Rear Sill and cover replacement (2 Viewers)

[KenRN]

Any tips for replacing the rear sill and floor on a '78 FJ40?
I am shopping for a replacement and wonder about the quality of replacement parts out there.
Thanks, Ken RN

I have used Real Steel parts on 3 rigs now. Good quality and customer service if needed.

Get the ‘C’ channel also, chances are it’s in as bad as shape as the sill cover. Also note there is a difference in years….earlier models hade a doifferent tube radius in the fenders…specifically the ‘C’ channel. Meade twice, cut once.

What year sill? If the style up to 1/79 was the back stepped in for where the floor is folded over and run half way down the back just like factory?

I used the sill cover from CCOT for my 73 and was pleased with it. On a recommendation posted here when I was looking I ended up using a piece of square tubing for the sill, it was strong and cheap and required very little in the way of cutting and drilling.
