First, I want to thank everyone here for all of there input. I have been a lurker for a long time, but I finally scored a great 83 FJ40 with almost zero rust. Just a few service areas in the bed. Pictures will follow my questions that I am looking for help.
1. I am switching back to original rims and I have already prepped and painted them. Many suggest that I go with the BFG AT 31.10.5/15s, but I am having a tough time finding them. The BFG Mudders are and easy find. I want to go closer to the original look and have read all the threads on tire selection. Should I go with the Mudders or order the ATs. If not those, best option?
2. I have a tire swing and really don't care about having a spare on it. Is there an adapter for the swing that could allow me to just have a jerry can or two? If not, will I be left with holes where the tire swing was if I put a can rack on, or are there some that will fit into the existing holes?
3. I have a full soft top with doors and an extra set of half doors. The problem is that the door frame latch is set up for the original doors that I have on. Do I have to switch out the latch every time I want to switch doors. Also, I have not been able to find whatever the proper latch is for the 1/2 doors and soft top doors.
4. Does anyone make sun visor delete blanks? I don't currently have sun visors and have filled them with black interior tabs. The same question for the holes for the soft top. I can find cap inserts that will make due, but I wasn't sure if ones were out there made specifically for that.
I know that is a lot of questions for my first post and I am sure that I will have more down the road. All input is greatly appreciated.
