Builds 1997 FZJ75 Pickup (5 Viewers)

[HeavyD]

Steering was a little loose, so I swapped out the tie rod ends and the sway bar bushings. Made a noticeable improvement. Went ahead and painted them before installation.

Finally got around to flushing the cooling system and replacing all the hoses.

Hose clamps for these are:
50mm P/N 96111-10500
58mm P/N 96111-10580

 

[HeavyD]

I also had to replace the Heater (Water) Valve Assembly and hoses.

Heater Valve P/N 87240-60010
Heater Valve Hose P/N 87245-60290
Hose Clamps P/N 96112-10250

The hose from the Heater Valve to the engine block is NLA, it's marked with a blue arrow. So I took my old one to the local auto parts store and found one that would work. Sorry I don't have that part number.

 

[HeavyD]

Also replaced the Heater Pipe. I had some hose left over from the hose I got for the Heater Valve in the post above, so I was able to use it from the Heater Pipe to the firewall.

 

[HeavyD]

PCV Valve P/N 12204-35040
PCV Grommet P/N 90480-18001

Just FYI, you might want to keep an eye on the heater core now that you've replaced the valve etc. - these are practically never used in the GCC and almost always leak once used, often catastrophically. In fact, you might simply want to go ahead and purchase a new core and replace it as a preventative measure.

Thanks for the tip! I'll try to get one asap.

@HeavyD - nice assortment of parts numbers and pictures. They are great visual and parts catalogue helpers.

Thanks @LDRF. I'm not doing anything out of the ordinary on this truck, so I thought I could at least post some part numbers to save some search time for others. Plus everyone likes pics!

Couldn't decide if I liked or hated the back up alarm. But it annoyed me too much, so it's off. Were these factory installed on these trucks? I noticed it was a Denso brand (well Nippondenso before they shortened the name).

That’s interesting…..I have the same truck, but don’t have that feature. Maybe it was removed

 

[HeavyD]

It was bolted to the frame behind the rear bumper and plugged into the wiring harness. It appeared to be a factory install?

Don’t know if it’s factory or port but it’s required in KSA for commercial vehicles and a pickup is, or at least was, considered commercial. That’s also why you have to be a Saudi national or a Saudi registered company to own a pickup.

Edit: Don’t see it on the parts diagram so guessing port. FWIW, I left mine just for the novelty of it.

The backup alarm you see is a factory install. Pickups have them stock

Ha, thanks @OGBeno, if I miss it I know where to get a new one

My windshield had some pretty deep scratches from living in the desert. So, I was happy to find you can still order the windshield and front and back weatherstripping at US dealerships.

 

[HeavyD]

My windshield had chrome trim on the weatherstrip, but I believe that's NLA. I'm fine without the chrome, I'm trying to de-bling it a little anyway.

 

[HeavyD]

Speaking of de-blinging, I swapped out the front turn lamp assemblies from the original chrome to black.
