    Gear Ratio

    Does anyone know (or know where I can find out) what the stock gear ratios are for a '63 FJ40. We finally finished our project and have been driving the truck and the gearing seems awfully low. Top end is maybe 40 mph. 1st gear is only for crawling, otherwise useless as it is so low. I'm...

    Diamond Plate Dash

    Does anyone know if there is a manufacturer out there that makes a diamond plate dash cover for the fj40. I have a '63 and there are more holes in this dash from previous owners than I have gauges and switches to fill. I know this seems minor, but I would love a cover up solution for this...

    Ok guys, my local exhaust shop is a one man operation and he is in the hospital indefinitely. The exhaust is the only thing between my cruiser (1.5 year not running project) and the snow covered roads. So, I am going to try to build an exhaust system myself. I have a '63 with the centered...

    Hard Top Sides

    I have a set of hard top sides off a '63 FJ40. These are the ribbed (panel wagon) style sides. I know there's not much call for them, but if someone wanted them, I would get rid of them cheap. Otherwise, they are going to the trash pile and out of my shop. Thanks.

    Hydraulics

    We are converting our '63 FJ-40 from a 3 on the tree to a 4sp manual with the use of an SM465 behind a Chevy 350. I have already bought a clutch but I am not sure as to which master cylinder and slave cylinder to buy. Is there anyone that sells the parts for this conversion or would I be...

    Interco Trxus STS

    Has anybody run these tires yet. We are building our cruiser as a secondary vehicle that will see plenty of trail time but will also be driven on the highway a bit, so these tires look promising for that application. If anyone has had some experience with them, I'd like to know what you think.

    Holdover Tub???

    O.K. This may be an odd question, but did Toyota use holdover tubs from the FJ25's on some older FJ40's? I have a '63 and while shopping for a soft top realized that nobody make one to fit this year. They say this is due to body style changes. I cannot seem to find any differences in the...
