$200.00 for a 78 sill but isn't your tub a 71?? - 71 sill is $165 - shipping not included (bout $40 to the 48)

Ok - I'll do some rambling thinking out loud here

I have the E-74 sill figured out. It had the stamped sheet metal tire carrier on either the left or right side with the 4 bolt horizontal latch. The sill was a simple channel shape. It was covered with a skin that welded to the quarters and gate sides.

From 01/75 to 08/76 the sill had the recessed catch and lip for the doors but kept the older style carrier (stamped sheet metal) and latch. It was still a two piece affair with a channel shape and a skin. Left side tire carrier only???

From 09/76 to 12/78 the only change was the style of carrier from stamped to tube and the latch/ bumper to match. Left side carrier only???

The 01/79 to 84 sill had the tubular carrier and it was only on the left side (nothing is absolute though) - it had the rubber bumper and the angled smaller latch. The sill was composed of two stamped sheet metal parts that formed a rectangular tube. It had access holes on the top to get at the mounts, recess for the door catch, recessed lip for the doors, drain channels underneath.


Anyone have better info?

I have an 8/76 FJ40 and my rear tire is a box on the left. I have NEVER seen one on the right on a 76-78. I could be wrong but fairly confident that they are all left.

How much for a sill and cover shipped to Mississippi? Please pm me....VERY interested. I can do measurements and work with you if you haven't fabed one yet.


BUMPity for a timely (to me) and great welder!

Kevin ,
Will you take a deposit and when we get the rest of my order set figure out the details later for final payment?

Thanks,

 

[Awl_TEQ]

Sure - what pieces were you interested in?

Kevin

 

[copasspupil]

It would be the snorkel on pass side and the bonnet we talked about. I sent you an email today with a few other questions and will get you the measurements tomorrow.

 

[Awl_TEQ]

[Coolerman]

Wow! You have expanded! Those rear sills and especially the entire rear channels look fantastic.

 

[Awl_TEQ]

Thanks Coolerman. I'll be in touch in a month or two for advice and wiring supplies for my "B"J45 with added circuits. I seem to be "back on the wagon" in regard to build progress.
