    Pros and cons for moving gas tank on fj40

    That was a TCI fuel cell. I more recently built a tank for it though, over 30 gallons.

    The black box

    I thought those black boxes had to have some sort of external cooling for them? I can't imagine they would like long trips at high speeds....

    Post Build Thread - 1972 Fj40 Linked/LS 5.3/4L60e

    Yeah it works pretty well. If I didn't have to work about interior space (2 kids) I'd probably re route them in a different manner. If I had to do it again, I'd use trailing arms as opposed to a double triangulated 4 link.

    I'll try and snap some pics. It goes into the tub through the stock filler neck and immediately exits through the rear fender well. Then runs back in over the highest part of the tank.

    It's a trial and error process. You can spend as much time in the link calculator as you want, buy its comes down to packaging if you plan on keeping a stock frame.

    Have at it on the flares. I have done my fair share of stealing ideas.....

    Well, it seems as though it might be worth while to provide some feedback to the forum that has helped me out on many occasions. This is a post build thread (Are builds ever really done though?) of my 1972 FJ40. I thought if I provided some pictures and knowledge of my experiences it might save...

    Builds Stretched 1-Ton FJ40

    Stock frame in the rear. I'll have to measure wms, it's a full width Dana 60U. I had to sneak a 1/2 wheel spacer in to get a little more width, but I had plenty of lug length to do so.

    Here is some pics of how I cleared the rear of mine with 12x2.0s. It's very very tight... wheel back spacing helps big time.

    Heading out to the rubicon the week before you. I believe there is a 31" run that weekend.

    Lift option since I can’t hi-lift anymore

    Check out the powerbuilt 640912. A buddy has one in his jeep on 40's. Its extendable, and I was sold on it the first time I saw it.

    E-brake options after axle swap

    Yeah we use Swagelok in almost all of our applications. I'd be happy with a 6k# rated valve. I think I can build a linkage that uses the handbrake operator to open and close a ball valve, I think it would be a cool setup.

    E-brake options after axle swap

    I'm all about simplicity, I am going to see what kind of valves I can come up with.

    E-brake options after axle swap

    I can source some very nice Swagelok ball valves at work.....I like this idea

    E-brake options after axle swap

    Thats good enough for me. This is really the easiest option.

    E-brake options after axle swap

    Is there a specific line lock you have had good luck with? I have considered this, but it seems like alot of people have issues with bleed off. It holds for 24 hrs I'd be happy.

    E-brake options after axle swap

    Have any of your guys had any luck with rear calipers (GM Metric style) that have the e-brake built in? I am exploring some e-brake options right now, since I generally use my auto to hold my fj40 in park. I don't have the space for a driveline parking brake since t-case is fairly tight up...
