I are in the throws of installing his rebuilt engine. We are trying the EGR and Pair delete.
He now has a question. After reading all the post and threads we have hit a wall.
We have pulled everything from under the intake manifold. Looking at the fuel pressure regulator, there is a...
Does anyone have a good picture of the center wiper/weatherstripping piece for the side cargo slider windows? Looking to determine if the one used in the 80 series is similar to that of the 60/70 series. Thanks for any help.
I have an opportunity to purchase a 1983 FJ60 with original 147K. The truck has been used as a farm truck for many years and stored indoors. It is owned by a Toyota mechanic who has put a new clutch, new suspension parts, tires and brakes. Mechanically, it is VERY SOLID. No rust on the frame...
Slowly but surly ticking things off my list.
06 LX. Atlanta has had a pretty good amount of rain. I have noticed water in both the driver and passenger floor areas. Not a ton but enough that it pooled on my Weathertechs and dampened the carpet underneath the mats. On one occasion, I noticed the...
I'm in the middle of my desmog and after many searches I decided to start a new thread.
Can I remove the driver's side bolt on the thermostat housing to remove the metal spaghetti piping without comprising the gasket/ leaking coolant fluid? I have a lot of projects going on at once, and I'd...
I have an 03 Lx470. I wanted to have a proper recovery point because once in a while I do take her offroad on some trails. So I purchased this guy:
Then I realized you can't fit 3/4" d ring/shackles in those loops. So next I was thinking of purchasing this guy:
Please note: This has...
V8 with an edelbrock carb, PO didn't need to pass emissions but I do. TN 1975 and older are required. I'm close, 7.5 reading on CO (5.0 is allowed). I set my floats, checked my fuel pressure, and have my mixture screws as low and even as possible. New clean air filter 14x3.
Now, my dizzy has...
Some of you may have seen my earlier thread. I inherited my Dad's FJ40 when he passed away a couple of months ago.
It has had the same tank of fuel in it since before he got sick in October. When he was sick and in the hospital he had me drive it around a bit but it's only been driven maybe 30...
