    Coastal Offroad rear bumper build and PT228-89460 and stock hitch fitment

    Great thank you. I’ll likely do the same with the factory hitch. I had wondered about the 4th Gen hitch; it’s too bad it didn’t clear the spare. As to reinforcing the upper portion sides of the factory bumper I wasn’t happy with the excessive play particularly with the separate plastic flare on...

    Coastal Offroad rear bumper build and PT228-89460 and stock hitch fitment

    Great job. I just added the Coastal low profile rear bumper to my 2013 Trail. Two questions: 1. To use the factory hitch, did you just cut out (and reinforce) a section of the bottom and not the bumper face? 2. Did you reinforce the upper portion of factory plastic bumper, particularly by the...

    1982 fj40 seat question

    Those seats are correct aside from the cloth material vs factory vinyl; so probably recovered at some point. Passenger seat has a pedal at bottom outer rear to flip seat forward so passengers can get in the back. I believe that the metal back panels went away in 1981 model year. My 1980 has...

    Anyone familiar with Vintage 4X4 Parts company with ebay store?

    I recently had a bad experience with them; very unprofessional. Long story short, I bought a blemished soft top at a discount on eBay that was described as the entire soft top including the rear section (upper barn door material). When the top arrived there was no rear section. Seller did...

    FJ43 pre-purchase advice/help

    I don’t think that there is a good reason for the VIN tag to be removed. It could happen if the truck was stolen at some point; probably not that uncommon for a 40+ yr old truck from SA. From your pic #4 in first post they didn’t rivet it back where it should be on the passenger side upper cowl...

    That was my thought that with the beefier springs on 8/80+ Mr. T dropped the sway bar on the 43s.

    FJ43 pre-purchase advice/help

    Easy now, I’m not worried as I got no skin in the game. I listed many faults on this truck early on in this thread as did others. FYI - this truck does have a rear sway bar as per the pics. Question was posed do 43s have rear sway bars. In keeping this ”tech” I tried to answer. I’ve since...

    Good pic here - the sway bar mounting points are on the front of the rear axle housing

    FJ43 pre-purchase advice/help

    Maybe factory rear sway bars were only on some 43s. This post has good info and per @Economist LC76 43 soft tops had them. Not to say that they could have gone missing... Can check for perches on rear axle housing. https://forum.ih8mud.com/threads/fj43-rear-suspension-surprise.1061555/

    @Critter - I‘d take @aljollano up on his offer. He’s had and sold many very nice 43s.

    FJ43 pre-purchase advice/help

    @Living in the Past is correct, 43s came with a factory sway bar. My 43 has one and it’s listed in Toyota’s EPC. More importantly as caught by @DEADSALT that u-bolt and spring perch are pretty mangled; it likely did involve some unusual directional force. I’d pass on this one and take @jjh123 up...

    FJ43 pre-purchase advice/help

    Def not a 22km truck. As to the VIN tag, the concern is that it is missing. Even if the truck was stolen at some point it’s typically replaced. Looks like a mishmash of body parts with post ‘79-‘bib and bezel on a pre ‘79 tub (gas tank in cabin). Fenders look like aftermarket. Radiator & fan...
