FJ40/saginaw/other stuff
I'm working on my brother-in-law's '75 FJ40 (SBCJ40?)
It's got a small block, advance adapters bell housing, and (had) stock everything else.
I've swapped the front to "truck" front knuckles, birfields, brakes, etc.
Cut and turned the knuckles, SOA, put on hy-steer mini truck stuff, OME springs and bushings, and I'm in the process of installing saginaw steering parts (box, pump, etc).
I've ordered the tap to shorten the steering rod for the FJ's frame rail width/saginaw box setup.
But twice now I've ordered a pitman arm that was "supposed" to work with the saginaw box (4 bolt ....from a heep IIRC) and FJ80 tie rod end.
Both were for fj40 sized tie rod ends, and toyota boxes. GRRRRR!!!
So, I need a pitman arm for a saginaw box on the box end, and FJ80 tie rod on the other end, something around 6 inches (+or-) and little drop.
Can anyone point me to a supplier/vendor?
And another Q:
What's a good setup for rear anti-wrap after SOA? (ideas, vendors, etc)
Thanks in advance.
Rick.
