FJ45 conversion - reality check and advice sought (1 Viewer)

[WarDamnEagle]

@Honger might have a Troopy he could sell you. I agree with most of the others; sell it as is. You could easily drop another $30k+ on the conversion and have something that nobody wants.

Another member some time ago did something similar to what you are thinking but with a LWB 45.

His build link:

Builds - FJ45 Custom Troopy build

This is going to be backwards seeing that the LC is already done. I had always meant to do this earlier just could never find the time. So here it goes. Over the next few weeks I am going to try and add photos and info concerning the build. Hope you all enjoy. Cheers -Tim Below is the finish...

If you go this route I would suggest at least selling your cab and bed to someone that needs them. Then sources another cowl and windshield frame to start with and have a cyst 3/4 tub made, unless you can get Aqualu to make a complete custom tub.

I've not yet created the ih8mud listing, but you can see a bit more about the FJ45 I have here... Mideast Classics - https://mideastclassics.com/1982-fj45 It'd be a great starting point for a family friendly 4x4. Wish I was interested in trading... your pickup is beautiful. My contact details are at the website too... feel free to reach out.
