Little help from Tri-Cities (Kennewick, Richland, or Pasco) Mudders

[1BallJ]

Hey all,

Looking for some knowledgeable folks to take a look at my cruiser to help me I.D. what the previous owner has done to her. Didn't see any 'Tri-Cities' region club and Spokane is closer than Seattle.

Little back story, bought from a guy over on the west side who had it shipped up here from Texas. The guy in Texas was trying to make his cruiser into a rock crawler. Guy brought it up here and let it sit for about 4 years (the Truxs tires still have the hairs on them) Then it came home with me.

Have alot of spares for it. Currently installed is a 350SBC mated to a 4 speed (sm465 I think) It has a Rancho lift (EXP-K5064 I think) on it and 33x14.5. Bedliner inside the cab, diamond plate on the outside.

I would just really like to drive it up and have someone who has the time to look at it and tell me whats on it so I can get some direction on how to do the mods I want. Which are:

Disk brakes x4
PS (Saginaw)
NV4500 w/NP205

Their is plenty of the interior I need to do as well, guages and dash, tranny bump, fill holes, work on the doors, top and sides.

My plan is to have this as a DD but also be able to mud when I want.

Full pics of the Fj and spares are in my garage. Also, its a 1975 FJ40.

Let me know.

Thanks

Luke

Well I have friends in both Ellensburg and the Tri-cities but they work out of there garages on the side and don't specialize on Toyota's. So I won't be of much help but one of them maybe able to point you in the right direction.

I am born and raised in the tri-cities but have not kept up with my contacts over the years.

Hopefully someone will chime in.
