For Sale (WTB) 70 series crawler. Built or project. Anything out there? (1 Viewer)

I've got a stupid idea in my head about building a 70 series crawler on 40's or 42's. Anyone have a good candidate for this type of build? FRP top is a plus. Partial or full trades considered for my 1990 LJ70.

You selling it Joe or just showing it off. Either way super cool Reg

Yes. Something like that. Only i want to use 80 series axles and 40's or 42's. And i also need a not so clean body. I've already got my built 80 on 37's . The 70 would be abused a lot more. A trailer queen of sorts. I've considering doing a 1uz swap,twin case on my Lj70 and cutting it up but its more than i want to mess with at this point.

Every cruiser I own is for sale
Long list of modifications on it and complete Toyota drivetrain , this was not a cheap build .I have around 35k invested in it in parts not including labor.

I am running 80 series axles on it with 5.29 gears and the elockers are converted to cable lockers. Front custom 3 link and rear 4 link, stretched the wheelbase and cut up the crusty wheelwells and welded in new sheetmetal matching the extended wheelbase. 1HDT mated to a new R151 with split case and 4:1 crawler gears.

I can drive it to the local pub and take it on most trails in the weekends

What size tires? 40's i assume with that gearing?

Got a picture of the LJ you can send to me? I might have a BJ70 coming available after a wreck.
