hi guys my name is DAN and i live in B.C. Canada i've been on the website before but not since a long time so i thought i would start new again So i have a 1974 fj 40 i bought it was pretty much stock except for shackels or something crazy i have owned it twice now in the past 6 years wgen originally had it i swapped in a small block and put some 32 inch tires on it then sold it cause i was in need of money i then bought it back within 6 months for 500 beans less and found out that the old owner was an idiot and ruined the wiring harness by adding all sorts of crap and wiring it all in white wires everything was white so i swapped in a new harness and it was almost back to normal so my next upgrade was an EZ LOCKER i drove it with that for probably 6 months then came the big money it had drums alll around so i swapped truck knuckles and birfs on it and added vented discs i also put discs on the rear at the same time i did a springover and had the front axle cut and turned to get caster i also added power steering a full detroit for the rear and a set of 35 12.50 15 ssr and an 8274 up front later on i sold the tires and added 35 14.50 15 boggers i now have it off the road and i am upgrading it to my newly purchased ROCK BOX with a SM 420 and twin sticking it adding a new floor building some tube front fenders addind a TBI system and hopefully a 3 or 4 link in the rear anyways i have blah blahed too long so bye

cool! another newbie from the Rock! welcome...
you wouldn't happen to be the guy I bought a camo hard top off of a few years ago up in courtney would you? I had an ugly ass checkerplate half cab thing, since rebuilt into something that looks more like a cruiser....
cheers,
