I need a good frame for my 45

United States

I have a 1977 fj45 long bed and I am looking for a frame in good condition. My bed is good, and the cab so so. I am also looking for floor pan panels as well

Thanks
Don

depending on budget.....maybe Matkins could make you a new one

Thanks for the advice, I am starting to gather up enough parts to begin an off frame overhaul. How would I get in contact with Matkins and where are they located?

SWB or LWB truck?

I have a 45LV frame that I might part with sooner than later. Same as the Long wheel base pickup I believe. You'd have to graft in your VIN.

FJ45LV frame is the same as the SWB pickup, I think. The LWB shares a frame with the troopie??

Correct. SWB frames and LV frames are the same except for body mounts. LWB and troopie frames are the same as well with different body mounts.
LWB and troopies have 116" wheelbase
SWB and LV's have 104" wheelbase.
