Hey all, long time lurker recently purchased two HJ47's for a steal and starting my resto to combine them into hopefully one but first to attack is the frame!
All in all pretty sound, years of good old Aussie red dust build up, surface rust but nothing to serious from what I can tell hitting it...
... that is the name of my newly purchased FJ45 pictured below. I have been on this website a number of times but now feel I have the badge needed to join up.
I have always wanted one of the old cruisers, but I am willing to admit I know F(J) all about automotive restoration, or even heavy...

Hey Cruiserheads!
This build thread will document a full restoration on a 1995 FZJ80.
This Cruiser came to us from Texas. The owner liked another 80 build we did and wanted the same level of detail and quality. We briefly discussed a v8 swap but pretty quickly that just went to full refresh on...
Looking for the part number of this cross member on a 2004 LX. Pic isn't from my truck, but mine is in a similar rusty state and I was wondering if it's easily replaceable with a dry piece.
Hello IH8Mudders. Sorry for the non traditional approach here, but I have an immaculate 1990 FJ 62 (Body and interior at least). It has the typical250kmi syndrome = 3FE/A440F just plain done for. I’m suspecting transfer case and front/rear diff at end of service life soon as well. I’m looking...
ok, full tear down on my FJ40 as it was starting to get rusty. Chassis in pretty good nic except for the rear suspension spring perches. Question is do you think the perches should be replaced or can we scrape out the rust that's pushed the plates apart and push it back together. The rails and...
Hello Everybody,
Looking to fabricate and add to my Toyota Land Cruiser 70 series chassis - and I desperately need the CAD file - where can I get it?

I've revitalised the front swaybar - swaybar itself has been fully repainted after physical cleanup with the three-step POR-15 process (with two coats of POR-15 gloss black not just one). Chassis links replaced with later ball-joint style instead of retaining the earlier link pin and bush style...

I have parted out the bulk of my '85 FJ60, and what I have left for sale is
a pretty solid (definitely workable) body shell, on a
good frame (surface rust only, from what I could find), with
front and rear complete axles
Below are general photos of what I have...
I have an FJ40 rolling chassis with f145 motor, 3 speed, and all other drivetrain. The tub needs help as seen in pix (has had some previous rust repair and the drivers floor was taken out) and the front clip is missing. I do have some parts such as a hood, windshield, etc that could be made...
