New FJ40 in town

[ATXfj40]

Just got back from Denver with a blue FJ40 and figured I'd say hi. Was wondering if the meetings at Rudy's still happen.

Thanks
John

Last Tuesday of every month. 7:00pm
When you get there do not park next to the big fj62; it leaks diesel and it might splash it all over your fj40.

I hear the driver is also an idiot and might accidentally park it on the fj40. Whatever you do, don't mention the words Iraq or Guns and avoid bringing up the fact that he's not really African American; he might get on his soap box and never shut up . He also smells like bengay.

Post up pics of your fj40 when you get a chance.

Thanks looking forward to meeting y'all as well. It's been 10+ years but good to be back in the saddle.

Just pulled into Austin muffler on the eastside to get inspection. There is a sweet offwhite fj40 with roof rack, co2 parked across the street. Jealous.

Thought I was told 71 but says dec 70 not sure what rules area.

4 speed conversion on the floor. Powers steering upgrade(mini truck) but might do Saginaw was painful driving back from Denver. Walking all over the place.

I'm clueless if that will fix it but what I need to figure out.

Also "roll bar" is in sheet metal so need to figure that out.

Is it lifted? If so, you might need some shims which may help with the probelm
