: Crossed Up! FJ-40 Belly-pan and skid
CrossedUp 10-18-2006, 01:29 PM This is our new FJ-40 t-case and bellypan. It only has a 1/4'' of clearance between the top and the bottom of the parking brake drum. It is super-strong, light, and really clean!

wngrog 10-18-2006, 01:41 PM What is the drivetrain in that Cruiser? YOu need to check it with various stuff like SM420 to 3 sp case........
That is a VERY nice setup and the community has needed it for a long time. Thanks for stepping up.

It's for a factory drive-train, and we can make similar ones for other combinations
CrossedUp 10-18-2006, 01:48 PM Oh yah, look for it in the next issue of CRAWL rag!
fj40forlife 10-18-2006, 01:56 PM How much man. Looks strong
CrossedUp 10-18-2006, 01:58 PM It is strong!
It has runners going back and forth across the open areas on the top side, to keep it from caving in!
They run about $250
LC Hamma 10-18-2006, 02:14 PM Is there a rear parking brake drum above the skid? Can you remove the drum w/o having to lower the skid? :smokin:
nolan 10-18-2006, 02:15 PM sexy:smokin: .i think im going to look in to this for my rig.

There is, and I am pretty sure.
Call us! There are two sitting on the shelf, and parts to weld up for 3-4 more, 520-741-1580

CrossedUp 10-18-2006, 08:10 PM So who wants one? They are ready to mail!
green73 10-19-2006, 02:49 AM Gotta stick back some $ for this. I have few other items on my list ahead of it, but exactly what I have been looking for in drivetrain protection.
woooody 10-19-2006, 07:13 AM Coming to surf-n-turf?
Personally, I would suggest that you get one out for an sm420 3 spd xfer. That's sort of the default crawler set up. Not sure if you would actually need to change anything, as it looks like you would be long enough anyway. I'd just be concerned that the rear tubing would hit the xfer case.
rogersfj401969 10-19-2006, 07:39 AM what about the orin t-case, they stick down about 3/4" more then the stock t-case
CrossedUp 10-19-2006, 08:08 AM Give us a call, we can adjust the skid any which way you want.:grinpimp:
Advent Horizon 10-19-2006, 09:32 AM How much do they weigh, and have you tried fitting one to a rig with a PTO?
peesalot 10-19-2006, 10:01 AM Looks like FC's to me.
What exhaust clearance did you set it up for ? a pipe on the drivers side ?
CrossedUp 10-19-2006, 10:05 AM How much do they weigh, and have you tried fitting one to a rig with a PTO?
I would say 30lbs by my accurate method of picking it up :)
I have not tried it with a pto.
Flatty 10-19-2006, 10:38 AM Looks like FC's to me.

It does look like FC's. No offense to Crossed up, but I would prefer to support a long time supporter of the Cruiser guys... If I was to buy one, FC would get my $$$
However, ther are only so maky ways to skin a cat. This has been done a few times from lots of different people. It seems to be the best way to get the crossmember in there.

Who is FC? We built it for a customer named sean, and tom from crawl liked it, so we made one for him, and decided to make a few more for the shelves. Seans buildup is here in this forum.

FC is on this board. He has been building cruisers longer than most of us have been alive...

CrossedUp 10-19-2006, 12:08 PM cool, well great minds think alike?
Advent Horizon 10-19-2006, 02:03 PM I think to do the PTO you'd have to have both sides symmetrical.
Combine that with the Orion clearance, and I'll order one as soon as some of my unused parts sell! :D
bigheadfj40 10-19-2006, 06:38 PM any idea what shipping might cost to get it out to CA? 95826? I just might have to order one after Christmas, as a present for me :D
orangefj45 10-20-2006, 05:28 AM what thickness is that skid plate material?
CrossedUp 10-20-2006, 10:31 AM what thickness is that skid plate material?
3/16's thick.
