1981 Toyota FJ40 Land Cruiser - Modified Trail Rig Heavily modified
1981 FJ40 Land Cruiser built as a dedicated wheeling rig. This
vehicle carries a salvage title due to a low-speed rollover in the
1990s (per previous owner). It is not a restored cruiser, but a
capable and proven off-road build. The truck features a spring-over
lift, lockers, and a 4-speed transmission sourced from a Chevy
delivery truck. Suspension has been modified with FJ60 front
springs, pushing the front axle forward approximately 2 inches for
an altered wheelbase and improved approach. A custom-built full
roll cage and custom rock sliders add protection on the trail.
Power comes from the original 2F engine. The factory carburetor was
replaced with a Holley 2-barrel using a custom-fabricated adapter
plate and linkage. The engine runs well and performs reliably
off-road. The body has visible rust, and the hard top is tweaked
from the earlier rollover. The frame is solid with only surface
rust and no structural rot. The vehicle is currently on roller
tires and will need tires to be trail-ready. Includes the original
transmission and various spare parts. This FJ40 was used on a 3-day
wheeling trip last fall and performed flawlessly. Best suited for
someone looking for a ready-made trail rig rather than a
restoration project. Important Information - Please Read Before
