1977 Toyota FJ40

4.2L V6.... Powerful wench system... That seems stupid cheap, what am I missing. I mean it clearly has some issues and the seller has no clue, but still I feel like I'm missing something, otherwise I need to send @beno to check it out and then buy a ticket to Colorado

Anyone have an F1.5 or 73/74 parts for the 40, need shroud, air cleaner, exhaust and intake manifold, carb spacers, diffs, drive shafts

Why? That is the original air cleaner that should fit the carb you're buying.

I like the 73 pre emmisions cleaner better

 

[wngrog]

Noel. I have about 10 driveshafts here. You can have em all

Is the fan shroud screwed up? That's stock 74 as well.

Starting the long process of cleaning out the garage. Hard to believe I used to have two vehicle parked in here. Will be posting cruiser parts over the next month or so.

First item up, Vintage Air FJ40 AC Drier, line and condenser mounting brackets, all brand new. $50

 

[geologic]

Bodean it's been cut for the Vintage a/c install, I'm putting on the new Vintage a/c that doesn't require that, so looking for a good uncut piece

Looking for OEM clips that hold bottle jack handles under jump seats in 1975 FJ-40.

It's amazing what "Restored" means nowadays.

Rare 1978 FJ40 Toyota Land Cruiser

 

[jynx]

Yeah, and he really showed off is "copy and paste" skills in that add. Someone should make sure he knows those high dollar sales did not have "custom v8 conversions" or "automatic transmissions" either

That guy lives in the old country club neighborhood in Oxford

My doc I helped find his Commando lives near him.

I figured it was like this

So my power steering box rebuild was a failure. Spewing fluid.

What model and year-range of truck would this have come off of? Guess I need to hunt another one or have them try and find a new internal shaft for this one (assuming I can pinpoint what model it is).

Wasted $200

 

[offr0adlim0]

Who did the rebuild?

 

[ntsaint]

West Texas off-road. They called and said ‘there was some pitting on shaft and it might start to weep after a couple years’ but otherwise should be ok. Today was a power steering volcano.

If I knew what it came out of I might see if they could get a new internal shaft.

Have you called them? They have always had great customer service.

Was after 5. Calling them tomorrow and sending it back to them.

From what I know about pitting and seepage from my small engine work: there's no way a little pitting caused that. They effed that up and knew they effed it up. They hand you that story because they knew it was effed up when they sent it back to you

 

[Clutchee]

Just my .02 cents, get a refund and goto PSC and get whatever they offer! Top notch stuff!

Yeah, just passing along what they said. If they will fix it then no harm no foul.
