Can someone tell me about the FJ 45/47 wagon and troopy. (Links anything)Are the wagon and troop the same size? Is one better to build up then the other. I'm looking for a road worthy one that can be built up at the same time. Any information would be great as I am def new to this vehicle.

You'll probably have a hard time finding one. There were not many imported at all.
You may want to post up in the 45 owners section. I'm sure they'd be better equipped to answer your questions.

There are 3 or 4 on ebay right now, im not worried about finding one. I want to know if one is bigger than the other, or are they the same is size and the wagon just has 4 doors an no jump seats?
My owners manual says that the FJ45RV, FJ45LV, BJ45RV, BJ45LV, HJ47RV and the HJ47LV are all the same body style - Hard Tops / Long Body. I call them Troop Carriers or Troopies.
Wagons are FJ, BJ or HJ "60 Series".
The lengths are assorted depending on the markets they were intended for, but in general, the wagons are about 1 foot shorter.
These beasts are still out there on the job - hauling crews and welding machines on pipelines, etc, in the deep desert, and are mostly pretty beat up.
Still regret that I let a pretty clean '84 FJ45LVKC get away.
