FJ25 Chat Thread

FJ25 steering wheel question.

My U.S. Fj25’s all have a spline shaft columns. I have seen early steering wheels from different markets like Australia that have a keyway column. Is the U.S. the only market to get the spline shaft steering column?

Is there a pic around of that keyway column?

Well… had acorns, little PSA here, never loan the @HENDOG your acorns hubcaps. He texted me this morning to let me know he put a minor dent in one of them

Can't blame him completely. Looks like it was thin from rust already.

I picked a set of early hub caps cheap.

Did a little work to them.

This was a long time ago when I still had a job.
Not real easy to pick out without a close inspection.

While not as cheap as some here my best deal is a toss up between my $1k 73 FJ40 FST and $2,500 76 FJ40 full time 4WD proto type with 4500 miles.


Anyone know what happened to Phil? Believe the last time I had contact was 2013.

See! We are all still lurking here, just waiting for something to talk about I still think Mud is by far the best source of knowledge for the older cruisers. I can’t get myself into social media, it all just feels so impersonal to me. It’s possible I’m wrong. I really do like and appreciate this mud community though. Thanks for reviving the thread @JohnnyC

@FJnotCJ yeah I wonder what’s happening with Phil … and Gene @Land Cruiser Junky haven’t heard from in a while …. Mike as well @foxfab

Last I heard anything from gene and Phil that I remember was when the 25 bumper was made

If only it were this easy to jumpstart the economy again! Business has been very slow for me lately.

@JohnnyC ...I think this crowd has a very limited Chat capacity, they'll all be back in a few more years.
