My Jan 81 FJ40 Frame Off Resto Mod (1 Viewer)

You're looking at the wrong diagram! Here's the right one:

This is a link

That diagram shows the boot (36318-60020) and seal (90311-22005) for that shaft.

Splangy...you saved my ass.....AGAIN!

That is it. Looks like it could be quite difficult to install.

I will check those bolt dimensions when I get home.

It's a piece of cake to install. Removing the old rotten seal can be the difficult part. Ask me how I know! It actually shouldn't be that bad. A pair of needle nose pliers and a small screwdriver should do the trick.

Although, I still haven't gotten around to figuring out how the boot attaches to the shaft or seal. Anybody know?

Oh, I got the bolt dimensions I was asking about. It has to be m6.

Removed the shift lever and got the old boot off and looked in there with a flashlight. There is a wire circlip I think that holds the seal on. Im going to order the seal and boot from www.toyotapartszone.com

I will post up some pictures before I move on.

Good job on those seals man!

I actually just spent a rediculous amount on OEM seals...mine were all dry rotted and painted

Painted my transfer case after much cleaning. Only cosmetic, but looks good.

What did you use for the paint on your transfer case?

 

[KY Longhunter]

Duplicolor high temp engine paint from Advance Auto.

Sure thing, although it is not stock. It is a very close match.

I also have the original rear crossmember I chose to remove as PO apparently hooked tow strap to it and bent it all to hell.

I shouldn't have that problem with this one as it is about 1/4" thick.
