on another note at this time i think the only options 4x4 labs has for om617 is for the truck trannys and GM bolt pattern...i would love to see a direct to H42 swap.

I thought the same but a guy here on the board said they have now developed the H41/H42 adapter as he is using it in his build. Maybe they just haven't updated their website yet. Even if they don't have it I imagine it is only the next logical step for them.

I thinking pretty hard about putting an OM617 in my other FJ40 as it has no drivetrain at the moment. So why don't you do it first so you can work out all the bugs for me :hillbilly:
 
Stop the presses! The check didn't clear! I changed my mind! Paint it back to the brick-ish red..... jk! I'm glad you got it. I think she'll be fine!

Title and bill of sale go in the mailbox tomorrow.

Love the blue! I painted my hardtop today and it came out so much better than I thought it would. Check out my thread. "2h Lhd. Look familiar?"

What drivetrain are you going with?
Daniel

HEHE, you can have it back but it is in pieces now :hillbilly:

As for the drivetrain, I am sticking with Richards old 1F that we put in it back in April...... only thing I am changing is going to adding the sweet dual SD40 carb. intake manifold that Marshall found for me and adding an electric Non-USA distributor. Other than that I am going to leave it stock and just drive and enjoy it :beer:
 
Update but not really.........

I didn't quite get the seats done last night like I had hoped, but I did get the driver's seat stripped down. Most of my time was spent trying to fix the sliding mechanism on the driver's seat which I was unaware was damaged. Thus I don't really have any "eye candy" to show, but I did want to post up a picture to show what nice shape the seat was in. Most I have come across are all rusted underneath the padding due to water getting in the seat, but these were suprisingly in mint shape :beer:

i don't even have an F bellhousing any more! I do have a 3 speed to chevy bellhousing!!!

Whatever swap i do next will have an overdrive either with a ranger OD or a 700r4
 
Seat heaters? Pretty sure Chuck is going to revoke your Mafia status.

I figured while I was in there..." Why not???" Everyone likes seat heaters. I hope to make this my DD during the Fall/ Winter/ Spring. Plus I am getting older now and enjoy the finer luxuries in life no matter how ironic they may seem in such a minimalist utilitarian vehicle :hillbilly:
 
s*** JP, if they give you lip about heaters imagine what they will say to me for wheeling a GX!
 
seat heaters will rock!
So long as you don't put TV's in the dash i won't make fun of you.
 
A tv in the dash would rock!!!
 
I wanna see a PS3 in the dash, with some 22's and spinners... Maybe some hydraulics or some 3 wheel motion...:grinpimp::grinpimp:
 
and a pair of those trucknuts things hanging from the axles!!

Pretty sure Dan we won't be able to say anything about you. I've seen you wheel. You don't hold back. Pretty sure you could make a moped look good out on the trail.

now you are speaking my language :beer:
 
Those are illegal now.;)

WHAT!!!! :eek::eek::eek: Why and who would make an accessory for your truck that is a graphic representation of part of the male genitals illegal? What's next? Are they going to outlaw car window boobs? Big brother state taking over!!!:grinpimp:
 
They make car window booobs!!!!!!!!!!?????
 
I tell ya....people don't have anything better to do than stick there crummy nose in other people's business.....I guess that's why I've seen large nuts that you would find on a ship or a large machine hanging off truck hitched instead of the ones in the article.....people who have a problem with freedom of speech should move to Cuba....that way they can have someone tell them what to do.
 
Okay you guys and your "truck NUTZ" and "boobs" have officially taken all respectability from this thread...... this kind of stuff belongs in Gimpy or Chuck's thread. I am trying to have a respectable build thread here not some MAFIA fiasco :flipoff2:
 
If we weren't all so freaking jealous of your truck we may just leave well enough alone! Seriously very nice ride wish it was in my garage.
