    Going to 16" wheels from 15" wheels for same tire OD...will handling noticeably improve?

    I currently have 33 x 10.50 x 15 on OEM FJ40 steel wheels on my 1983 FJ60. I am due for new tires before long and I am currently on a quest to improve the road handling. Currently doing knuckle rebuild, power steering gear box rebuild, steering shaft u-joints, and new tie rod ends. I am also...

    FREE  Graham, TX: 1970 FJ40 - Stock 3 Speed Transmission

    Stock 3 speed transmission out of 1970 FJ40. Removed it about 10 years ago when I did an SM465 swap and it has sat in the shop ever since. Complete minus shift stick. Drove it for a couple thousand miles before the swap so I know it works, though probably going through it isn't a bad idea. I've...

    Early FJ60 Power Steering Gearbox Upgrades?

    I agree that resleeving the frame for the later gearbox is probably not worth it. Didn't know if there are other upgrade/modification options. Not interested in hydraulic ram assist steering either, since it's a daily driver and I want steering feedback on the highway. Anyone have any...

    Early FJ60 Power Steering Gearbox Upgrades?

    I have some play in the power steering gearbox of my '83 FJ60. Before I go down the path of rebuilding or replacing the stock style power steering gearbox, I started reading forum posts about power steering gearbox upgrades. It seems putting 80-series power steering gearboxes on later...

    May have found interior panel manufacturer for 60's and 62's

    Cool. Even for four years ago that's not a horrible price. I was/am guessing it will be in the $1000-$1500 range for a set now. Did you have cargo side panels done, too? When I spoke to SMS a couple weeks ago they said they measure the existing door panels to set up the tooling for the heat...

    May have found interior panel manufacturer for 60's and 62's

    Awesome, good to hear they came out nice. Did they heat emboss the OEM style decorative lines in the panels? Did they reuse the curved steel piece at the top of the door panel? Mind sharing what they charged?

    May have found interior panel manufacturer for 60's and 62's

    Richfj60, I know this is an old thread. Did you ever do anything with this? I am going down the same path of having SMS make OEM style door panels for my FJ60 with the brown interior. I had my seats reupholstered recently using the SMS fabric and vinyl. They look great and now want to do the...

    Interest in new OEM-style FJ60 Door Panels?

    Hi all, sorry for late reply; I've been travelling. The fabric and vinyl supplier is SMS as some have guessed. When I spoke to SMS they said the material is produced new in-house according to the OEM Toyota specs/drawings. As others have mentioned, none of the original new old stock ~30 year...

    Wanted  WTB: front and rear door panels brown or gray FJ60

    I want to buy front and rear FJ60 door panels. Prefer brown, but the blue/gray scheme is ok, too. Must be original (not reupholstered). Just need one front and one rear. Doesn't matter left or right. I will be using these to make patterns to make new OEM-looking door panels. I am in...

    SOLD Graham, Texas: 1970 FJ40

    Thanks and cool! It was a fun build. I like doing mechanical work more than body work so it worked out well that I wanted to keep the patina'd paint.

    SOLD  Graham, Texas: 1970 FJ40

    The time has come to sell our 1970 FJ40. We love this rig but our family is growing and we are finding the FJ40 has become impractical for us and we drive our FJ60 much more frequently, so we have decided to sell it and put the money towards something else. Short description: recently...
