Like it, hope we get to go soon and put her through the moves like we have to mine.
I think the only thing wrong with your post jim is the word "SOON" LOL I showed Tagalonggal the sweet rig today for the first time... She agrees that the paint is the last thing I have to think about. LOL |

Ive had a few guys tell me that they make an adptor kit to that allows a SBC to bolt right in to the fj55 using the stock tranny... Has any one here had any experience with and adpator kit like that?

Give these guys a shot https://eshop.advanceadapters.com/commerce/index.jsp?czuid=1219122681809 I believe they can custom make a special adapter if needed. |

Why would you want to keep the stock tranny?  |

Im not sure I would want it? Im thinking about a wrecked Blazer or something that I could use the complete running gear and motor out of. Maybe an automatic?

I wonder how the wheelbase compares between the two? Does that this have a frame or is it unibody?
Old 4x Suburbans are cheap. Shorten the frame and the drivetrain is pretty much done.
