The FJ40, as long as I can make sure the transfer case is working properly. Thats really the only thing it needs that is significant. Could just be the linage. But if it is more than that then I am putting an Orion in there.Have you decided what to bring yet ?
Got the FJ40 running right. Taking it out to Hollister Hills in the next couple of weeks to make sure everything is functioning as it should be. Also got the front bumper and winch installed on the 85' pickup.

That Mini.... Oi, shes a beaut... All due respect to the 40 of course.
Why would you need it re-geared and locked to do the rubicon? For ease of travel?Nice FJ40 and pickup . If I can get my 40 regeared and locked, I'm taking it. If not, sticking to my fj cruiser.

My FJ40 has open diffs, compared to my fj cruiser (4,88's locked front and rear) it doesn't crawl as nice, and it spins way more. Who knows, maybe I'll still take it. LolWhy would you need it re-geared and locked to do the rubicon? For ease of travel?
There is a guy who posts videos on YouTube named Stan Fuller. Its a group of people who run many of the tough trails in old Willys Jeeps. Very basic vehicles (for the most part). I enjoy watching videos that go on that level. There was time when people did amazing things without the gadgets. I appreciate the simple videos as much as I enjoy the crazy buggies running Sand Hollow.My FJ40 has open diffs, compared to my fj cruiser (4,88's locked front and rear) it doesn't crawl as nice, and it spins way more.

Totally agree. Part of the fun and experience is the challenge. Running a trail on 42s geared and locked, anyone could do. But open diffs and 33s or 35s makes for much better campfire stories. There is an old saying, (i am making up as i am writing) those with s***ty campfire stories are no fun. And i want a lot of great stories to tell my grandkids.There is a guy who posts videos on YouTube named Stan Fuller. Its a group of people who run many of the tough trails in old Willys Jeeps.
