Wow KM2s look nice on your cruiser.
Picked up Mr. Red yesterday. Doesn't run and appears to have been sitting a long time. Spent most of the day doing the after purchase inspection and making a list of stuff needed to at least get it roadworthy. Found out motor was a little locked up. Pulled the plugs and used a couple of cans of penetrating oil in the cylinders, to see if they will free up. Crossing my fingers!
what are those rims? did you have any backspace issues?
Not sure what brand they are? They came with it when I got it. I just painted them flat black. No backspace issues at all. But I'm 4 wheel drum still. Not sure when I go disc if they will fit?
What I did this week
Passed CA smog, and finally installed new rear door lock.

And made this thermos bj44 worthy. Gotta love being able to stick my coffee anywhere on the interior or exterior of the truck. It sits right on the floor behind and to the left of the gear shift. I done' even have to look down to find the right spot.....

Mounted up my new wheels and tires. Probably going to paint the rings black to give it the appearance of a small looking wheel.

Removed the metal covering up the rust on the driver side. Got the oil sending unit working. Was gonna do a engine flush but can't now. Took it down over the hill behind the shop and can't make it back up the hill. Looks like the front diff is locked or the transfer case is messed up. Rear wheel work okay. Will drag it back to the shop with the tractor when the wife gets home. I just bought this rig last week and it looks like its gonna need lots of love....lol.
Half Ambulance Doors
I've seen this done before. I wanted to put the topper on for hunting ducks this winter but love my doors from earlier fj40 when I take the top off.........Therefore I had to cut a set of ambulance doors in half to accomodate.
Still have to mount lower hinges on topper.
Also installed exhaust manifold.
No more leaks!! Previous knucklehead owner put headers on the 40.
They were loud, leaked, and ran terrible on cold mornings. Taking it down this afternoon to have a Y put in and tie into dual exhaust.
Rebuild rear bumber, installed tail lights and CB radio, moved license plate over to passenger side so I could put back on my spare tire carrier with the lower doors!

I saw those pictures on bringatrailer.com.
The vitriolic comments on that BaT post made me LOL. If they only knew....
Any more for sale dude ???
Awesome job on the doors, man! Did you happen to take pictures while in the process? I've seen lots of threads asking about this mod. Would be great if you could start a separate thread and share!
Thanks!
Tires and wheels look great!
