Cuiserboswells:"I have a very similar set up but I dont have the 3" drop pitman arm. That may be your problem. Arched springs wont solve your problem in fact most SOA guys will tell you the flatter the spring the better. Also a shackle reversal depending on how its setup will compaund the...

Yeah sorry bout the retarded post, lack of sleep and time... been out in the bush too long now. The high steer is from 4x4 Labs, so the drag link is short enough but it bottoms out on the springs before it connects properly to the pitman arm (3" drop cherokee pitman, Saginaw PS). It will only...

Hey guys I bought a highsteer kit for my 72 fj40 and I went to go and hook up everything up and the drag link doesnt line up with the pitman arm and I realized that the leaf springs were flat if not bowing in the wrong direction. I want to buy new springs but i dont know what springs to get from...

thanks for the quick replys, sorry bout the improper use of terms, like i said NOOB. Anywho do u guys know of a pitman arm that is longer than the jeep cherokee and still has the drop in it? Will the hysteer kit correct my poor turning radius?

Hey guys I am a NOOB and I am having trouble with my steering, I recently did the disc brake conversion on my 72' fj40(v8, 38" tires). I had to redo the Saginaw power steering because the guy that i got it from mickey moused it to s*** so I threw in the 3" drop off the pitman arm(Jeep Grand...

I just picked up a 86 chevy balzer gas tank and it fits up in between the frame rails quite nice and clears the shocks and diff, im SOA.

Its a 72 FJ40, and the firewall stiffening rib is in the way as is the clutch master cylinder.

Well Guys, I went through with the fj60 disc brake conversion, and I grabbed the fj60 brake booster and MC..... but it looks like the bolt pattern is the same but the fj60 booster is too big to fit in the old booster spot. I was wondering what I should.....?

I went back to the junkyard and checked out a 76 fj55 wagon, I was looking at the front axle (K082) and noticed that the where the diff and drive shaft meet it looks larger then my drive shaft and diff. but i think that I have the same 4 speed tranny. just curious wether i could maybe use that...

well for starters the guy at the yard told me that it was a fj55... anyways I was hoping to avoid the axle swap because I have the spring over and wanted to avoid welding new perches. I wanted to use the larger tie rod and knuckle control arms of the fj60 because the tierod and tierod ends are...

hey guys, I've just learned why my knuckles on my 72 fj40 are leaking. So I was looking at an 82' fj55 at a junk yard and noticed the discbrakes, I figured that since I have to tear the knuckle apart to get at the inner axle seal that it would be a good time to upgrade to front disc. Was...
