FJ20 head studs?

Post by pl510 »

Hi guys do any of you know where there might be a set of these in NZ? Pretty keen to replace the old bolts seeing as I'm doing head gasket. Cheers!

You'd be best to try Oz I think, Stewart Wilkins should have them.

Thanks mate! after a bit of homework it looks as though ARP don't offer a standard set for FJ's, but a few people like Stewart who know which individual parts to use put kits together, hence the $$$

Yeah, Kameari would be the only other place I could think of to try but it doesn't look like they list them either.

I know they are old but the are not torque to yield - so just inspect and reuse.

I ended up getting a Cometic head gasket and a set of ARP head studs out of Rocket Industries in Australia for NZ$414 landed which I thought was pretty awesome!

Sounds like they now only have one set of FJ head studs in stock now in case any of you guys wanted to jump on them :) $208.95 Aussie plus freight
