[Moe R]

Had a 2.25 in straight pipe installed.

 

[my69FJ]

Replaced the aftermarket steering wheel with a stock 1969 steering wheel. Now I just need the parts to make the horn button functional. Replaced the 1.75" lift, greasable, anti-inversion tri-shackle with the stock pieces. Stock Rules!! On a related note the aftermarket shackles are for sale.

 

[Eshu Elegua]

Install a Yupiteru Multi-band receiver-all mode,200 mem channels

 

[bikersmurf]

Finished hatch install into my 1981 hardtop.

 

[DrUnit]

Put a new lock on the ambulance door. When I was reinstalling the handle, the bolt end broke. Another 29-year-old piece of useless metal gone. Promptly ordered a new handle.

 

[Assassin]

filled it up with 2.59 cent per gallon gas. Drove it last couple days ........75 degs........what a nice time of the year to drive your fj40..........with no top

Fixed the Weber vacuum leak

My weber 38/38 has had a vacuum leak (carb to base, base to riser, riser to manifold) since I got the beast a couple of months ago. I installed new gaskets from JTO, and it STILL leaked. So, I saidit, and bough a roll of make-it-yourself gasket, cut my own gaskets, and slapped them on - NO MORE VACUUM leaks from the carb... now I just need to retune the carb...

Put the hard top and doors back on

 

[DSRTRDR]

I loaded all my parts boxes into it for wheeling tomorrow

when I was done, I noticed that I had forgotten the axle shafts I was too lazy to take the three boxes out that usually sit on top of them - I am just not gonna break an axle tomorrow ;p

 

[DenCo40]

Installed my new roundeyes and finished up my cs 130 alternator. Huge difference!!

 

[Moe R]

Insta Lube

Installed an insta lube system. Hooked it up to a toggle swtich so I could turn it on and off manually.

 

[myquestoyota]

Fixed the fuel gauge with a lot of help from fellow MUDders. After several installs and replacements I think it was the ground. At any rate it works and the timing couldn't have been better, it was almost empty. Installed a CD player where the PO installed cassete was.

 

[hudyhue]

Made a santas sliegh and 4 deer, bolted it to the 40 for Xmas parade posting pics tomarrow....

 

[flaa1a]

I have had HUGE problems with my lights too. But making a ground wire from the turn signal bucket to the LC made a huge difference, read this thread......

[Southeast Overland]

Pulled the Pig into the garage for a front axle cut-n-turn and rebuild. Also going to replace the oil pan to fix a leak and fix a few leaks at the t-case and speedo housing.

 

[Gus]

I fabbed and welded a new bib support(that reinforcement piece that's spot welded to the inside bottom of the bib)then dropped the whole thing off at the powder coater.

 

[RichiT]

Rebuilt two wheel cylinders, Bleed the brakes, charged the battery and drove it for the first time in about a month...

 

[madinal]

Discovered my altenator wasn't getting excited so I ran a wire from a switched fuse to excite it. Drained and filled my coolant. Fixed a break in my taillight wire. Will start driving it to work on Monday

 

[Rockets2000]

Adjusted the brakes, tightened up a bunch of stuff, set the timing and mixture so I wouldn't pass out in the garage, and got the fuel gauge working. Also, my center arm kit and drag link came in today from MAF. It was a good day!
