And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.

Articulation. Had a buddy burn out the clutch in one of these. And he did it way out in the backcountry, necessitating an epic rescue.
I love FJ40s also, and own an 87FJ60 myself. But that photo tells me this 40 has tires that are simply too large for his suspension, articulative or not. The right front is sitting on something that’s not very high, yet the left rear is rubbing the body.
I still have my 1967 FJ40. Keeps pushing snow around for me the past 21 years. Six cylinder but Metric....It got copied by the Japanese , smart folks. Wars suck!
I loved my FJ40.
ReplyDeleteI love FJ-40's and their brethren,that said,would do horrible things with it like 383/spring lift ect.
ReplyDeleteI did though hate the rear heater in middle of floor!
Burned out clutch? How about not riding it?
ReplyDelete4wd will get you stuck farther afield.

ReplyDeleteBiggest regret of my life was trading in my 74 FJ40. Had no choice at the time though.
