See a quick video of the 1973 exterior and summary description on YouTube.
I plan to relocate the fuel tank to rear and replace the new-ish Bestop buckets. The goal is to keep my passenger “comfortable” and my 6’4” eye line somewhere below the top of the windshield frame.
All budget minded...
New FJ40 owner and just received the rear bumper(s) from ToyotaPartsDeal.com. I placed the "LH Bumper" on the left and the "RH Bumper" on the right. Why do I see so many of the rear bumpers mounted on the opposite side? Many of the FJ40 restorations appear backwards too. Am I wrong?
hint: look...
Awesome tank set up! ..and available within 25mi of my home. The tank skid plate looks sweet too!
@Jim ..You are so right, my eyeline is currently at the top of the window frame :)
Thank you
Bill
I am a new FJ40 owner as of this week ...and need some immediate repair to the fuel cell and modifications for comfort. The fuel tank is leaking and the current aftermarket seats are problematic for a 6'4" frame.
What options or ideas do you have placing the tank in the rear? Removing the tank...
