The Project:
DJ’s FJ-40 Cruiser Build
The Build:
DJ’s FJ-40 Land Cruiser was a already nice rig when he dropped it off at WFO. It had a TBI Chevy 350, NV4500, and was sprung over on Cruiser axles. However, it was time to ditch some of the old stuff and install some new! In the rear, we installed a Truhi 9 with WFO 4 link and TJ coils. We installed a D60 in the front. We also backed up DJ’s 350 with a monster 700r4 and Atlas transfer case.

Jeff´s FJ-40 Running Gear
The Build:
Jeff´s stock FJ-40 Land Cruiser running gear was just not holding anymore. When the FJ-40 came to us, it had: TBI Chevy 350; SM420; Crawl Box; Cruiser T-Case; and built Cruiser axles on leaf springs. After many years of running the Rubicon Jeff´s running gear was proving to be the weak link. Jeff had already scored some great deals on some rebuilt coil overs, an Atlas 4 speed, and a Chevy D60 & 14 bolt combo. After we built the axles, Jeff decided to have us link up both the front and rear. We also installed a Turbo 400 with his newly acquired Atlas 4 speed. When we were finished, this ended up being a full body linked Cruiser with full hydro steer.

Steve’s FJ-40 was one of the cleanest we had ever seen. The only thing it was missing was an LS engine! We turned this classic into a Sleeper with a 5.3 and Vintage Air AC.
