    Front door differences - question

    By diesellibrarian

    Hi everyone. I’ve done a search and gathered some info, but would like some help/clarification. Hoping someone here knows the answers! My truck is a ‘77 (not sure about production month, will get that info if helpful). It came with a set of non-matching “rounded” window frame front doors, and a set of matching “square corner” front doors with the vent window. Based on my research, the FJ55 transitioned to the rounded door frame sometime during the 77 model year. The rounded doors don’t... Read more

    Popping sound from front end.

    By TonyTheTiger57

    I have a popping sound that has gotten worse in the front end that is mainly on the passengers side. I have an anti lift kit installed. Eibach swaybars. New HFP struts. And Whiteline adjustable ball joints. The noise happens as soon as I drive in a forward or reverse position. The sound will happen as I jack up the car. I’m conflicted if it’s the CV shaft or control arm bushings. It sounds like threaded rod slipping through a metal hole. I don’t hear it during a drive or while hitting a...

    Thermostat Installation

    By AYM707

    I've got a Saudi FJ40. Moved to Canada a few years back and I finally decided to put the thermostat back in. Before this, I never had a problem with engine temperature. But generally dont drive it in the winter. Purchased the thermostat The on the left is rated for ~73C and I believe that is the original type. The one on the right is rated for 82C and has the jiggly valve so opted to install that one. Installed it in this orientation with the jiggly valve at 12 o'clock... Read more

    Early door handle thumb-button fix...

    By Pighead

    I stole this idea from the "Yukon Jack" thread posted by @diesellibrarian . I saw the pic and said "Aha! That's so crazy that it just might work!" diesellibrarian said: View attachment 4231022 Click to expand... Seems that the PO had the same problem I was having. Problem is the metal tab that the thumb-button pushes against is thin and flimsy and bends away so that the thumb-button no longer works. You can see that Toyota added a threaded bit to end of the thumb-button rod on the later handles to address the problem. In... Read more

    Front wipers not returning to rest position

    By Teeter

    I'm having this issue with my 2001 where my wipers are not returning to the rest position, they just stop wherever they happen to be when I switch off the wipers. It doesn't seem to matter if I switch off directly from intermittent or from the slow/high speed (which sort of passes through intermittent anyways, so not sure if that matters). The problem seemed to happen overnight, wasn't gradual. The wipers seem to operate normally otherwise. FWIW, I recently installed a new receiver which I... Read more
