New to me 1987 BJ74. Are these rims standard on this year model 74?

I used a piece of 4" donor pipe for the collector around the flange.

I may have a 4"----> 3" lower section in the materials bin. Then you only need the flange and some ⚒ time/dolly to fit and shape.

I need to do this too. Thinking I'd remove the door for access??? Then I wouldn't have to get under the fender?

Yes, I think that will work.
I'll look again later tonight.

So as far as we know there could be a Buick in your driveway.

Quick trip to the beach, Freeman Park, with the fam. Camel (the doggie) is so much happier now in the troopy.

Jonnyz,
I think the hardest part of your plan is going to be the grommet for the antenna's coaxial cable.
Small hands will make it easier.

Grommet is top center.

I welded more attachment tabs, replacing rusted mess.

I wasted lots of time struggling to disconnect the hard line from the clutch master cylinder. Even though I used a flare wrench the flare nut rounded off. I had to remove the brake MC and booster just to get vise-grips in there.
After I got the thing apart I used a file to make the flare nut into a respectable 3/8" hexagon.

got the aluminum panel back from the powder coater and did the final install. Used self locking titanium aircraft fasteners to help reduce weight so it will go faster.

Later drove it to meet its new stablemate that I bought the wife. 2016 4Runner Trail Premium.

NanaMaru did you get a couple more pics of the converted 62? Curious about how the bed was done. Some pretty neat rigs there.

You've got to like that "Star Wars Storm Trooper face" on the new 4Runner.

 

[WanderinWhitlows]

It does look aggressive.

Put the new plates on the Land Cruiser.
