FJ62 diesel 24v full camper conversion

[bigdancars]

Guys I am new to Land cuiser and I just finished building my ultimate fishing rig. I have read that certain fj's came out with full floating axle in the rear, now could someone tell me where I could possibly locate such a thing. I have hd no problem with my current set-up but if I can make it better I will certainly look into it. If you have a second look at the pictures of my rig and let me know what you think. I have built everything on this truck including paint and streching the frame you name it and it was done in 8 months.Never again!Bigdancars IH8MUD.com - Page Not Found

I used to drive a HJ61 and it can with the uber rare semi float open diff.

Aussi and other markets got them in several models of their 60 series, not only the 61

So let's see the inside of this creation. I'm surprised I'm the first to ask.

[AdventureToolCompany]

Holy C@#$%!!! How did I miss this thread???

Please post up your build and some more pictures.

Thanks!!

What a dream machine....

Good luck on FF axle search. I've seen them for sale in the classified section before so they're out there.

Same here. Nice build.

What about building a full floater from some front spindles/hubs/brakes, have some shafts made, and some spindle plates. then your front end parts will match your rear end parts. Carry one loaded hub, rotor and caliper in the spares bin and you're set for any wheel on the truck.....

looks like you have rear wheel spacer maybe a FZJ80 ff in the rear would let you remove the spacer and get FF with disk brakes??? I think they are 3 or 4 in wider the FJ60 axles and alot easyer to find in junk yards. great job on the truck would love to see a build thread the link you posted doent work

Where did you find the camper portion? Or did you fab it from scratch.

Pictures of the interior please!!!

What are the drive train specs?????


We need details man!!!!!!!!!!

Sick! Lets see the insides of that thing!

 

[MANUCHAO]

Woah.. what a set up !!!!

Yes, I second a FZJ80 rear axle.. is FF, it has disk brakes and e brake all in one.. the axle is 5" wider.. which will make a positive for that rear end !!

You need and we want mo pictures !!!!

Awesome truck!


Here's the link he was going for (I think): https://forum.ih8mud.com/members/bigdancars-albums-fj62-camper-conversion-project.html

A quote from that album page:

fj62 converted to 2h diesel 24v them stretch frame by 13.5 inches and molded a fiberglass camper to the truck.

Simplafied version of what I did to this rig!

I'd love to see and hear more about this rig as well!
