Hmmm, thanks but I'm not 100% what I'm looking at although I have the same round connector. What did you splice in and what connects to a trailer wiring connector?

I was going to switch out the bulbs with 24v capable LEDs. I'm just trying to determine how to splice in the 4 pin connector. Thanks.

Hi, I have a 1981 BJ44 June build and am looking to try and add a 4 pin trailer connector. Do you have any info that can point me in the right director for adding? Do I need a JDM import adapter? Thanks for the advice. Ride Guy

Thanks for sending. The first pic of the gray hood looks pretty good. Are all the pics of the same hood? I’m trying to understand how much work to fix the rust area the last image is showing. Is it surface or needs to be built-up and grinded. Also, where in Georgia are you located? And...

Hi and thanks for the the reply. The original paint job is white but someone in Japan painted it the olive brown. I want to take back to the original white. Here is a close up of the crease. Also, there is some quasi-severe rust. Not sure if better to fix this one or replace with a rehabbed...

Looking for a hood in good shape for a 1981 BJ-44; color doesn’t matter. my understanding FJ-40 and BJ-40 hoods in that same time frame would work. Below is current pic, let me know if you need more details about the vehicle. Thanks. Michael

Ok. I shant ;) Your advice mirrored my internal inclinations so I’m glad there is no dissonance. Best bet is to cut out the few areas of rust on the tub, weld in metal sections and paint. The roof is fiberglass and needs some touch ups at the rim. Is there a best way to tackle that? Thanks.

1st, my apologies for not responding to the thoughtful replies...life got in the way. 2nd and as a recap, I followed a lot of he advice and got a 2.5” old man emu lift, 31” tires and new steel OEM rims. During this process the main journal bearing failed and I ended up swapping the 2B diesel...

Any specifics are you interested in for the BJ44. Ive one that has a just refurbished 3B turbo engine, old man emu 2.5” lift kit. New clutch & master/slave cylinder, radiator & hoses, just changed brake pads. Has original seats and bench seat. Some rust but nothing major. Let me know if your...

I just purchased a 1981 BJ44 and have the following questions: * Lift kit (2", 2.5", 3" or 4") - Is the BJ44 springs the same as on the BJ42? Front and rear? - What's best kit to install - Shock replacements recommendations? Extend brakelines steel braided etc. * Has original...
