I just wanted to check back with my results of my mystery noise and rear wheel play.
I installed a new chain and sprockets, that took care of the clunking noise. The wheel play was taken care of by a new set of wheel bearings from RPM Racing. I think the old bearing were original. I ended up heating the hub with an embossing tool and they tapped out easily, took about 5 minutes to warm it up enough. I also put the new bearings in the freezer for an hour before putting them back in. They tapped in easily after heating up the hub again. I put in new brake pads all around but will need to rebuild the calipers next winter. New tires, now all I need is some warm weather.. I saw a post that had a bunch of oil filters that would fit the FJ, can someone send that to me?....Thanks to everyone who gave me suggestions. Have a great day


In the old stock FJ a NAPA PS4937 I think will work. Or are you asking about spin on filters that will interchange with the oil filter conversion from RPM ?
