found fj60 salvage yard

looking for suggestions to upgrade my 1975 fj55 with a 1985 fj60 from the junk yard. i already took the axles out to the hubs for disk brake conversion and the gear box. will the electronic distributor work with the ignition pack?

Swap out the entire ign with the 85 stuff (coil/ignitor and the distributor). 100% electronic no muss no fuss !

Garage
I'd grab the PS steering, The left front motor mount if it had ac as well as the alternator mount

Also DC drive shaft.

Don't forget to get side engine cover.

If the smog stuff is any good I'd grab the air rail valve and I think there was another one that was similar. The two BSV valves off the front thermostat housing. This isn't for your vehicle but someone will pay good money for them. If the smog pump hoses are good I'd also yank those.

Thats about all I can think of right now.

Double carden - the driveshaft has 3 u-joints vs 2
