@Voodoocruisers - did you have to add some matt to tone down how shiny most modern paints are? That looks period correct - which is not easy to do with modern paint. Well done!

It's been a few years, here's a fresh picture.

@cruiserkev - nice rig! Can you guess that we’re going to ask how much a lift and wheel/tire size combination?

Nice photo arrangement. Frame/postcard worthy!

Thanks! It's a 4 inch HFS spring lift with slightly longer than stock shackles. 35x12.50 Procomp X terrains on some old Toyota white spoke rims. I was told the rims came off an FJ60 but haven't ever seen a set like them mounted on a 60 series before.

@JeffD - color and wheel/tire size?

She looks ready for some serious trail use.

@Baja73 - I was slacking this morning. Thanks for asking the follow-on question.

We should make this a standard report along with the pictures of these well done rigs

4” lift, not sure what brand. 32” BFG KM3’s on widened steelies. Color is Anthracite gray from mtn spray paints. Looks lighter in that pic, making me want to repaint in a lighter shade? Also took the hubcaps off, like the simple look for now.

Mostly Krylon Hunter Green,

Thanks, Jeff. Yours looks good (and "down to Earth"). And seems you're making good use of yours - as it's truly intended for.

Looking at this now, I think it'll look strange with the hubcaps on it.

Is that rig the stock green that is sometimes referred to as John Deere green? I've never seen many FJ40s that color. Is it a rare color?
