Title: Model years and codes
Post by: aussiefj on July 15, 2014, 06:40:10 AM
My FJ is a '93, it's model code is 4AY but I can't find that model code listed any where, is it peculiar to Oz? I've always ordered parts for a 3XW thinking it was the same model but a couple of times recently I've ordered 3XW parts and they are incorrect. Does anyone know which model a 4AY is equivalent to when ordering parts?

Front brake discs, but after double checking their site they have the same one listed for both ABS and non ABS. The other is an exhaust system, which was supposedly for a 3xw, headers and collector box are fine but link pipes are too long for the cans to hook up to the rubber mounting point behind the footrest plate, they are looking at the problem now and hopefully will come up with new link pipes, just got me wondering about the different model codes and whether a 4AY is the same as a 3XW.

Front brake rotors are different, ABS to non ABS. The ABS rotors are much larger where it bolts onto the wheel.
