Looking for a single coarse spline birf for a friend. Will take a set if we have to. He grenaded one this weekend. I was going to give him one of mine but mine are fine spline. Anybody got one laying. Around let me know.
Sure do. Still connected to short & long side axles.
Lash has got me hooked up. Thanks bud. Just need to get them from Jackson to somewhere closer. Anybody going to Hattiesburg or Hammond this week?

Has anyone had experience with idle simply going out? (truck turns over and runs great, but at lights or sitting in driveway...warm with choke off) it will slowly just die.
I have replaced fuel filter, confirmed good flow into carb, but while sitting at idle over the past few days it will slowly just stop. if I catch it right before it totally shuts off I can prime the skinny peddle and it will come back but with out help it wont idle.
im going to do some testing with the idle screw on the aisin but am perplexed as to why it would happen so quickly with nothing having been done to the truck except cranked and driven? Esp when it turns over and rides just fine when on the peddle.

We were having a similar issue 2 weekends ago out on the trail although not exactly the same. We could crank it and it would not stay running but this was after we had been running trails for quite some time with no issues. It had also happened the day before. We let it sit for a few minutes and no problems again. However, on the second day we could not get it restarted. Turned out the fuel line had a slight kink in it right before the filter. Trace your fuel loaned to make sure you don't have any kinks.

thanks I will re-check them....it HAS to be carb IMO but it's just odd how it came on so fast with no warnings.

Bossman...the lines are all new and the pump appears to be in very good condition, looks to have a new gasket at the least.......do you recommend playing with the idle screw to see what effect it has or continuing to check lines, all though ive done that visually and broken them in any suspect places to check flow.

I got a the best running weber in the WORLD!!! Lol just saying it before someone else said it.
Ive got a brand new 3 core aluminum racing radiator for a fj40. It is currently installed in my 40 and has been there for a few weeks.
Why am I selling it? Well, when I ordered ii, it has a small pin-hole sized leak at the base of one of the cores. When I say pin-hole, I mean it was the diameter of a sewing needle. I dabbed some epoxy on it, and it stopped leaking. I called the company I ordered it from and complained that they sent me a defective part, and instead of them wanting me to ship on back to them, they just sent me a new one.
I am keeping the 2nd one, and selling the one with the repair.
It looks great, and the only modification that has to be done to get it to fit, is the inside corner of the toyota radiator support bracket has to be cut. Very easy.
$100
