Need some help and advice. Recently brought home a 66 fj40 and have a donor 78. The 78 was hit from the rear.
Will the entire running gear---2F, 4 speed with T/C case and both the rear end and the front axle ---transplant into the 66 frame? The 78 has 4 wheel disc brakes and want the 2F with the 4 speed.
The 66 has some surface rust but no serious rust anywhere. The corners are clean, so is under the doors etc.
What problems will I run into? ANY suggestions and help will be greatly appreciated. Considering this swap or maybe a SBC in the process as I have in in the barn too. My choice is the 2F first.
