SOLD!!! (If there's a way for me to delete this thread, let me know!)
Here's the deal. A few years ago, I did the GM 5.3L V8 swap to my very cherry 87 FJ60. I mated the V8 to the Advance Adapter and ran my H55F and stock transfercase. Before that, I did a bunch of stuff to make this a solid vehicle. Some of it was overkill, but hell...it's a Toyota and I'm nuts.
Here's a little list of the items for sale....
You'd be getting this:
- FJ60 frame & hardlines, hoses, etc.
- FJ60 front & rear axles and associated lines/hardware
- OME 3" HD lift springs & shocks
- 5 33" BFG ATKO tires (the spare is in excellent shape) but the tires are 10 years old and should be replaced.
- 5 MB Motoring rims that are in excellent shape (some scratches, but still great condition)
- Skid plate
This is what I've had done:
- Frame was galvanized and powdercoated about 2 years ago. Obviously, no rust. It was a very solid frame before that. Now, it's bulletproof.
- Axle rebuild. Both of them were done about 15k miles ago, probably less. All new Toyo bearings, all the best gaskets, etc. The only things I didn't do was take apart the differentials and have them rebuilt. But, they checked out very good condition.
- OME 3" lift kit only has about 15k miles on them as well. The measurement from center of the rear hub to the fender is 23". (That's with a 1" body lift)
- Skid plate was also galvanized and powdercoated about 2 years ago.
- Power steering box professionally rebuilt by West Texas Offroad with new bolt hardware.
Since the truck was a v8 swap, it has different motor mounts welded to the frame. Most everything else remains the same. There are a few extra holes drilled into the frame (like in the front where I mounted a PS cooler), but nothing to change the integrity of the frame at all.
I'm looking to get $3500 for everything. I think that's a fair price for what you're getting. It's already got mounts for a V8...
I'll be updating with more pics and info as I dig through my computer. I'm pretty meticulous about my vehicles and this one was no exception. The only reason I decided to get rid of this frame is because I'm silly enough to want to put the 80 series chassis underneath my 60 body...
If there are questions, ask away. I've got just about every single thing documented on my hard drive...just not quite fully organized!

. I will talk with my financial adviser (wife) and see if we have the funds available for this.
