Any tips for replacing the rear sill and floor on a '78 FJ40?
I am shopping for a replacement and wonder about the quality of replacement parts out there.
Thanks, Ken RN
I'm starting a new project and wondering if these body panels should be welded. One of the previous owners welded the rear sill to the rear corners so i'm suspicious these also shouldn't be welded.
I'm getting ready to do some body work on my 73 FJ, I want to replace the rear sill that's rotted away and do some patch panels in the corners. The rest of the tub is not that bad so I don't want to pull it off the frame. My question is can I replace the rear sill without pulling the tub?
It all started when I began working on my uncle's FJ60, it was my deceased uncles truck and left to him. I rebuilt all the suspension, front and rear diffs, TC ect. I'd never worked on a LC before (I've always been a made in America kinda guy). From the start I was impressed by the beefiness of...
I'll be replacing rear sill and corner channels, and need a few measurements please. I found where some one had said 41 1/16" another 41 3/8", I'd like to have the distance of both inside edges. As in pics. 1) where the quarter wraps around 2) the major opening
The corners are in pretty bad...
So I'm attempting to cut out the rear sill since theres a bunch of rust under it.
Does anyone have a good video showing how? I did look on YouTube but I just keep finding before and after picture videos.
It's a 78fj40
What should I expect to pay for a rear sill and quarter panel patch job at a body shop? I have a clean 1974 FJ40 that needs the rear sill and quarter panel patch job done. Any info will be appreciated. Thanks.
Im in the process of rebuilding 3 fj40's a 74, 75 & 76. I'm in need of a complete rear tub or may me interested in a whole tub. I'm in Florida willing to travel but not to far. Thanks!
Anyone remove their rear sill and wings and willing to ship them to Wyoming?
I am wanting to make a new rear sill for my 1978 40 series. I have made one before but it was not a 78, it was for a 1962 and I had to park it for a week or two while making it. I am trying to keep my 40 on the road...
