Hello All!
I have owned this truck since 2006, The engine runs very strong, power-steering is easy with the 37's, tons of flex, and is relatively low-CG for a sprung over Land Cruiser. Almost everything is new and/or replaced on the truck. The fuel injection makes it a bit more street-able as well as the Saginaw power steering setup (one hand turning) , front sprung-over with recessed shackle reversal keeps it tight and low on the road, extended wheel base helps it track straight as well and a custom sway bar was done to keep in order to keep the truck stable in turns; flexible but still be able to be used heavily on the street (removable swaybar). It has a 4-speed manual transmission with a new clutch and all new brakes all around, 4-wheel disc brakes and upgraded front calipers make it stop well for a truck of its size (replaced/new: brake pads x4, new calipers x4, rotors, hard & soft lines all around, upgraded brake master Cyl.). Battery is fresh, all new professionally built TBI wiring system with all new sensors, injectors, computer & custom tuned chip make for a healthy and great sounding/running engine with the single exit 2.5" mandrel bent exhaust (flowmaster 50 series). Well built cooling system for Florida with a aluminum race radiator, high speed cooling fans, all new belts/hoses and fluids always kept fresh. I can help load for shipping / transport if need be, just contact ahead of time to arrange it. Its 40+ years old so its not perfect and if your not mechanically inclined, I wouldn't suggest a 40 year old truck. The FJ40 has all new floors, sprung-over, 6-point roll cage, front bezel hoop & rocker protection, so its built for off-road but could be daily driven, please email/message if you have any questions. Comes with spare 37" MTR on a 15" rim & Hi-Lift. This truck was never abused on the trails & mostly driven on the street, stowed away in my garage here in St. Augustine , Florida (32080). Seats are brand new and have never seen weather, as well as all new thicker then stock floors coated with 2 coats of RustBullet and 2 Coats of Duraback. RCI has sump for steep inclines and the new TBI makes the truck sound and run very well. I'm selling off my Toy to finish adding onto my wood-shop, the Fj40 will be sitting in the garage collecting dust until its sold... Any questions/comments/rants email or message me here...Might need minor cosmetics here and there, remember its a 40. Please no low ball offers, I feel as though I have already made the price reasonable for the truck you'll be getting...
Engine / Powertrain
Transmission / Transfer-case / Axles / Suspension
Interior / Exterior - 99% rust-free
Odds
Price: 7,500 - I consider it a very fair price considering how 'overpriced' fj40's can become (Not open to trades at all unless you somehow have a mint Diesel Mercedes & Cash)
