Builds FJ-43 Build

[Rainman]

Must cost a fortune to be doing this truck this way. Congrats on that ability!

Is that tank plastic ?

200-1501P

FJ40 Auxiliary Fuel Cell that we are setting up to be the main tank. This tank was made to the same specifications as the legendary ConFerr auxiliary tank that is no longer being made. Can be found on www.MarksOffroad.net for around $700. We will be using the stock fill location which will be piped back to the tank.

Almost like the build is happening in an artist studio— no grime, no grease, no oil and no swearing— I think if the local hospitals need an emergency surgery center, you got them covered!

Why the nylock nuts for the steering arm in #31?

ARP knuckle studs come with nylock nuts.

Studs appear to be a tad short for those nylocks,right?
