FJ55 dual cab ute conversion

[LAMBCRUSHER]

Just joshin' ya. That hoop looks like it'll take some s***. I am also curious as to what you've got planned for the rear end. Keep up the good work, and keep up keeping us up to date.

hey deanfj55 - got a few more pics of your piggy truck - here is the rear hoop the engineer wanted in the back.. 75x75 RHS seems to be over the top - but I think it looks good..

 

[rossg]

and a couple of the ute tray.. decided to make our own as nothing else appeared to fit properly.. too long, to wide.. etc..

Gee Wilikers did you add about 2500lbs with that bed, do you think it is heavy duty enough? Looks good, I'm debating what to do with my tail gate. I don't have much rust but, it has never worked.

I'm in the States but may have the Opportunity to move to your City for a couple years.

Wow

This thing is awesome. If mine ever gets to rusty i will totally do that.

 

[PabloCruise]

Wow! What a project!

I can't wait to see more paint pics.

It looks like your rear cut was w/ amby doors? I bet you could sell that cut pretty easy...

Any thought to putting a window (tiny) behind the C pillar?

 

[deanfj55]

yeh it had amby doors i just scraped the pig ass all complete. found too hard to put side windows in. just rear glass only

How did you fit the real window? Did you have dimensions in mind already? I'm trying to find a way to make a rear window for me. I've thought about just cutting the rear hatch out of a FJ60 or maybe out of another SUV.
