If anyone is looking from a great product from a great vendor, Lomusass is the MAN!!! I just received my newly made tailgate for my FJ45LWB truck. It is a work of art.

It was a little scary dealing with someone out of counrty like that, but he is very communicative, and does what he says he will.
 
So these would be same/better than OEM tubs? If so, how much would a 10/73 Drop Tailgate cost? Mine looks like swiss cheese... And uh, how much for shipping to 96821 Honolulu, Hawaii? The shipping is gonna be rediculous.
 
I make full door skins, and i can supply used/repaired..And i'll proberbly will someday make complete doors, but not yet..
Thanks .

Paul,

I have a customer in England looking for a complete tub (cowl,windshield frame, tub, front and rear doors, and side panels) for his 78 BJ40 RHD Diesel. Can help? Can you ship to him direct?
 
has anyone taken delivery of one of these tubs yet? they look great and from what reviews i have heard of the tailgates and other misc. parts, i am sure they are of the highest quality. but i want to hear from anyone who had received a complete tub - how is the fit? does it line up with the factory body mounts? cowl? door jambs? hardtop? also, how much extra effort was it to prep/paint the galvanized steel?

thanks!
 
My tub is currently is the USA getting cleared by customs. I plan to do a full report on it with photos etc.. It will be a while before I am ready to install it, but I'll try to get it lined up with my cowl and I'll let y'all know how the roll bar holes etc. line up.
 
Got mine. It is REALLY nice. Posted a review with lots of pics on the FJ-40 tech section. Let me know if you have any questions or want specific pictures or whatever. :grinpimp:

These ones here are not finished yet but you'll get the idea.

I must say I've enjoyed watching your progress here. Just looking at your tubs has giving me some more insight on repairing and reconstructing mine.

Your doors are fantastic. I hope I can budget a set. What about a canvas window?... or are these strickly used as is? Nice progress I'm looking forward to seeing more of your work. I just wish I could drive down and pickup a few bodies and doors to build a couple of trucks!
