Hi all,
I am trying to source an exhaust system for my unit, box has fallen to pieces.
I have tried going through the Toyota main dealer in Edinburgh and after giving them all the info, I am not having any luck.
Cheers,
Dennis |

Hi Dennis. The FJ75 was only sold in Australia and the ME in big numbers so that is where all the parts are.
However the FJ75 exhaust is fairly simple as it runs down the left hand side and does not swap over like the diesels.
I would go to an exhaust shop that can bend their own tube. No one here buys exhaust from toyota as their prices are about $1000 compared to my exhaust shop which does them for under $400.
Another option is to use a FJ60 exhaust .It would not be a perfect fit and would need some lengthening/shorteniing in some spots _________________ 1995 HZJ75 troop carrier

Thanks mate,
I have been getting smaller stuff sent over from back home (Perth) but reckon the postage would kill me on this, lol.
I only really need the rear section with the box and tail pipe, so will try and source an FJ60 one over here, the tail pipe is OK so I can weld that back.
Once again, thanks for your help.

Still not been able to locate anything here, call a Toyota Main Dealer and all I get is a run a round, the last one wanted me to photograph the compliance plate because they could not match the details I gave them!!!
Thanks for your input, Rosco, this place is not the same as back home, can't find anyone around here that can even supply a universal muffler, let alone bend a pipe. |

If you still are having problems with sourcing parts for your truck.I have a friendly dealer who is happy to source parts in UK.
I have just bought a front pipe for my HZJ 75 Ute with no problems and it only took 2 days! _________________ 1990 HZJ75 trayback ute

Yes, please.
Complete system for a 1988 FJ75 pick up.
Can't be bothered rooting around through someone else's rubbish, as per someone elses helpful suggestion, not.
