FJ45 Resurrection (1 Viewer)

[DAFTFAB45]

Greetings IH8Mudr’s!

Working on reviving my 1976 FJ45!

Specs: 1976 FJ 45 LWB
Aqualu tub, box and fenders.
SBC 383 on propane
TH350/NP203 x LC T-Case triple stick
Front Diff. SOA w/shackle reversal, 85 outers V6 capilers w/vented discs, 4.10 gears.
Rear Diff. FF SOA, V6 caliper w/vented discs, 4.10 gears Lincoln Lock.
Custom bumpers, sliders and cage.

The truck had been sitting for a few years due to electrical issues.

Plan is to completely re wire truck and get everything working. Looking for links and advice on best electrical options for full wiring swaps, including steering column options, issues and solutions?

Cheers,

Brody

Great fun looking truck.

Download a copy of the correct wiring diagram for your year. Print it and laminate it as big as you can, and scribble your unique engine combo updates onto it.

Sticking with the original parts and wire colours where possible will make your life (and future owners lives) much easier.
