]I want to start off by saying that this site is awesome and all the cruiser freaks part of it are even better. About two years ago I purchased a 78 FJ40 from a guy in Palmer AK, and had it shipped to Kodiak, AK where i was stationed. It was my daily driver for that time. I am now in Key West, FL where it was shipped to and I am FINALLY able to begin working on it. I have a general knowledge of mechanics but will without question need help and all of your advice along the way. So far i have the wire harness out of the vehicle and the with the exception of all the body mounts, the body is ready to come off. My Plans
