Just got an FJ40!

[MtnClimber]

I finally have one! It's a '73 and the body has been completely been re-done for the trail. Most of it is covered withe 1/8th " diamond plate steel and the frame and undercarriage is coated with a rhino lining type of coating. Other than the body, paint, lift, wheels and tires, and the K&N filter, it's stock. I haven't been able to drive it much yet, but once I get it registered, I will drive this thing everywhere!

I just need to Update the seats, seatbelts, get a spare, and get my trail gear and I will be ready to wheel!

Yeah, they are pretty solid. I'm 185 ish lbs and can stand on them without them moving and I took a bat to one of them and no dent was made.

That's nice. It takes some skill to bend diamond plate up like that.
