fj 40 spring perches
« on: Apr 09, 2007, 08:08:37 PM »
anybody know how far apart the front spring perches are on a fj40? are they the same as the mini truck front axles?

Nope Landcruisers are set narrower, I had to outboard my front spring hangers on the frame to use mini axles on my Cruzah. On the back I just moved the perches on the axle as the mini rear end has a centered diff.
