Thank you for looking at my FJ40. I have owned this truck for 17 years, and have many fond memories in it. As I have grown older my priorities have changed, and I find that I no longer use the truck as it should be used. I realize that buying anything over the internet is a risky thing to do, so I will try to be as honest as possible about the condition of the truck. It is my goal that if you buy it, you have no surprises as to what you purchased. All of the mechanical updating was performed by professionals, and was done over ten years ago. Since then I have put maybe 5,000 miles on the truck. -Rebuilt Head(Up and Over Innovations) 2001 -Webber Performance Carburetor (SOR) 2001 -Performance Camshaft (SOR) 2001 -Performance Header (SOR) 2001 -Full custom Exhaust (Mighty Muffler) 2001 -Rebuilt Transmission /4 Speed (Up and Over Innovations) 2001 -Rebuilt Transfer Case (Up and Over Innovations) 2001 -Brakes Redone (New Wheel Cylinders & Pads) 2014 -Truck Completely Rewired (Keystone Electric) 2001 -Recaro seats that were 2,000 when new -Stereo with older amp and 2 subwoofer speaker boxes (sub speakers are blown) -Stereo has CD/AUX input and 4 speakers -New Front Fenders and Bib (2001) -Newer Alternator and Belts (2005) -Newer Master and Slave Cylinders (2005) -New Clutch (SOR) 2012 -Mickey Thompson Classic 2 Aluminum Rims -Tan Soft Top and Doors (SOR) 2001 　 The Body was Redone in 1982, and an all aluminum floor was installed. It is from the front floor in the cab to the rear of the truck, it was done professionally and the welds are nice. The body panels were then bolted to the Aluminum floor because you cannot weld two different metals. The body panels will need to be replaced (rocker, quarter panel, rear sill). What is on the body panels of the tub is bondo, and it is beginning to rust and crack. The Hood of the truck also has small dents and two spots in the front that appear to be rusted, but are actually a crack in the metal. The windshield is rusted on the inner bottom and will need to be replaced. I say need to be replaced meaning that if you want a show truck they are too far gone, but they are fine for a driver. The steering wheel has play due to the steering box needing replacement. The frame as you can see from the pictures is in fairly good shape. The bottom of the main frame rail on the left side forward of the leaf spring was rusted out, and a patch of metal was installed. You can also see that the bottom of the main channels have had rust in them at some time as they are raised, and not flat as they would have been from the factory. Tires are starting to show slight Dry-Rot cracking in between tread, tread is 90%. The truck is mechanically very strong and has never given me any problems. The motor runs great and performs well. I honestly would not hesitate to drive the truck anywhere. If you have any questions please ask. Like I said, I don’t really need to sell the truck, and honestly want the buyer to be happy and know what they are getting.
