steering

the FSM calls for a 83 foot pound torque on the end cover. I'm at 65 right now and am concerned the bolts may break. They feel like they are stretching. Should I be concerned or go all the way to 83 ft-lb. and I may be missing it, but the book does not cover the torque spec for the top plate on...

Hey guys, here's a fun one... Yesterday while in my '93 4Runner I drove through a 6" deep puddle in a parking lot. The usual big splash occurred and then my steering instantly locked up. Meaning, I could barely force my steering wheel to turn in either direction. After 15 seconds or so of...

I've been searching on here, I know this has to have been discussed, but I can't find it. I have a 1991 fj80. I just got it and am fixing her up, her history is unkown, it was gifted to me when a friend found it in an abandoned warehouse he just bought. The steering wheel is not lined up and...

This started fairly recently, when I turn the wheel through the 10 O'clock position, I hear something akin to a power steering whine and then it goes away. If I turn it to the 10 O'Clock position and hold it there it doesn't whine. It's worse when it's cold and better when warm, but doesn't go...

I went out tonight a noticed a puddle under the truck towards the drivers side. It looks like it is coming from the Control Valve Housing on the steering rack. I checked the power steering reservoir and it was empty. I had not noticed any difference in driving. Anyone rebuild just the...

I am working on replacing my power steering hoses. I removed the skid plate, but the steering dampener is in the way. Do I need to take the dampener off to completely remove the plate? Any help?

If you have a cracked 72 and earlier steering wheel and want it restored, I'm on my 4th now my avitar is my second one. You pay shipping both ways and I'll have it done in two weeks. I would like to do two more and I think I will have it mastered. So if you want me to restore yours just get in...

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...

Hello all, as the title says, while driving at any speed my steering wheel feels very loose and my cruiser "floats" around in the lane. There's no confidence in the steering at all. What would be the first couple of things you guys would check for and replace? Running 37" MTR's, no spacers...

It seems like every half-turn left there is a winding type sound coming from the steering column. After it warms up, and if it's somewhat warm out, the sound goes away. I've also noticed the sound when I loose traction in the snow and my tires spin sometimes. Any ideas?

Sold Sold Sold Steering wheel in average condition. I don't have the center circle which is pictures as missing.

Feeler for now since everything is still on the truck but i ordered new steering for the 40 and the old set up needs a new home. Meant for a 40 with fj60 axles and power steering box (drag link is 1.5" shorter compared to a stock 60 link, relay is stock 60 length), would include all four stock...

Does anyone know if the steering column can be adjusted horizontally (left and right in relation to the dashboard)? I was sitting in traffic this morning and I noticed my steering column is shifted slightly towards the passenger side, leaving a larger gap between the column and dashboard on the...

I need an intact 60 steering column clamshell in brown. Even if you just have a good top part, that's what I need. It's my understanding the earlier clamshells are different from the later ones. Mine is a 4/85 production date. Let me know what you have. Thanks.

Hi all, this is my first post as a new owner.. I picked up this car 1 month ago and have been really enjoying my ownership so far. I do have an issue though and it is bothering me quite a bit. When i picked up the car i noticed that i was holding my steering wheel slightly left when driving...

Over typical paved/bumpy roads, do you get any feedback in your steering wheel? Do you feel the bumps in the road with small rotations in the wheel? They're not large enough to change the truck's direction, but enough that you feel it in your hands. Looking for feedback on what others...

Looking for early jumpseats (long with 2 bolt feet). Will be installing new covers so just need a set with minimal surface rust. Also need steering wheel in decent repairable shape. Mine is beyond repair.
