Love that retro surf green landcruiser. One of the best builds and episodes Ive seen on this channel. I cant think of any better shop to restore and engineer a vintage landcruiser. I wish Jeremiah would partner wity Toyota to reissue these old landcruisers but with a longer wheelbase. I believe its called Fj44 when a 40 is stretched out but could be mistaken. Keep up the great work Jeremiah.
We get our radiators from several different manufacturers. If we need a really high end radiator, we get them from Radiator Supply House. "Be Cool" Otherwise, we get the from Griffin or Dewitt.
I wish I had that shifter in my 60 then maybe it wouldn't have gotten stolen. Of course it would have needed an automatic too. I thought a manual tranny would be a deterrent but unfortunately, no.
@@procruiserthat answered my question too. My best guess was “Sea Foam” which was a color only on the 1970 fj40 only the one year. Memorable because Sea Foam is a close match to the color in use by border patrol for years.
Jeremiah, love your tech tip videos, keep them going. I bought a fj40 new, it’s a 74, when I parked it last it had over 408k on it, 20 years ago. I’m a little older now but this project is bringing back all the fun years I had with it. I do want to replace the brakes with disc’s on all 4’s. So I’m replacing them with a JT Outfitters kit (GM calipers). Question: is a 3.75 back space what I need in the 15” wheel to clear the caliper. Thanks for any info you can help me with.
Hi Terry. What a cool story. You and your cruiser must be old friends for sure. We don't use the JT kit in the front in favor of OEM disc brakes., but I bet most 15" wheels with a 3.75" backspace will clear them. We do use the JT style brackets and calipers in the rear and 3.75 wheels clear.

Jeremiah, quick question: 74 fj40 pre load for a 15”wheel with 31x10.5 tire?
