1985 FJ60 USA Spec. Non-Illuminated Choke cable assy Kit :
- This was one of the More Challenging Choke cable Jobs i have had in a while
- I was able to source the Main Choke cable assy new with little effort
- But the Knob & Retainer ring nut proved to be a challenge
- I got the inner-web & started to Hunt , I found myself on Ebay.com/Costa-Rica
- i quickly found a Knob and Buy It Now , shipping took about a week , oddly enough it is a USAv spec. knob with the Text Word CHOKE on it
- i started calling ALL the usual and not so Usual USA Land Cruiser parts Vendors for the trim ring nut , i got Lucky with one , they had several
NOS ones , so i bought all they had in-stock for future jobs
