like i said i have faith in driver ability vs. the name of your tires. trust me this is the first rig that i have owned with the ability to turn 35's.........even i have my doubts on having tires that big on a cruiser. not that i haven't seen it before just never had the experience. i have only had 33's on most of my rigs.

that truck will surprise you just watch, and you will be a better driver for it.
 
My Fj-60 and bj-40

I had to sell this BJ-40 when I moved back to the states 3 years ago. Sold for $3000. It was a 1982 and everything workd great. The FJ-60 is back home in bayou country.

it's gonna be hella fun. your gonna do a trail that is kinda cute and hilly to get the feel of the vehicle then it will be on. we will take in steps. by saturday we will be pushing it a bit or at least i know i will.

learn your vehicles trail manners and limits without lockers is key i find so the next time you will be even more comfortable.


Right on man.....funny thing is folks who have never wheeled before get rigs with lockers & never learn to bump over or crawl a rock slowly seeing what the rig will do in stock form.

Lookin forward to wheelin with yawl........
 
This is my fj-60 and my friend I met on the trail. His 60 (pictured left) is Steve's. He later intoduced me to Marve Specter aka SOR.com. We had something in common. Awesome California guys. My daughter Zaya is getting in on the action.

Awesome pic bud, the rigs look great. :)
 
Still Need to mount turn signals, Ordered some LED turnsignals should be coming in in the next few days.

From the side you can see an unexpected problem I am having, either the bumper, or my belly, is sticking out to far for me to reech the center of the hood to take it off the hood prop, I have to stand on the side of the truck :frown:

And here you can see where I had to trim the grill to clear the winch.

Still not wired, going to pick up a marine battery and have a dedicated set of terminals for the winch, and relocate the solenoid under the hood.

Looking good bud, you'll get use to the prop rod just wait till you put 37's on it and you'll need a step ladder. :lol: Now some black spray paint on the silver fender and you'll be gellin. :D

I am actually going to lowes after while and buying a folding aluminum platform to stand on when I work on it, been using a two step ladder but it is mighty rickety. After I get the Winch wired up I am going to start on some kind of tie downs in the bed to hold all my jacks, Fire Extinguisher, spare, tool box, and everything else from sliding around like it was @ paradise. While the winch was riding around in the back I had to make a few panic stops, I thought the whinch was coming to meet me in the front seat.

And I thought my silver fender added character :rolleyes:. Thinking about it while I am at O'reillies buying the batteries after while picking up a couple cans of flat black.

Also I am probably going to take the Sawzall to some of the sheet metal behind the bumper, it is not supporting anything, and it hangs lower than the bumper so it would probably just get bent up anyway.

Very nice. I'd definitely like to find the time for in-cab winch controls myself! Larry has that and it comes in handy.

If I have time after doing everythign else I am goign to wire that in, otherwise I am just going to snake the remote to where it ends up in the glove box.
