Next steps on the 55 are the rear quarters and tail gate area.... going to be alot of little fixes I think. Pulling those rear windows as well will be interesting. Excited to start replacing weather stripping too. Pretty much all the weather...

Flew to Salt Lake City Tuesday of last week. Seller picked me up and we completed the sale in Ogden. Drove the FJ Cruiser 300 miles home that evening. Couldn't be happier. Better set of tires and I'm good to interlope on the next Pig Party...

Ours is a rear hatch as well and then used the tailgate for storage of tool kit, spare slave cylinder, jump pack, tow strap , misc bolts and hardware, some other s*** I’m sure is stuffed in there as well. Put a hinge on the cover with acouple...

Will be driving from eastern Oregon to sandpoint Idaho leaving roughly October 26th going to sandpoint Idaho. Will be leaving sandpoint heading to grand junction Colorado roughly the 29-30. Then back to Oregon probably Monday the 2nd. All dates...

Well atleast the winner looks like he has to much money to play with. Wait to see where it pops up Forsale next

It should have a solid frame compared to anything coming from your side of the country. The rest is just some metal that can be replaced.

Your a bad influence lol! I would love to, although with it being 2500 miles from me, I cant see myself making that trek in the foreseeable future. Plus I acquired another 80 that needs some love, I definitely have enough projects around here to...

@TRDdrew i vote you work out a deal I can store it for you tell you can make a trip or find transportation. My brother is about 30 minutes away from this. I’m a days drive round trip to it. I surely don’t need it but I wouldn’t mind hanging onto...

It’s still around. I’m working on neutral safety switch. And randomly found this thread looking for parts What a excellent build Everything is nice and neat It’s a pleasure to work on this rig

The problem is half the people can’t see the difference between something done correctly and something just done. Once again fresh paint and the wording says it’s a good rig so has to be top quality it’s on the internet has to be true

They must be bidding in defense of the seller after viewing all the "rude" comments being made about the vehicle.

Just throw that sway bar away problem solved.

Still haven't touched a thing, but I snagged a few (un)necessary items. First is a PDM. There's a few flavors out there, but I like this one. Dual bus system, rated at 200a input with 30a output terminal ampacity. Eaton's Bussmann Series...

That thing is a train wreck.

I blame @J Mack ,makes one nice pig go over 6 figures and then idiots see shiny paint and have zero vehicle knowledge other than to much money. I still don’t understand all the car collector jackasses who buy these things and park them, I get it...

I maintain my stance that BAT has been the largest contributor to ruining the used car market, well aside from the government sponsored cash4clunkers. I can't believe someone has bid that thing that high with all of the easily visible issues.

I have been aware of that Pig for a while. It is or was at an exotic/ classic/ luxury car dealer in Georgia. I have a mild acquaintance with someone who formerly worked there during the time they had this thing. He said that the FJ55 leaked when...

The more you look the worse it gets. Anyone ever seen curved upper corners on the windshield?

Guessing there is some slop in that steering. Doesn’t look like pitman arm and tie rod are a match. Let’s be honest it’s a cobbled together pile of s***. No reason to sugar coat it. Someone will get burnt on it but it’s their own fault. It’s...

Dude I am getting so excited about getting this Iron piggy looking fresh. She is going to be really nice. I really want to make this fj55 my daily. It was for about 6 months and it was OK but for sure needs some updates. Also side note you really...

Paint it whatever color you want it’s your rig, I like the nebula green but at the same time seems like all pigs recently are getting painted that. Have always loved the red and white on a 55. Own one now and will keep it that even if repainted...

No matter the color, a Pig and a Troopy look good on the beach. From @sofj45 and his 50 state tour last year.

Have hydro boost on one of our 55s no complaints.

Looks like you stock master or atleast the one you pulled is tilted to the right to make the cups sit straight up and down. If you draw a line thru all four top holes they don’t line up parallel so there for the cups in this photo are going to...
