4.0 out of 5 stars A must have for 40-Series Owners, April 29, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Toyota Land Cruiser FJ40, 43,45, 55 & 60, '68'82 (Haynes Manuals) (Paperback)

I find that this book is often the the book that I want to go to first for information about servicing Land Cruisers. The Original Toyota manuals are more thorough but they are not organized in a fashion that I like as much as this book by Haynes. This book has a very good collection of wiring schematics for vehicles produced between 1968 and 1982. Torque specifications are liberally included throughout the book and I feel that most of the critical torque settings are included. The cutaway drawing on the cover is of a 1975ish vintage FJ40 and is very well executed. This book is much more thorough than the Haynes manual for the 60-series and 80-series Land Cruisers. Forexample the 60/80-series Haynes book basically says about the gearboxes that you should take them to a mechanic for servicing. This book covers servicing all parts of the drivetrain. The unfortunate things about this book are: 1. it covers only the F and 2F petrol engines and does not cover any of the diesel engines 2. it does not cover any of the pre-1968 Land Cruiser models: some of which are very interesting and most of which are very difficult to obtain good service documentation about. This book is well worth owning and I think that it is a better Service Manual than most of the other books about Land Cruisers of this vintage.

I found the Hains to be helpful in the basic needs of a Toyota Land Cruiser FJ-40 owner, but if you are looking for a book that will give more indepth information, such as restoration jobs, I do not recomend this book. For example this books digrams and schematics are much to be desired and blurry at best.In addition,job descriptions are sometimes missing key steps. Check it for your self before you by it!!!

this book is well illustrated and contains precise repair instructions. however there are many years of this vehicle with slight to major production differences that this book does not cover.
