Budget 1 Ton FJ40 Build

[too tall]

Looks a tad bit wide . what's your wms and wheelbase ?

 

[megolfer]

76" in the fron. The wheels are 7" backspacing so it will suck it in some. Its wide but that is what I want.

Will that hysteer arm clear the H1 rims? Any thoughts on rock rings or just run bolts instead of the protruding threads on the inner wheels? Beef up those diff cover too. Lovin the gold Lookin good playa

Do you have any new pictures of this biatch or what?

 

[megolfer]

I will get some the next time I work on it. The tranny is ready to go in and I have the PSC Hydro assist, 1.75x.25 dom tir rod with 7/8 heims mocked up. It is getting closer.

nice work but the welds in the diff look questionable

 

[GLTHFJ60]

Wow. Talk about wide.

They are really burned in, that is just the plate over the spiders, the actual spiders are really welded and I welded the spiders to the carrier. The plate on the outside is just additional.
