Tie Rod end hell. Does any one know the part number/solution to a tie rod end that will fit between an 80 seres to 40 series tortion bars? We installed an 80 series Box from a 1995 LC on a 1978 frame and the system works amazing but we had to jerry rig a tie rod(passanger side) end just for...
Howdy,
I’ve been lurking without an account for about a year now. I’m closing on a 78’ this Friday (introductory post to follow).
Out of the gate I’d like to upgrade the manual steering to powered. After poking around forums and FB marketplace, I’d like to go with the beefier 80 box and pump...
Included with my 1969 FJ 40 project is a Toyota power steering unit probably from '79 or '80 just like the one shown in the attached photo. I wish to install it using the power steering kit for JT Outfitters. Apparently this kit allows you to line up the unit with the steering column. I also...
Hello all!
I’m new to the forum but I’ve owned these two FJ’s going on 12 years. The blue rig is the 67 and I’m ready to dig into it. I live in South Carolina so hard core rock crawling isn’t common. Most of the wheeling we do is dirt roads and swampy land. I plan to use the 40 for running...
Hi All !
Newbie to the forum here! I'm looking for a Steering box to do a Power Steering conversion on my 1970 - 40 series. (SBC 350 Chevota). I plan on doing the JT Outfitters kit unless anybody has a better solution they can recommend. I think you guys call it the Mini-Truck conversion...

Hello,
I am looking for someone who can help or do it all with installing a power steering modification to a 1973 FJ40. It has the original F engine in it. I believe the kits require welding and I am not the person for that. If you can, please call or text me at 202 679 4165 or email...

I've recently picked up my 3rd 40, 1st one with power steering.. I need help identifying which system was installed. I don't think it's a Saginaw box, but there's definitely a custom bracket on the frame so I don't think it's an OEM system that's been retrofitted..
Here's a few photos, any...
i worked with @orangefj45 at Valley Hybrid to get almost everything I need to convert my 1978 FJ40 to mini truck setup. I got the power steering box out of a 83 4 runner as well.
My question is does anyone have pictures of a completed install using the Rare Parts RP69224 power steering pump...
Has anyone installed this kit?
Power Steering Kit for Toyota Land Cruiser FJ40 FJ45 for Mini Truck Box - JTOutfitters
I know there is some issues with that particular vendor but I am willing to take a chance if the kit is worth it.
Hi, I'm not having much luck navigating round this site. What I have found has been incredibly helpful.
Can anyone help me out.
I've got a bj74 power steering box, linkages, & column & want to retrofit it into my 1978 fj45. Is there a link to show if anyone has done it to make this easier or any...
I have always wanted one, and everyone seems to have good stories of growing up doing some crazy missions in these old girls-so I wanted one to enjoy too!
The ute will be useful, and slowly building it up will be a learning process, and my form of "therapy".
