Rubber City Land Cruisers working hard at mocking up all the goodies: That H55 looks like it belongs......... @Jdc1

Doing stuff like this every day- nothing lines up ever. It’s a builders kit and you’ve gotta bring the skills to make it look/fit well. Keep fitting till it fits.

It will make sense when you go to do it, I had to do some trimming at the front edge to clear the welds. I also ended up cutting off the stakes as there was almost none of them left when I was done trimming them for clearance This was all a lot...

This isn’t going into a Landcruiser.

We are doing a 2UZ to A750F to Atlas w/ cable shifters. The Atlas has universal Toyota flanges.

Walking the Dakota controller in to it's resting space......... Support bearing................... lots more to come..... @Jdc1

Thank you.

Just received my rebuilt steering box/column back from Red Head Steering Gears. They cleaned and sealed it up real nice and is ready to install. While it was out, and with them for about 2 weeks, I painted all the parts up and it looks new. I did...

No need to search. Call @orangefj45 directly at his shop- Valley Hybrids

Jesse and his crew are working hard........... @Jdc1

Almost bed time for the van, its been getting assaulted by leaves the last 2 weeks. D

Im not going to let anyone know that Ive got Ralph Lauren photo shoot money, but there will be signs.....

Because everyone likes cool pics. Name the fly shop.

I totally get the diving in too deep issue. I have always been torn between totally tearing it down and working on it, or driving it. I chose to drive mine for many years but I let other life type things get in the way anyhow. Just finally...

i can’t believe he’s torquing it like that on a little engine stand!! 🤣. i’d be so sure it’d end up idling all over the floor!! that’s going to be awesome. you’ve got me nostalgic now. i have a blue 77 that’s been apart for going on 15 years...

Getting all tuned up !

Current overall engine bay pic.

One other possibility is to physically lengthen the hinges an 1/8. Hopefully i have enough pics to help you with the hard top fitment as well. Todd made some b pillar caps for me. I cut half holes in them and left half of the top side poles...

my guys have about 250 test miles on this one now, but I actually haven't got to drive it myself until today for the first time! It's really good. It's definietly one of my favorite projects we've done for sure, I love the RHD. My favorite part...

Very nice to hear ! I am extremely excited to drive this when complete. Jesse from Rubber City suggested we give this crossmember a shot…….so I ordered it….we shall see……...

Have not posted in a long while concerning my FJ40. New chapter coming up in the next few months, thanks to Jesse and his crew at Rubber City Land Cruisers. Sending her over to Ohio.......................... 5.3 LS swap, FJ80 power steering...

Going off for some heart surgery…….. @Jdc1

Hard top is now on, bolted on the two rear doors. Stripped down the rear hinges and converted the hinges to the scooter axles (Covered on the 40 channel and also Lone Wolf). Definitely a must thing to do, makes it easier in the future to pull the...

Cheap considering no metal For a part that can go straight to paint, it’s a great deal.

During the recent Labor Day sale I did an online order through my local dealer for a new set of running boards, as mine were pretty well rusted on my Jan '72. These boards are not identical in construction as my OEM. They are a stamped steel...
