Made an appointment to get my new tires mounted on OEM rims (Came in yesterday=I have to take the rims over and then bring them home to put on the FJ40=then it goes to the shop for work to get it running). Mounted driver's seat with new bracket and installed new seat belts!
 
Cheeeeeeeaaaaap “A/C“.

Threw on some “seat covers” that pump air. These things circulate air to your rear end and back. They work better than I than I thought they would. Easy to install for summer days, and removed for colder seasons (if you wish).

Love it! I told my girls that I was putting the a/c on high yesterday and showed them how to open the rear windows :happy:. Love your center console too👍
 
Got the axles out. Will be swapping in some from a '78. Rust converting the frame as well today.

Me too, it’s not mine. Someday…
I’d be happy to have one like that to borrow occasionally. I’ll be lucky if I can get enough other projects out of the way to get my 40 into the garage.
 
Slowly rebuilding front axle. Removing rotor from wheel hub. Used a lead hammer to beat the hub off the rotor. I realized after 3-4 hits that the hub was deforming from the lead hammer blows so I stopped that method. I used some wedges between the hub and rotor and finally separated the two. Then I had to skim cut the hub's seal bore to allow for a new seal to go in without deforming itself to the deformed hub.
