Thank you!

I have a 77 FJ40 that is all original and what many would call a "rust bucket." It was running when I parked it several years ago but not currently. I am hoping y'all can assist me with recommendations on a shop that can do restoration work. I'm wanting to do a full mechanical/electrical...

This shift linkage was this way when I bought this FJ. I think the threads are just worn out? The shaft to slides out. Have any of you experienced this? Can replacement parts be found?

Any suggestions on where I might be able to locate a drip rail that will work on a 65FJ40?

I would also like to add disc to the back.

Would you please just restore my FJ40 and I’ll drive around Dallas advertising the FJ Company? Seems like a fair trade to me.

I'm thinking adding fuel injection to the F2 and a manual five speed transmission is probably the way to go for my FJ40. Need to research best 5 speed option now.

I found this. Rear Disc Brake Brackets Toyota Land Cruiser FJ40 FJ45 FJ55 FJ60 62 Conversion - JTOutfitters

The FJ Company is installing the 1FZ engine and updated 4Runner breaks. Has anyone attempted this? Are there a lot of mods involved? I'm just curious to see if any DIY people have attempted either one of these upgrades and what the process involves.

The body is in good shape. The roof was damaged when I got it. I'm repairing it but having a real issue with the drip rail. It was crushed and I had the corner repaired but something is not right. I can't get it to line up so currently trying to figure out where the issue is. I can't find any...

FJ40-36108 I guess it's a 1965 built sometime between July and August.

I do but I can't figure out how to share photos to this post. I haven't been on this site in a while. The title does say 66. I guess the best way to tell what year is to do some type of VIN search?

I have a 66 with that same type hard top.

What year is the FJ40 hard top?

I second keeping getting the original motor running. They're good motors and it doesn't kill value in the end. Nice looking rig and doesn't appear to have much rust.
