    Time to have the engine re-built or replaced.

    My 69 FJ40 (w/'74 engine) is becoming more difficult to keep running (runs rough - even after tuning), slowly boggs down at idle, puffs blue smoke and dies). I guess it is time to have the engine rebuilt or replaced. I live in Jacksonville Florida. Anyone have any experience with a shop near...

    Water running sound behind dashboard

    Hey all! I just picked up my first FJ80! It has a sound when accelerating above 2000 RPM and at an incline like water is running behind the dashboard (sounds like it's behind the radio or passenger side). The A/C doesn't work so I'm thinking the drain tube is blocked? Not sure where to go...

    How much toe in are you running

    I am wondering how much toe in the folks on here are running. I have 315's and 75mm lift. The truck seems to be tracking straight, but it follows the road readily. I am going to check my settings tomorrow with the technique @Tools R Us describes in the FAQ. I thought while I'm in there if the...

    Anyone Running BFG KM2 Mud Terrains? Feedback

    I am seriously considering some 35x12.5r18 (34.8x12.5) or 285/70R18 (33.7x11.5) BFG KM2 and I am just looking for some feedback. I currently run KO2 305/65/18, but I am making the switch to a Mud terrain. KM2 is not my favorite looking Mud tire, but I am a fan of BFG and white letters out. I...

    Running hot but not over heating

    I'm in the process of restoring a 91 land cruiser. For some reason when I start the truck the temp. gauge got straight to over heating. The truck doesn't over heat though. I noticed the temp sensor was disconnected. I replaced it with a new one and it still says it is running hot as soon as I...

    LX Puddle/Courtesy Lights LED strip upgrade

    Finished pictures first! I put sliders on my ’01 LX a couple of months ago and mourned the loss of my running board puddle lights (aka courtesy lights). I found a couple of threads detailing replacements and was inspired by the LED strip that @bhicks used. I didn’t want to cut the wire...

    Running cooler thermostat than OEM

    I am running a brand new oem thermostat but my cruiser has been running pretty hot lately. I know the OEM is 180 degrees but anyone know where I can find an aftermarket that works at 170? I realize it could be something else but I do want to start with the thermostat.

    Thoughts on running rear third as a front.

    I have a lot invested into the FJ60 front end on my FJ40 and I dont really want to change it out to the 80 front, even if it would net me a high pinion third. I've just recently centered a 80 elocker rear end and put it in the 40 and it's great! So, I've heard someone say that you can run a rear...
