Finally some pictures!!! Thanks Brian for the help!
Hi
Joined this morning. I own a 9/88 FJ62, 166879 miles. This is my 4th wagon(all 62's) and 1 1998 UJZ100, and I have had 5 FJ40's!
Yesterday spent the day switching all fluids(except engine oil) to AMSOIL synthetic gear lubes, and ATF: Drove it today, what a difference in shifting! Not sure yet about switching to synthetic engine oil as my truck already has a few small engine leaks, and don't wish for more(bigger). Picked up this truck a few months back $3700 in Moab. Runs great, just has lots of dents, no real rust. I am leaving on a cross country trip next week in the FJ62.
So far no lift, 31" BFG's, KN air filter, AMSOIL fluids, Thule rack. Plan on OME lift, 33"s, and better rack. I live @ 9318 ft. above sea in Silverton Colorado. Drove over Ophir Pass this morning to break in the new fluids/check for leaks; nice none!
I am looking for a fender for the front r-side(inner as well).
Living so high elevation, the truck still seems to get 13-15 mpg, and pulls good up the passes here. Can't wait for the snow to fly, and wheel the truck skiing everyday this winter. I am retired military, now surfer, mountain biker, ice climber. Spent about 4 years without any FJ's, and it drove me nuts! Made the mistake of trading for Defender 90; never again... Just wanted to introduce myself and truck. I am posting photos of ALL of my Toyota's on my web page, take a look= //web.mac.com/mikepierson/iWeb/Mik...l]173149[/ATTACH][ATTACH=full]173150[/ATTACH]
