I'm interested in buying a cap and plug, and the EGR blockoff plate set from you. Just got an 84 fj60, and I'm in the process of de-smogging it. Also, I'm interested in a pulley if you have one, but I noticed the post says you don't have any. Any chance there'll be one ready soon? You can message me back here or email me at tannertipping@gmail.com

Thanks,

Jim,
PP sent for idler pulley, cap and plug set, and EGR blockoff for 1979 FJ40 with powersteering. Also, sending you a distributor for a recurve.

Thanks,
Chad
 
Yes Tanner, FJ60 Idler pulleys are built & ready to ship. PP can be sent to my 'mud ID at gmail.com

Thanks for the payment Chad. The smaller 1/79-7/80 idler is built on an as-needed basis. I'll write a work order and get going on making one for you.
 
Edit 9/22/14: All desmog parts are in stock & ready to ship.

Some desmog parts are in stock and ready for shipment. Note that actually removing federally mandated smog equipment from a street legal vehicle is against the law. These components will allow the use of later model engine and steering parts in earlier Land Cruisers.

First is the v.3.3 AIR pump idler pulley for 81-87 2F. The bracket is made of computer cut 1/4" plate and DOM tubing. The bracket is welded together but is designed so the welds are all redundant, bolts are also holding it together when assembled. The pulley wheel is made in USA and fits wide (Cruiser) belts. Assembly drops into stock lower pivot bracket, uses stock upper tension bracket and keeps stock belt size for easy replacements. Pulley wheel is a standard industrial part that can be easily replaced from a motion supply house or lawnmower store.

The tension drawbolt will still work with the lockbolt, but I don't recommend actually using the drawbolt to tension the pulley. The drawbolt is there to assist in moving the awkward air pump and fighting the stiff air hoses. Reasonable belt tension (it doesn't need much) can be achieved by simply yanking out on the pulley by hand, then tightening the lockbolt & pivot. Once a moderately snug belt is set, then the draw bolt can be slipped onto the lockbolt and tightened up, to insure the idler doesn't move in.

This piece is necessary on a Cruiser using a stock 81-87 PS pump. The PS pump picks the alternator belt up off the fan, leaving only the air pump to tension the fan belt. If the vehicle doesn't have an air pump, then this idler can be used to restore the needed fan belt tension function.

Price is $110, plus $5 PriorityMail shipping. PayPal can be sent to fj40jim a t gmail do t com.

If purchasing more than one component (see post below for others), shipping is still $5 for the total order. All 3 will just fit in a small flat rate box.
Hey Jim, my 77 2F has Saginaw PS and the factory smog pump, will this idler pulley work OK when i remove the smog pump?

thanks,
Faron
 
No, the 75-78 smog pump is much smaller than the 81-87 pump, so the idler pulley bracket would need to be smaller.

On most 75-80 engines, the AP can just be removed, no other changes necessary.
 
It is good practice to put pipe sealant on threads going into liquid (like the thermostat housing).

There is no need for chemicals on the plugs in the top of the exhaust ports. The EGT on a long interstate grade will vaporize any chemical additive. They don't leak, so no need of sealant, and there is no reason to remove them, so no need for anti-seez.
