I'm looking for a auto body in Orange County, CA that knows FJ40's. Can anyone recommend a person that can install the body panels I purchased from Cool Cruisers?
Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers!
Appreciate the comments.
Yup, that's my dilemma... I'd like it as a daily driver, but stock wouldn't be realistic for the Southern California area. Whereas restomod goes against having it all original. The engine runs like a champ, just not on a freeway at 65+ mph. I may be getting the...
I'm at the crossroad - do I restore the 40 to original or go restomod?
The 40 has a good amount of rust throughout the rear panels. I'm missing some pieces (i.e. lid, correct seats, and other small pieces).
Besides money... what is the tipping point for those out there that made this decision...
My FJ40 needs body panel replacement due to cancer. I am thinking of purchasing the body panels from Cool Cruiser of Texas. Anyone purchase body panels from them? Reviews???...
Thanks in advance for your comments / reviews.
Thanks folks... metal pipe worked. Did have to smack it pretty hard to get it out.
Tyama, would you mind sharing the trick to get the fine splined birf back on? It's going in a later model '79 disc assembly.
Much appreciated.
I'm in the process of converting the front drum to disc. Having a heck of a time removing the hub from the axle.
Tried pulley already.
Any advise would be greatly appreciated.
Hello All,
I am new to IH8MUD.
I recently purchased a 1972 FJ40.
I am looking into changing the front drums to disc brakes.
Can anyone recommend a conversion kit?
