I’m starting to wonder if that rig has an interior since you won’t post pics... . Is it really a diesel? The world may never know...

Suffix E0 is called "Sepia". Interestingly, Lexus uses it on the 2010 and up GX460 interior.

Beautiful truck! Is the diesel 12-volt or 24-volt electrical system?

24 Volt

The BJ75 has been pretty trouble free, so I haven’t had much to report. I only drive the truck maybe once or twice a week.

The clutch release cylinder was weeping, and I also noticed that the brake pedal sinks a little, which to me indicates that the master cylinder needs rebuilding. So I bought the OE parts from FJ Parts and here they are:

I am trying to decide whether to order the soft line that runs from the release cylinder to the hard line. It doesn’t look cracked or anything, but maybe it is also tired and gross on the inside from years of the same brake fluid. What do you guys think? Worth it to replace it?

Installed a new brake master cylinder, clutch master cylinder, and clutch release cylinder.

Do I spy a Hazet ratchet and Wera screwdrivers? Very nice tools. Made in Germany, I believe. How do you like them?

Did you have a few electrical problems with it?

Did you have a few electrical problems with it?

I *had* many unusual, small electrical problems, but delightfully (and so satisfyingly), I found the culprit to them all this spring. After a few years, I was able to answer myself here: My BJ75 is destroying low side batteries - https://forum.ih8mud.com/threads/my-bj75-is-destroying-low-side-batteries.1114358/post-13743348
