DOM tube arrived today.  1 1/2 x .0120  Hope to get some time to start working on it again.

I got some ambition over the last week and started working on this project again. I got the frame welded together,  Motor mounted and the front suspension kinda rigged in. No steering or shocks yet.  I have a set of Monroe air shocks but thinking of going with 125 Lb spring coil over shocks.

Frame got heavier than I thought, should have went with 0.093 or 0.063 DOM instead of 1 1/2 x 0.120

Good progress.

Have you thought about the need to back up?
1) Free Owners Manual download: https://tinyurl.com/fmsz7hk9
2) Don't store your FJ with E10 fuel https://tinyurl.com/3cjrfct5
3) Replace your old stock rubber brake lines.
4) Important items for the '84-87 FJ's:
Safety wire: https://tinyurl.com/99zp8ufh

Reverse would be a nice option but I will be more than happy when I get it drivable forward.
