Thanks man. So, how much difference is there between the FJ60 (pictured) and a 1978 FJ40? I would assume there are a few more ports to deal with on the 60 and noticing the new card build by Jim C, does that have to be done as well.?

Hey guys, I was hoping to get a desmog kit and a step by step instructions for dummies like myself for a 1978 FJ40. I would hate to start making this thing not run right with the desmog, so i'm hoping I could use your expertise so I can get this ready for my elk trip on Oct 20th. After reading...

Thanks for the reply. I found a bunch of desmog info on here, but a little overwhelming looking at the different years and kits. It looks like JimC is the Jedi of desmog, but havent been able to get in touch with him for his kit (if there is one for a 78). Been reading that there could be some...

Hi all....I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction here. I live in Reno and have been working on my stock 1978 FJ40 for the past few months. I started doing a OME suspension kit and a mini PS conversion and now seem to be into some areas that I'm not to familiar with. I have...

I'll check the block to see if it's power steering ready. I grew up with this beast and it was always taken care of. No issues for smog here, but I'll keep it all since you all answered my questions. This thing just runs, so no need to mess with it. Just a softer ride and power steering should...

Here it is

Sounds good...I think the EPS is a safer cheaper way to go. I'll have to check which one is best for me. Spoke with Kurt at Cruiser Outfitters and dude definitely knows his stuff. Thanks for that referral. I will most likely be getting the kit from him, but just wanted to check with Extreme...

From what I can tell is that the 2 places to get the OME lift is Iron Pig and Extreme Landcruiser. Does anyone have any other options?

Can you replace the smog pump set up to the PS assembly for an easier conversion? I'll keep the distributor set up now, and 33X10.50 will be just fine...Thanks Wheres the best place to buy the OME kit? I spoke with Classic Cruisers in Colorado and they can get them, but indicated they are on...

Great site! LOTS of info. After hours of reading I believe I have a game plan for this cruiser. I have inherited my dads stock 78 FJ, and I don't want to mod it out that much, but I feel that there are a few necessary things that need to be done. If I am wrong or missing something, please let...
