    Steering column with clock spring retrofit?

    Hey all, just doing some research for a future project with a restomod FJ40. I am looking to use something like the Ididit steering column in the project. However, there is no clock spring option available and I intend to add a steering wheel with controls for the radio and so I need one...

    FJ40 Tub Corner Radius?

    Yea when I lived there I did occasionally see some. I guess I should update my location but seeing as I am only temporarily living in the Portland OR area, not sure how long I will be here. I liked living there but there are not so many jobs in the mechanical engineering field there. I just...

    FJ40 Tub Corner Radius?

    oh sorry, I should have specified. I meant the rear corner of the vehicle. just below the curved glass this part

    FJ40 Tub Corner Radius?

    or if you have a large 90, hold it up to the corner and see at what measurement the body starts to curve away from it

    FJ40 Tub Corner Radius?

    well its probably best to just measure the distance around the curve and since we know its a 90 degree bend we can find the radius that way. could you just hold up a string or something and aproximate as close as you can where the bend starts and ends, then measure the length of that string?

    FJ40 Tub Corner Radius?

    So I've scoured the entire first page of google searching for the dimension for the radius of the FJ40 tub rear corners and can't find a mention anywhere of the actual size. Does anyone have it? I am trying to do a mock up in CAD for a future project and currently do not own an FJ.

    My Baby's Cummin(s) Along

    Good idea with the aluminum filler rod. So you are fabricating your own steering column? This will be interesting to see. I was thinking about going with an ididit column whenever I got around to starting my project but if yours turns out good maybe I would also custom fabricate one. Have any...

    Builds 🦴Frame-Off Restoration of Low Miles Colombian FJ43 Olive 1982

    Cool build! and very unique. Just wondering, do you have any close up pics of the vents on the front of the roof? I am interested to see how those are assembled and work.

    Builds Cummins R2.8 in 2nd gen 4Runner

    just a question about the rpm target. if you could pick and choose, what would be the ideal rpm for highway speed that will give you good economy but still be able to pass someone with ease? I saw that gear ratio rpm calculator switches from efficient to performance at 2000 rpm but how gradual...

    Builds matzell's stretched FJ40 build

    if you don't mind loosing manual, then I'd probably do the 5.3 LS with 4L60E. I haven't run any of these but from looking at the engines specs and hearing of the reliability of any of the 4L trans options, I would be more than confident I would be satisfied with it. Especially if you put one of...

    Builds 67 R2.8 Restomod Build

    This looks like quality work! Almost looks like a factory layout with the steering box and those suspension mounts positioned where they are

    Stretched FJ40 hardtop kits?

    So I am planning a build and want to use Aquala's aluminum 18" stretch parts/kit but it doesn't come with the sides or top. Does anyone make these? Or is it something you have to fab yourself? If fab, is there any tutorials or threads on here (or anywhere) that explain how to do it?

    Builds My R2.8 Cummins FJ40 (RJ40) daily driver build

    Hey, just wondering what you plan on doing with power steering if you go that route. The r2.8 comes with the pump right? Was wondering what steering box you might match it with and if you have figured out if it needs pressure regulation or not.
