In dash controller for air up/down system
Tire air up/down system
Custom designed and built system combines electric air solenoid valves, an in-dash switch and digital pressure gauge. Air is plumbed to air chucks at all 4 corners then via 4 short air hoses to the wheels using all high flow quick connectors. System is controlled from the comfort of driver’s seat to air up or down. All 4 tires end up at the exact same pressure.
Interior:
I bought the truck without the under-hood air conditioning system. Missing components were replaced with new - 2014. AC worked great but needs a recharge at the moment.
Scion XB seats in excellent shape - cloth, deep bolsters that really hold you in the seat!
Carpets are in ok functional shape
All floors were Rhino lined by the previous owner,
Rear seat and seatbelts deleted, carpeted platform added: storage underneath for spare driveshafts, tie/relay rod, axle shafts keeping that weight down low. Top of the platform has tie-down points to secure tool, spare parts and recovery gear boxes
Cargo side panels replaced with plywood panels with access doors.

A pillar grab handles
Rearview mirror mount for handheld HAM or CB radios
Turn signal/wiper steering column assembly replaced with one from a mini-truck in order to upgrade to an intermittent wiper switch
Aux fuse panel for interior electronics mounted in glove box
The Bad:
Springs are very flexy, which is great for getting the axles all twisted up in the rocks but can lead to lots of body roll in off camber situations.
Holes in transmission hump for the twin stick shifters are not sealed up well enough.
Hole in transmission hump for ToyBox shifter should be made a bit larger.
Transfer case fill plug hole has partially stripped threads. I have been using an expandable rubber stopper without any leak issues.
Some ripples and shallow dents in the body from previous wheeling.
Extras:
I will include all of the FJ60 specific spare parts that I have here.
