Thanks for the inputs. It definitely needs to be changed for something better/safer.

I have a problem with overheating of the power steering box on a new to me 1970 FJ40. The steering box is aftermarket because the wheel well has been trimmed. The FJ has a SB350 motor and the header is just a few inches from the box. There is a thin metal heat shield which seems ineffective...

Thanks everyone. I’m a Jeep CJ guy, adding an FJ to the fleet. I wanted to make sure before I spent a lot of time on the axle.

I have a 1965 FJ40 with a front differential cover that is welded to the axle housing. Is this normal for the older FJs? Is it better to replace this housing so as to have future access to the gears?

Thanks, I’ll look for the other

I’m looking to replace the front axle on my 1965. Is the front axle with disc brakes? I’m kind of new to this, what is SOA? Any idea on the origin of the springs? Are they original? I’m in SC and could pick up. How can we communicate off this forum?

What’s the status of this sale? Do you still have the items?

I agree, I recently ordered 4 parts from them and I received a box with 2. They refunded the missing parts but not the shipping. I still need the parts! They could have offered to resend the missing parts, like most normal suppliers. So I’ll have to pay shipping from someone else. I won’t do...

Thanks, I’ll have to research the work required to mod it into my40. I’ll let you know.

I could use one of those on my 1965 build. I still have 4 drums but trying to get a 60 front end with disc brakes.

Is that with disc brakes to use with and FJ40 from 1965? Thanks
