I will try to make it up Saturday. I'm new to the club and need to put some names to faces. Can anyone recommend who to get power steering hardware from or point me to a thread about power steering for an FJ-40. Thanks Brad

Thanks. I started a new thread, I think. I have a '76 FJ40 with a lift and 33's. Not much off roading, at least not yet. Who knows after I start hanging out with you guys.

cool karl, sounds like rick is in too so that is atleast 3 rigs which is more than enough to give me reason to drive up the 40............ I haven't wheeled since the whee
I talked with marshall about it yesterday and I think we might head out for the scouting after lunch at table rock since we will already be about half way there at that point
trying to decide which cruiser to bring...... is anyone else going to do some scouting/wheeling on Sat. afternoon??? I really want to do some wheeling in the 40 but obviously I don't want to wheel alone; so if no one else is going to wheel I will just drive the nice cushy 80
so who is on the action
I have the wheeling itch BAD so I'm in.
Also, I'll bring my 2 jackstands in case someone else needs them, and most of my handtools (no need for dem stinkin' SAE sizes). I've also got a big honkin' ratchet I'll bring. Anything else in particular that we're missing? I don't have one of those double bowl sinks lying around, sorry Marshall...
I'm going home for dinner with the
es, so I expect to be there between 7&8 tonight.
i'm still wiring the cruiser, so I don't think it's going to make it. I ended up pre-wiring a lot of things that I plan to add later. I'll stop by tomorrow for a few 
's tomorrow though regardless.
's tomorrow though regardless.Sounds good JP! I wish Musterground was open. Anyone gotta key for it?? That would be sweet. I'm not aware of any trails at Table Rock though, so that could be fun!
I've got a Jack and Stands if anyone needs them for the wkend. Eventhough I won't make it today, I can probly still send them up with Steve or he can take them tomorrow. Anyone think you'll need them or anything else? I'm mainly just coming to have a cpl drinks, tell some lies, and learn what I can.

It sounded like Jan Brady complaining but it was really cries for help, advise and was always answered with tech help that exceeded all my expectation.
I want to thank Marshall for pulling my sorry butt through this, I could have never done it by myself. 
He is a LC guru as far as I am concerned. Thanks also to steve for his help, made a big difference. By the way, ran out of paper towels finally, needed about 10 more. Next time I'll bring two boxes and help the next guy out. Appreciate all the complements I got on my 60, just need a few more things that are "on the list".Thinking tires,,,,,,gotta buy a tin tepee too in the mean time.
Thanks again for ALL the help, even if it was just pointing one of the fans at me cuz you felt sorry for guy sweating like a pig!!
