Hello gang, I’m looking for some guidance on my upcoming phase of my ‘64 FJ40 build.
Here is current stats on vehicle and intended use:
Chevy 350 (Sniper EFI)
Turbo 350 transmission
4.3:1 Atlas
Disc brake 14b
4.88’s w/ARBs
SOA in rear on Wagoneer 44044’s flipped
97” wheel base
37” tires
Trailered mostly, but still want to be able to highway drive to trail if needed.
I’ll be running a GM D60 up front with a full truss and want to push axle forward approx 3-5”
Plan is to run a 3-link with coilovers. If my pocketbook would allow it, I’d drop it off with Georg @orangefj45 but that’s not in the cards currently. Any photos or tips are appreciated.
Here is a photo of the stats for the 3-link plan and my current setup.
36” links (upper and lowers)
Upper on Diff, running just above my driveshaft.
Any guidance is appreciated, especially for panhard and frame plating. I’ll be running a Saginaw box and will have it rebuilt and tapped for hydro-assist
