I’ve been having issues with my trans oil overheating... I bought a cooler, but have been putting off the install.
My 62 is my everyday driver, and I have no issues running around town. But as soon as I hit the interstate, 30 minutes in my trans oil light comes on. Clocked 70mph, while doing under 65 on the odometer... I bought the truck with a set of 16” fuel vectors with 32x10.5s (after doing some reading, this is probably one of the main issues).
After having it diagnosed, looks like I’ll be replacing my torque converter... down sizing to 15” steelies (black FJ40 style w/chrome center caps), with BFG AT 30x9.5s - which I really hope don’t look punny after I install my OME medium load kit (which they say is 1.25” - 2”)...
I know this is something discussed quite often with 62s... but if anyone has suggestions, they would be greatly appreciated.
If anyone has pictures of BFG 30x9.5s on their rig, would love to see how that looks.
*also: if anyone is looking for a set of (5) original FJ62 15” wheels, or a set of (4) 16” fuel vectors... let me know.
...smh - $..$..$....
