Anyone interested in trading a stock 60 housing for one that is cut and turned??

Actually, I will cut and turn it to your specs and you send me your old housing and steering linkage (you will need hysteer anyway with a SO ;) )

I have one Jason. Just hold your horses, it is out at Sunray getting the knuckles swapped into an FJ40 and when I get the housing back it is yours.

Been in Colorado for the last week.


I am going to Wisconsin in late july to see EAA and pick up a 86 FJ60 that has been bobbed. I finally get to start my own family hauler buildup.

I have a rear axle and a front FJ60 housing/shafts that is cut but not turned yet. The 60 that I am getting has been trimmed for at least 33's with the stock suspension. And has waggoneer springs in the rear set up for a SO. So.. Starting in August I am going to start the thread on my family hauler.

:D



Orrr, were you wondering if I wanted you housing Mark??? lol

Yup. Got one spare housing sitting out front. Stripped but straight and stock. Needs a home, and I thought I'd take yours in case I decided to do a SOA on my 60 in a year or two from now. Not saying that I would, but I also left a 40 housing with Simon a few months ago for a cut and turn as well, just in case I run out of projects to do. :shaking:

I like having options. :D

Reminds me of a quote from Schopenhauer that we buy books with the mistaken idea that we are also buying the time to read them!

I have a copy of the illad and oddesy sitting on my nightstand...

By the time I read through them entirely I am sure that I will have forgotten to homer was :D


BTW, the 60 that I am building will be more along the lines of your expedition type wheelin and less "hardcore"..

Hey does anyone know if donating parts to the REAL "Family Hauler" is tax deductible? :D How could anyone call a 40 series a "Family Hauler"? :flipoff2:

Jason, you should save your time and money and buy this shell for your family hauler. Rust free! No powertrain or lower gate, and Im keeping the axles and springs. $1200 for the complete body, negotiable. :)

Already getting the replacement Mark. And I can't beat the price...

There is a bit of work to still do but it won't take much to be a runner...
