Sale pending.

Project started in 2017, stopped within 2 weeks, and has sat in garage ever since. 1970 FJ40 Clean title in hand Engine ran great when parked 4-speed installed $4500 obo

Found this when removing the driver side lower firewall and floorpan. A 4 speed was installed by the PO, was this done for that?

Absolutely.

Removed cage and found more rust under the bed liner. Mainly just surface pitting in the bed. Hopefully just some good filler and all will be well back there. I will try and sell the cage and get a family one.

Purchased the panel from Real Steel Cruisers. Panel looks good and riser was included but not welded. Just a heads up. Thanks for the help.

Working on the trans tunnel today after finally getting a hold of welder and bottle. I am really mad at YouTube at this point. It makes everything so easy! Ordered a lower drivers side firewall and removed all the aftermarket gauges and wiring.

I am having a hard time finding lower firewall sheetmetal. I see that Pocal sells them but I think I remember reading about problems with shipping and or quality with their stuff. CCOT not sell them? I am not searching the correct term?

I was not originally going to start a total rebuild but things have changed. I purchased a front axle out of a 60 to put underneath my 1970 40. Axle was more used than I thought; all brake components are worthless and surface rust on half of the ring gearand bearings. On top of that while...

I am glad this thread is helping some people. As far as my project, I discovered that the used axle I bought was more used that I had anticipated. That and some new found rust under my seats lead me in a complete different and expensive direction for a while.

SOLD.

Sale is pending. If something changes you will be next in line.

Came with my 1970 FJ when I bought it. Previous owner said it worked great but took it off for the power steering. Comes with parts that are pictured next to it. I can ship it Fastenal (had good experiences), buyer pays shipping. Weatherford, TX. $600 More pics available if needed.

I am glad someone else is. 60 axles and SUA seems to offend people on Mud. Ha!
