Posted an intro to my snazzy new 1971 FJ40 just this morning. She's in what seems to be very serviceable shape and I'm pretty dang excited to have her.
What I could use some help on is that she seems to be stuck in Low gearing. The knob to switch from 2wd to 4wd only works in one of two positions. The High Gear position seems the equivalent of neutral (no gears engaged at all). She's a good and smooth ride, but I'm close to 5k RPM by the time I'm at 40mph. Checked and wheels appear unlocked.
And yes, I'm a total newb here, but... I had two longtime FJ amigos look at her with me last night, and they were similarly stumped.
Thanks in advance!
