1970 Toyota Landcruiser FJ40. I have pretty much gone through the entire rig, since getting it in May. Unless stated otherwise, all parts mentioned have less than 100 miles on them. If you're unsure, ask. Rebuilt 350,.20 over with flat top pistons 1.96 heads and a .260 cam shat. Older griffen radiator and black magic fan. New Edelbrock performer intake. Currently has a recently rebuilt quadrajet on it, but includes a complete Holley pro-jection setup. New water pump, cadillac high-output alternator and late model mini-starter. Rebuilt TH350 transmission, new torque convertor, stage I shift kit. Np205 with DD Machine clocking plate, for a nearly flat belly. Front axle is a custom, narrowed and turned D44. It is 27" spring center, and ~64.5" WMS. It uses a stock chevy shortside inner shaft and a stock 80's Waggy long side shaft. New bearings, rotors, calipers, seals, etc. Warn Premium lockouts, Sky MFG. "tall" hi-steer arms with 1.5" DOM tie rod and drag link with new 1 ton tie rod ends, Crane diff cover, 4.56 R&P and a lock rite. Rear axle is a Scout II D44 with 4.56 R&P and a Detroit locker.(Gears and lockers are older) 2" wheel spacers make the WMS ~62". High Angle drivelines F/R. Rear Shaft is Toyota CV and Toyota ujoint with 1 ton flange at the tacse and Toy/D44 flange at the axle. Front shaft is a 1310, Rock Crawler HD long-spline.
The wheelbase has been sretched to about 103" using s-10 rear springs in the back and toy 4runner rear springs in the front. The front springs are shackle-reversed, with the shackle through the frame. Rancho RS9000's at all corners(older). It is sprung over but sits relatively low. Cruiser sits on 37" Goodyear MTR's with about 10,000 miles on them. Wheels are 15x8 genuine alcoas, I have 5 wheels but only 4 tires. I am the original owner of the tires and had them on another vehicle prior to this one. Other stuff includes york OBA, re-covered integra seats (water-resistant) mounted to the cage, new painless wiring harness, custom switch panel from 12voltguy.com. (2) Optima red tops and dual battery kit from 12votlguy.com (not installed). Custom tube fenders/running boards/boat sides, mini LED front blinkers. Has a 22 gallon ford fuel tank mounted underneath the rear deck. There's a rear swingout tire carrier/bumper, 2 con-fer jerry can holders and 2 NATO jerry cans (the good ones). New AGR saginaw steering box, GM tilt column, new steering shaft with flaming river and borgeson joints.
I'm sure there's things I'm forgetting, but the long and short of it is I got this cruiser in May expecting it to be a runner, I have since spent most of my time replacing nearly everything on the rig and I'm burnt out. The ONLY thing I haven't replaced at this point is the rear axle, which is fine.
The only issues with the vehicle as of now are that the intake needs to be ground a bit to clear the york mounting bracket. This doesn't have to be done, but the belts will not be fully lined up if it's not done. Also the tubework needs to have some welds sanded down and needs to be painted. I have a bikini top and a full hard top/doors for the rig. The headers do leak a bit after the motor swap. It has a full set of pro comp gauges, but the fuel gauge doesn't work (suspect bad gauge)and the speedometer and volt meter aren't hooked up. Engine temp, tranny temp and oil pressure all read fine. I have a ton of spares inluding front axle shafts, High Angle rear CV driveline, square front driveline, original starter, water pump, etc.
Any questions, please call (530) 228-7716 or email @ onmylid@aol.com
