It's a piece of s*** - Fireman's 77 FJ40

@Fireman I have one of those cheap CCOT solid rear panels you can have...(as Nolen rolls his eyes in disgust) if you don't want to go to the trouble of doing half doors.

Just as a point of reference, two complete half doors, hinges, etc, ran me close to $400. And they were in need of blasting and painting.

Is this thing running yet?

Cool. Bring it to the Big Junk run in two weeks in Clayton and we'll break in your 40. Or mudship it.

Yes and no. Ordered the clamps today but can't figure out which wheel cylinders to order since they list like four for each cylnder on each wheel.

I'll text you the correct part number David.

 

[Fireman]

The only markings on them are 7/8. R and then ZA

Fireman lucked out and got the last two RH rear cylinders. They are now discontinued from Toyota.

 

[jynx]

Well I guess that settles it, I'm gonna have to just do a rear disc conversion.

 

[Fireman]

Or just stock up on a couple of rebuild kits.

 

[Fireman]

A little @beno OEM goodness. Purty!

 

[Fireman]

We have reverse lights!!!! That makes all the lights working on the truck! Also I have been studying on the rear bumper and think that I'll keep it on instead of putting the stock bumperettes back on. Gives me more protection and a decent hitch. The mounts also have cool little chain catch notches on them. Doesn't have a manufacturer name on it but it's cool.

 

[wngrog]

That is a Con Fer bumper.

Pimp n

 

[Fireman]

Guess I'll pull it and powdercoat it.

 

[wngrog]

Keep an eye out for some late model yellow doors...amby and sides.

 

[Bossman]

Did you buy that rig from FB?

 

[77TLCFJ40]

Weld a bung to that bumper and it's an air tank.

 

[wngrog]

Did you buy that rig from FB?

Me? Yes. It's even got a sunroof.

[wngrog]

Yes, it is getting a Soft Top and a tailgate and going to Mardis.
