    Mustard Yellow

    Does anyone know where I can get Spray Cans of the Mustard yellow for a '78 FJ40, I think it's color 532. otherwise I'm thinking I might have some mixed and put into cans, but I believe I would have to buy a gallon or more so if anyone is interested in it I would like to share.

    Rear Axle

    Will the center section out of a 78 fj40 rear fit into a minitruck rear end out of a "86 pickup 2wd. I'm just wondering for future transmission transfer case swap, to get a centered diff. or would I be better off cutting down a 9". I can get a 9" with a spool, or a 86 toyota rear.
