Coolant/heater/oil cooler line diagram

[PabloCruise]

lol. I am neither a kid nor a jeep guy but I can understand the sentiment… I have owned the fj 40 for 25 years and am just now building it. It’s weird that the 1974 fj55 did not come with an oil
Cooler as mine certainly has one. The rest of the truck was completely original prior to totaling.
What do I have to do now to lose the stigma as an outsider and untarnished my name? or is it even possible?

Don't worry, we still love the 55 roots you are putting in your 40.
What totaled out your 55?

Then what do you call this? From 1977.

No stigma associated to you.
Pretty ironic that some old codger that very rarely ever comes down here or participates in any of the ongoing threads, wants to chime in on a new thread from a new guy, give wrong information, and then proceed to chastise while simultaneously bearing a sig that basically reads, IDGAF. Funny!

Shocking Land Cruiser discovery!

FWIW, my best guess is that the oil coolers on a '77, for example, were "California Spec", based on the parts diagrams that I'm looking at. Also pretty certain there were no oil coolers on '74 NA FJ55s. My '77 FJ55 does not have an oil cooler.

Good to see your name in here @Mark W

I've been back on mud more lately. Not specifically in the Iron Pig forum. But not specifically not in it either.

Drop in any time friend!
I still miss your writing.
I know that you know, but your 60 series PS article was sucked me into the Land Cruiser Life...

I look back on a lot of the early articles that I wrote and realize all sorts of little things that could have been done different/better. But considering how much was not being commonly done then, it does not bother me too much.

I occasionally get the urge to sit down and put more words on the page. But I usually wind up picking up a wrench or hitting the trail instead.

Sadly I no longer have any Pigs on the road or the trail. I do actually still have the (remains of) the one the brought me to Cruisers in the first place. But any time thoughts of resurrecting it come to mind, they are quickly following by more realistic thoughts of the cost to benefit ratio of making that happen, and the FJ40 and FZJ80 projects that I have waiting that will yield much better results for the time and money spent.

Well at least do us the honors of a picture of that Pig!
