    80 Series Brake Issue - Looking for Advice

    By brainhax

    Need some advice from the 80 Series gurus. When driving around 40-60 km/h and I hit the brakes hard, the vehicle doesn't stop as it should. The brake pedal goes almost all the way to the floor and I can still feel the Cruiser moving. However, if I pick up the speed and break hard on an empty road few times (2-3 times), 4th time onwards, the brake feels much much better. A bit of background: During a recent brake bleed, we accidentally let the reservoir run dry for a few... Read more

    FJ62 EGR Temp Sensor Connector

    By GRM

    Hoping for some help with my 2fe: This green with white stripe and brown with black stripe 2-wire connector inside my intake manifold fell down and melted on the header. In looking at the harness drawing, I believe these wires go to the EGR temperature sensor. My ECU is a 89661-60020, which is a federal 1988 FJ62 model. I need to fix this wire. When I let it flop around, it would ground out and cause the engine to stall at stop lights. Do the wires stay separate and disconnected? Or... Read more

    A Body chrome exhaust tip width?

    By wawarnick

    Good day, I bought a 1965 Barracuda Formula S that was stripped, painted and partially put back together 3 owners ago. It runs, drives and stops. I am trying to get it road worthy. It currently has a leaky single exhaust system, but the rear valance has an exhaust cut out on either side, I am inclined to take it to a custom exhaust shop and have them bend a dual exhaust for it. Since it has cut outs for tips, it would be nice to have them How wide are the rectangular 68 and 69 Barracuda... Read more

    Another Mustang.......my 1969 coupe

    By JackA

    This car was my friend Brent's and he owned it for over 30 years. Unfortunately he passed from cancer in 2024. He wanted me to restore the 68 for his widow and keep this one for myself. The 68 is now being enjoyed by Betty in Illinois. Alot of this happened over the last 2 years while I restoring the 68. It was my side distraction. Here's the herd of projects as they amassed in my backyard. Spring of 2024.

    This years homework

    By REZARF

    I teach a basics automotive class for one of our local high schools here in Montana. Just two 45 minute elective classes a week (I am a preacher by trade). This years project/homework... A 1972 FJ55. Found it locally. I pulled over the first day it was on the side of the road with a for sale sign in it. The gentleman who owned it wanted more than I was willing to pay. I passed. It sat for sale for a few months before the owner lowered the price a bit, so I swung back by for a closer look... Read more

    Unsolveable Power Loss Problem

    By Seth_O

    1993, essentially intact with very few powertrain mods performed. I have an issue where it will randomly lose power while driving. Step on the gas pedal and....nothing. No response from the engine at all. It doesnt necessarily drop in RPM's to idle, but you get nothing from pressing the gas pedal. Usually it picks back up after a few seconds (sometimes minutes) and then acts like nothing ever happened. It first started many months ago, but happened only once every 5-10 drive cycles. It got...

    Arriving in Olancha

    By 65swb45

    Arriving in Olancha by Mark Algazy There is nothing quite like arriving in Olancha. At 9.A.M. On a Thursday. In December. First of all, it has probably been decades since any one associated the words 'arriving' and “Olancha' in the same sentence. Secondly, for those who only travel the blacktop, 9a.m in December ANYWHERE in the Eastern Sierra only conjurs up images of cold, blustering wind. Since I had not started out my latest adventure with... Read more

    Intro thread

    By HawkerJock

    94 FZJ80, acquired Jan 2026, PO started a front main, oil pump and distributor seal replacement and morphed into head gasket replacement and whatever.... Then life hit him, everything ended up in the back of the cruiser, moved to Colorado, got a girlfriend/married and his parents wanted the cruiser out of their driveway! I watched that cruiser sit there for 2 years, then had a weak moment. Today, it starts, sounds good for about 5-7 seconds then slowly dies. I've been a wall flower on... Read more

    Charlotte NC service center experience?

    By DeltaV

    Per my thread over in the ordering forum, it was recommended that I look into my local service center, especially since I'd be a good distance from it (low country SC). So, has anyone had an experience in Charlotte yet? I did a quick look thru recent threads and didn't see anything. Thanks!

    Is your wife into A-bodies?

    By tom999w

    My wife is a foreigner, so has zero interest in A-bodies, or cars in general. Every time I drag home an exciting new project (cars, boats, cycles, etc.) she sees it as junk. And once I get it restored and running she still doesn't see the attraction to it when we go for rides or put it in shows. I'm grinning from ear to ear enjoying the new toy, and she's just asking, "Are we there yet?". Is anyone else in the same boat?

    1987 240 M47 5 speed clutch pedal suddenly soft & no power above 2000 rpm in all gears

    By everyhumanvovo

    Driving my warmed up 244 and when coming onto highway revved to about 5500 in 1st and 2nd gears. Then, when pressing clutch pedal to shift to 3rd, noticed it was suddenly very soft to press in. No odd sounds during any of this and still no sounds. Also, no burning clutch smell. Following this, with the clutch pedal suddenly being very soft, have little torque and does not seem to stay engaged at all above 2,000 rpm. For some reason have been thinking this just might be a small spring... Read more

    FJ40 Cross-Country Expedition: Will YOU join us???

    By hecrod

    So here's the idea... originated by @sggoat , since signed on to by several others: We will create an FJ40 cross-country expedition--one that has Legs running from North to South, East to West and diagonally across the USA (and maybe Canada and Mexico as well?). This expedition will be of a relay format, with some relay portions completed by individuals, and others by groups. We also hope it becomes ever-green, with legs kicking off from time-to-time in years to come! Why do this... Read more

    1972 Demon Build

    By Vyxity

    A while back, I posted about my girlfriend's 1971 Duster Twister budget build. That car has been an absolute blast, and there's just something great about having an old beater you can drive around without worrying about every little scratch or ding. Well, I decided to join the fun and picked up my own ratty A-Body. Some good friends of ours came across this '72 Demon sitting out in Arizona and passed along the owner's phone number. A few conversations later, we bought it sight unseen and... Read more

    Metal Coolant/vacuum line

    By miknoypinoy

    Is there any reason why I couldn’t/shouldn’t change these Metal lines to regular hose lines? I’d really like to be able to route them under the strut tower brace. I realize now the brace wasn’t meant for the 2.0NA because of the clearance of these lines. But it’s been fine the past months prior to installing my new RMM. Now it’s a chatter box. And I’d hate for the connections to rattle out lol.
