Its OK, I can speak chinese. I'll translate for you;
"I built this cool snorkel but want to put doors on the 40 now (to keep the water out of the cab) and the snorkel is in the way!"
"... so figured out if I mod it a little, cut a new hole through the firewall, and ran the snorkel inside the roll cage I'll be able to fit doors again. Its all sweet now. Hooray!"

Re: bj40 build...
got the roof on and had to rivet the fibreglass back onto part of the steel framing.. also got both doors on to keep 95% of the wind/weather out.. workin windows and all.. heh..
being a rear mounted radiator and having a full roof can be a bit of an issue, so made up a clear pespex window and some alloy ducting to funnel outside air into radiator through the std window opening..

Re: bj40 build...
only gonna have a 37 blockin where the rear barn doors used to be so hopefully it'll remain a nice wee temperate zone for my asian orientated arse to reside.. moderate warm airflow around the cab and excess vent rearward.. sorta like rex..
Re: bj40 build...
you could plumb in a small heater core in the front of the cab for additional heat

Gunna put chicken wire (or something) in front of that window bud? Might stop SOME snow from falling in.
I recognize that yellow rear shell. Finally putting it to use huh. Good to see.

So have been using the fawdy for a while and it's still a fun junker. Thought I'd add a pic of the newly acquired treads.. Bit of flex testin with clearances to check.. 40's on the fawdy...
Re: bj40 build...
Love the sidewall tread on them comp treps... They look like the ones off a white 70 series that was on trademe?
Re: bj40 build...
Dont suppose you still have the original seats gathering dust somewhere?
Re: bj40 build...
The 40's looks awsome! Hows the running gear holding up?
There's gotta be some rocks round here SOMEWHERE!

Shit that's a cool looking cruiser, If only I had the winning lotto ticket.
Toyota Landcruiser FJ40, front and rear lockers, 35" simex.
Toyota FJ45 build in progress.
Tires are like boobs, they always look big until you have played with them for a while, then you just want a bigger set.

Re: bj40 build...
You should buy this CCS. You might even be able to some sort of deal with Nibz to swap the 37's it comes with.........
Ugly is a state of mind..... and the state of my truck!
