Anyone have the factory measurements for pre 79 FJ40's? I'm gonig to get a steel fabrication factory to make the pieces so I may weld them all together to make a complete tub. I hope you guys can help me out here. I don't have a cruiser to take measurements off of. Thanks.

Ahhhh, which are you looking for? If you are fabbing a tub, maybe a visit to someone in your area would eliminate any error in points to measure from... Just a suggestion, fabbing a tub from someone's measurements seems like a trusting undertaking...

You can measure my tub if you wanna drive to Atl. I want to do the same thing on my other project- Do you have a steel fab shop in mind? Any Idea about cost?

yea - about $300 for the whole tub but you have to weld it yourself. Don't quote me but it's $300 or so around here

A shop is going to hand fabricate all the sections of an FJ40 steel tub, and that's going to run you just $300? Seems far fetched to me, think of the time needed just to make all the necessary measurements and calculations! If this is right, you're getting one heck of a deal...
