rebuild

What colour was the F painted from factory? 🍻

I have a '94 LC with 253k miles. I've done some mods over the years (ARB front bumper, 3.5 OME lift) It's been a great truck that I've owned for 11 years with no major problems, and has been my father's daily driver for the last 5 years or so. I got the dreaded phone call last week that it was...

I'm a "Super Newbie" to the site. So, I apologize for any wrong ways I go about asking questions. I have my first rough FJ40 that I want to tear down and redo over time. I'm extremely excited but to be honest I'm a greenhorn at mechanics. Is there any master tool list someone has put together...

Hey y'all. So, I put off replacing my BEB's for too long, and it bit me in the butt today. I was 20 miles from home and started hearing a strange ticking sound. I limped it to my buddies shop, but it was too late. I pulled the oil pan and found #6 rod bearings had spun, and the crankshaft...

Earlier this year, I picked up a A9334 Harrop Elocker for $200, which had suffered a mechanical failure. It had been used in the rear of a Hilux, and came still fitted in the diff centre. My plan was to rebuild it and fit it to the front of my 80, which uses the same locker. The problem was an...

Hello gents, In resurrecting this FJ60 from storage of a friend in a barn for 11 years. Overall its great, but NOT definitely a daily driver yet. Some background. It drove great in the morning, it drove great in the afternoon. It did not drive great in the morning and the afternoon! So I'm...

Ok, we need to either rebuild the Clutch Master & Slave Cylinder or buy a new one - any recommendations? - I don't know if they make a rebuild kit for the slave cylinder. - Is it better to buy new, if so, where do you recommend. It is funny, I was on CR and the Clutch MC for a '75-80 is $45...

Howdy, I'm going to rebuild my 2F out of a 86 FJ60 and noticed it had one replacement rod in it. It was lighter in color and when I weighted it, it was about 20g less than the orginal ones. The orginal ones were about 1070g and the single lighter one was 1050g. So looking for a single rod...

Need some help. I decided to replace the Weber that was on my 86 FJ60 with a Jim C rebuild. Luckily I had all the linkage and choke cable still. I made sure to double check the desmog doc to make sure there is nothing missing before putting the OEM on. Unfortunately, what once was a...

Hey fellow Mudders, Wanted to get some advice and direction for my FJ40 situation. Last Friday we trailered my cruiser out to NE Oregon to get married. Cruised around Joseph/ Enterprise just fine the night before. Day of, ladies took my red truck (to keep their hair nice) and the dudes rode...

So this has me stumped. I rebuilt the drum brakes on my 60 about three weeks ago. I did one side at a time so that I could use the other side as a cheat sheet and not misplace stuff. I took the drums off at Solid Axle Summit and had a bunch of knowledgeable cruiser heads verify that I did the...

I have an FJ62 88, 200k miles, body in great shape, but recent rebuild didn’t go well. I want to overhaul to make is a daily driver with highway speed, something to last for the next 20+ years. The Mosley high power rebuild seems ideal, but they are booked up...

Well, during the rebuild of my rear calipers, we found out the piston had some pretty good wear so we decided to replace it. I’m getting a little tight on cash, so I opted to use raybestos pistons instead of oem.. the new one is 1/2 mm longer Grove is 1 1/2 mm closer to the butt end 1/2 mm...

I have a nearly all-original 1979 FJ40 that I want to keep as close to OEM as possible. It still has the original shocks and springs. What shocks would you recommend if I want to keep it as close to OEM as possible? Also, should I rebuild or replace the springs? If I should rebuild the...

Hi im new to owning a land cruiser and am wondering where the best place to buy a torque converter would be. My transmission will not engage gears when put into drive, only has reverse, thinking about trying to do a rebuild on the transmission or throwing in my spare 440 i found, but im going to...

Looking to rebuild my transmission soon. After 350xxx km it feels like it’s getting weak(2nd gear slight flare, 3-2 mis shift, OD manual engagement flare). I’ve upgraded the VB, replaced the solenoids, and TC about 50xxx km ago. Oem frictions from PS are getting harder to get and I’m wondering...
