[Cordy1999]

Hi guys my name is Cordell
I have recently purchased a 40 series and I’m just wondering have any put an 80 series chassis under there fj and if so what were some of the problems and what sort of modifications did you have to make everything work and sit right.

Hello !
I got a 1976 FJ40 and I was wondering how complicated it would be to convert it with a power steering ?
Also, I'm having a hard time finding "original" parts for it (ex. most distributors sold are electronic), and it would be very helpful if you could tell me some good sites where I could order parts. I'm trying to keep it original (except for a possible power steering).
Thank you for your help ! This is my first restoration project so I could really use some knowledge from people like you...
