Started with a 1/2 inch plate my friend had left over.
Utilizing all 5 captured nuts in each side of the frame. 2 from the top, 2 from the bottom and 1 on each side.
I used the 1 1/4 inch front receiver from my 86' Toyota truck as the cross bar under the frame rails.

I degreased and power washed my front axle today to get ready for a rebuild next weekend. I found lots of color where I once thought everything was black!
The most interesting colors appeared on my springs. They have an obvious color code on them. Top to bottom there is white, orange, lt-blue...

I'm a newbe. I have seen lots of rear drum-to-disc conversion kits out there for the FJ60/62. I know the later 80's came w/ rear discs.
I have already gone to slotted front rotors and have seen most of the fade go away; however, I pull a trailer regularly and I still don't feel confident...
