My kid wanted a Jeep, she's getting a 77 FJ40 LS Swap instead (6 Viewers)

Added the power steering cooler, still need the pressure line. Went to my local hydraulic shop, unfortunately its the one fitting they didnt have so it'll be a week before that is done. I finished rebending the brake lines, bled the master and then connected the lines. I may have to redo the rear line, it didnt seem to seal up as quick as the front and I wont know till I pressure the lines during the brake bleeding process before I know for certain.

Good thing it has that diamond plate to hold it together! Stoked you’re doing this. Looks like fun

Late reply, what is with people using checker plate to wrap it. Asking cause I have the same thing haha

I finished installing the Toyota H4 light kit, also installed the ToyotaMatt brackets for the fuses too. I fixed the master rear line as the bubble flare didnt seal right, so far its the only one out of all of the ones I made up thats leaked. I also installed a new ignition lock, the doors will be keyed the same (unlike my 74).

Passenger side bulkhead grommet installed. Started working on the Dakota digital dash connections, coolant, oil pressure and speed sensor installed. I will tackle wiring it up in the control box over the next couple of days. I also placed the dash selector switch in the dash. The Topnault tub had the right size hole for the single brake light, unfortunately the defroster duct was in the way so the only thing that would work is a shallow light or a switch.
