    What have you done to your Land Cruiser this week?

    Brought it home, again! We moved houses July 2019 and I put my 40 and a bunch of parts in what was supposed to be “temporary” storage while we finished some remodeling. Finished the remodel work early 2020, then COVID happened, work got crazy, busy schedule with a 3 and 5 year old, etc... BUT...

    Lets talk tires, I know what I am starting

    My brother in law and I did a Gambler 500 race here in Texas last year in a 1986 Subaru Brat. We ran General Grabber AT’s as a cheap tire and were extremely impressed with them. They handled 2 days of highway, forest roads, caliche roads, sand, mud, etc and rode smooth/pulled us through...

    Bracing Windshield Frame to Reduce Vibration (No Doors, No Roof)

    If you have a 6 point cage, using a small turnbuckle, 2 bolts and fence strap from the front bar to the windshield frame are about as cheap/easy as you can do it. The tension is adjustable with the turnbuckle too. I ran this on my old 1972 Bronco and it worked perfect to stiffen the windshield...

    1st time fj40 builder.

    Welcome! As has been said, this really is a great forum with a wealth of information. Also, the Hardcore Corner subforum should get you more answers and a little less “hate”. I’m planning SOA with flipped (extends the wheelbase a couple inches) stock leaves on the front and a 4 link rear running...

    Bazooka tube in my 40?

    Can also check out CrawlTunes for cage mounted speaker pods and system set ups. I had the marine mini amp with 4 speaker system in my last project, a 1972 Bronco, and it put out good sound and was water/dust proof. Just another option out there... Side by Side Stereo Speaker Cans Accessories...
