Well it's my first official post here on mud. I've looked through the forum for many years because my buddy has had a few 40's and 60's. now I got my first 60.
Out with the old....
1967 kaiser jeep m715 383stroker.
And in with the new.....
85' fj 60 SOA on 40" swampers original 2f with 118k on the ticker
So I'm sure I'll have a few questions coming up. This will be my family cruiser. I got rid of the M715 because my wife and I are now proud parents of identical twin boys!!! I feel that the 60 will be a rig that I can enjoy with the whole fam.
My first project is to figure out how to get rid of the squeaking coming from the rear. It looks like the previous owner added two leaves in the rear spring packs. The spring pins are not grease able but the bushings look to be ok. I might just take the packs apart, coat them with slip plate, and then put grease bolts in to see if that helps.
Anyway, glad to meet you all in cyber space. Help and suggestions are always welcome!!
