Wrapping up a Fj60 frame off restoration. I just want to share it with other enthusiasts. I started with a 1986 California rust free cruiser. Bought from 2nd owner. It even came with the original window sticker and build sheet from Japan
It was complete, but dirty—so I took the thing...
For sale
Came off my 1986
Manafre front leaf spring shackle reversal brackets and rear big boy spring shackle .
i think they will lift the truck 3”
$150 shipped (probably going to cost me $50 to ship—these are heavy !)
For sale:
Fj 60–bumper end set —used
Came off my 1986
I would say 3 are in “good” condition. Driver quality . One—drivers rear—has a tear in it towards the bottom.
$75—shipped (including shipping--thinking it will take $25--to get them where they are going)

I’m going to fabricate new frame bracket, but don’t know placement.
Can someone measure where the original Center of the shackle bracket is located in reference to —-maybe the rivets for the body...

On the paper title.. VIN number reads: T68FJ40L00000
I am assuming:
T=toyota
68=model year 1968
FJ40=model...
Looking for a high quality "straight on" picture & dimentions of a passenger fender tag for 1968 fj40.
Looking to reproduce it.
I'll make a few extras..
Looks like this.
The cleaner example of one...the better
Thanks
I just installed a universal "ez wire" wiring kit in my fj40, with great success.
1968 fj40.
Hazard light circuit tip:

Anyone replace your old chrome hatch supports with modern hydraulic ones ?
Anyone have a part number?
I went to the local chrome shop---they wanted $400 (ouch) for rechroming!
Figured the modern style ones are clean & simple. Don't look half bad.
