Hello all. I am taking delivery of my first FJ-40 the first week of Feb. I am getting a stock 72 cruiser from a friends father. It is stock with the F engine and hardtop. The only rust is on the cheap wagon wheels where the paint has chipped off. Odometer says 65,xxx. All of this for a cheap $1500.00. I have a few questions that I would like to ask, and I will probably answer a few of them myself, so bear with me.
-What is a birfield?
-What vehicles have the saginaw box that I keep reading about?
-What are some figures that I can expect with a PS upgrade?
-Is there a fuel injection kit available for the F engine?
I was a previous jeep owner, but have always wanted a FJ-40. Problem was I could never afford one that was good enough to use as a daily driver. Well I finally broke my friends dad down and convinced him to sell his to me. I also am able to have the landcruiser as my families 3rd vehicle. Any other tip or advice would be appreciated. I am signing up with TLCA this week as well as a local club.
Thanks,
Jake
