Jim C is a legend and a long time cruiser whisperer. There is a demand for his time and expert service. He is a one man show and if he is on the bench he is not on the forum. He is trustworthy and does excellent work. If you send him something, a carb or a dizzy, make sure you include your...
I am running 87 60 with medium OME, 33s with a 4x4 labs rear bumper. Went on some green and light blue trails and it flexed the suspension pretty well and it rides excellent on pavement at 65-70. Get the Heavy and remove a leaf, if you need it later you can always add it. Great vendor and...
what do the rear frame rails look like? On my 87 they were shot and for my money I would go for the basics and make sure they are covered. Where are you located, clean rust free doors may be a cheaper option than repairing those doors. And if you are going to paint it may make sense to start...
Had one on my 87 FJ60. Originally titled from factory in Virginia, most definitiely a dealer option. Took just the tail off and now I can go faster and all the girls lift their tops when they pass me. Magic roof rack

How do you put a price on Love.....As Mark says get it mechanically sorted and not leaking, running on clean lubricants and fuel. Address the rust and safety issues, spend some time getting to know the truck and cleaning it up. It really all gets down to "get on board with your first one...
Hey 90,
It is on a slanted driveway, but yeah it seems just a little SB, but I think that will settle after a few weeks of driving, Because of TE needing to be done and rough running the truck has about 15 miles on it. but I think the med/med is the way to go especially if you are...
As of right now make it reliable. It was in a lot rougher shape than he thought when he bought it. We need to replace TRE and then have an alignment. It is going to the mechanics to have valves adjusted and timing set as it will not idle when warm. After that he is planning on running it and...
