    Australian Bj40 - B to 13b conversion

    I can't help with the tech aspects of an install/conversion for a 13B since that's how I bought mine, but here's some reference pics. Excuse my less-than-pristine engine bay. Yell out if you need more.

    FJ/BJ40/42 for film clip Brisbane?

    It may be illegal to drive on the roads with the windscreen folded, but it's perfectly legal to drive with the doors off in NSW at least - because that's how some 40 Series cruisers were delivered from the factory back in the day. I've been pulled over for an RBT with no doors and all the cop...

    FJ45 Tyres

    Exactly right - Goodyear Custom Xtra-Grip Hi-Milers 7.50r16s These are classic expedition tyres which are as 1970s as a pornstar moustache and are quite difficult to procure new Down Under. If you're really motivated you can import them brand new from Goodyear Malaysia, but I got mine from an...

    FJ40 with Lexus dash

    Just think of all the "Sh!t the PO did to my 40" stories those rigs are gonna generate for years to come.

    Aussie camping swag...

    This is the closest I have seen which can be bought new... From a site in the US, and much cheaper than an Aussie rip-off version. Usually traditional swags were hand made by the user. So the one above is a deluxe edition, with leather instead of rope straps/handles. Tents, camping...

    Aussie camping swag...

    Those who use these types of "swags" (these aren't real swags) only do so because they don't know any better.

    Sounds likely. They're working fine for me here.

    making your own soft top.. because lets be honest.. you've built everything else

    Those markers are called tailor's chalk. Rubs right off. Don't know about in the US but you can get them here anywhere they sell sewing supplies dirt cheap. Great idea on the clear vinyl pattern material Ant. I used that one myself. Do you have any problems with the glue gumming up the...

    making your own soft top.. because lets be honest.. you've built everything else

    Looking great Ant! I was going to go down this road myself a couple of years back but found a restorable factory top cheap. I did make my own bows, which two years later are still serviceable and cosmetically/functionally no different to the originals from the factory :) I was making my...

    It's that time... clutch cylinders

    Yes, It's Christmas (Happy Christmas MUD! :) ), but it's also the time my clutch slave cylinder crapped out on me. I've never swapped out a master and slave before, and looking around on the intarwebz from google search to youtube, I can't find a tutorial specific to a 79 BJ40. Any words...

    Military type trailer thread

    And here's my trailer, which I guess could be called a military-style trailer. I bought it off a neighbour for $500. It had sat in his front yard for about 5 years. Now it's been sitting in mine for about two :D. I've done some rust repair and have PLANNED a bunch of mods, but haven't...

    Military type trailer thread

    Australian Military HJ47 Norforce Troopie trailer - made by Toyota Not mine so I haven't measured it, let alone researched it. Sorry. I'll see if I can get some better pics of the data plates which should have a lot of the relevant info.
