Hi, I am working on building a 1972 FJ with a chevy 350/700r4/ 3 inch suspention lift and a 2 inch body lift. I'm am having problems figuring out what all has been done to it. In my attempts to repair things on it, I have run into problems. I was wondering if someone could tell me what year axle i have in the front end of my fj? I am going to try to post some pics of it to try to help. I think that it may be a mini truck but not sure. The studs are a little over 2 inches apart on the knuckles, and it has disk brakes. I have looked at the FAQ section that's how i came up to this conclusion but still not sure. Any help greatly appreciated.

I thought I would show a few pics of my FJ. The first 2 are before the 2 inch body lift was added and the last one was after. I could not find my pictures from when I first bought it but I will keep lokeng and post them later.

Found out my front end is a mini truck front axel. Thanks for all the help on the FAQ search section.

Take one of the nuts holding the arm on, OFF. Go to hardware store and find the metric bolt that fits it. The diameter will give you a good idea of what pattern you have. I will look around see which size fits small/large pattern.... but someone may have a memory jog and chime in before I find that post.



Never mind, you figured it out.
