    Technical Details: Topnault's FJ40 Mid-70s Tubs and More

    Tim, make sure you QC stuff while panels are tacked then have the welder finish welding when a checklist of each seam is verified as good fit. Like how they build bridge beams in a shop.

    Do these tubs include the reinforcement under the rear fenders to support the roll bar?

    Odometer

    ……Update……finally had time to look at this closer. Odometer working great again. Just took the unit out and flicked it with a small screwdriver. Drove it around all day and back to normal. Should be good for another 45 years! Probably just a little stuck from not driving for awhile - pretty...

    Odometer

    Anybody have an odometer issue? My odometer is currently stuck on 87200. The tenths of a mile column keeps spinning so I guess the cable is still good. Wondering if those can just have the glass taken off and with a small screwdriver just give it a little nudge ?

    Worked good just ran a 7/16”x20 die down the stud. The slightly smaller die cut in some nice threads. Plus the standard castle nuts are about a 1/3 the price of the ridiculously overpriced metric nuts

    I think Toyota used steel with just so many impurities. My internationals just unbolt no problem. Usually my Fords are pretty good too. Yeah not a bad idea with the bolt, I’ll try that if the rethreading doesn’t work
