here we go again
 

So ... well that just opened up a big can pf worms cause now other sh$%$#! just wont do.

New suspension
New rebuilt GM 5 Speed NV4500 (found another one)
New 84 Toyota split case (found another one)
New Dakota Digital dash
New saginaw steering setup

Oh boy, and whats ridiculous is I was going to sell this one and now I'm at a total loss on which one I'm going to keep

Anyway, one of these will be sold and either way both are going to be awesome and completely different

I'll make this thread into a double 40 build now cause some of you may be interested in this Diesel build

Cheers
Steve

Nice! That's going to be an awesome drivetrain in a FJ. It had crossed my mind on our build, but after the TDi fiasco and dealing with our A7, I dare not mention diesel around here for a while...


Jeff-

Steve we are here for you ...we love you and, need you to realize you have a problem...

btw bought me a brand new Silverado which could use a hwy run ...hint hint lol

OH NO something else for you to have done before me. :rolleyes:

Steve, I LOVE the diesel idea. I think that would make the fj so much more fun to drive, and that’s a GREAT price on that Cummins crate kit with all of those extras!

WOW! That one you rebuilt 6 years is really nice. Would love to have that. Can't wait to see the progress on both of them.

LMAO !! Wayne your too funny

Thanks everyone ...

Update
Finally after 2 months I was able to order the wheels last night, they sell out fast
Waiting to hear from Cummins about the motor delivery
Custom rear seat arrived

Hope to get started soon

Scott, hope everything arrived without issue ?

Steve

Been a while since I've read the updates and now there's a diesel build going on lol. Badass, keep the project juices flowing. Im digging that cummins setup

It's funny how these hobbies intermix.

I've done quite a few 4x4's... currently building my daughter a Jeep YJ, with Dana 60's, a hopped up L33, paddle shifted built 4L60E and a Dana 300 with stuff. Stretching the wheel base and painting it Orange like Momma's CJ7. That also has stuff ;).

Yes sir, arrived yesterday, opened tonight. Thanks again!
