Dear folks, this time we're bringing in a very exciting project.. Fj40 Lc 1976 which is being restored completely with many new systems remodeling and to keep the excitement I won't be telling you everything at start... Everything will be slowly updated...

We're starting off from pulling the jeep in to parts and beginning with the frame restoration & painting all suspension parts and installation of new suspension parts.

Remover applied on the frame.
Then with the help of wire brushes and sand paper all the old paint was removed and metal was shining like new.

The updates would be abit slow because I don't get time often plus it's a long restoration with alot of fabrications and mods. And we are always working on multiple vehicles so the update gets a bit slow.. So pardon me if updates are slow.

Frame has been clinged wrapped so that it stays clean during the whole restoration project...

What is the price of a good 1uz or 2uz setup?

dani_kk (Dmotorsports) 2021-10-05 19:34:56 +0500 #16

With lc gear it's around 570-600k approximately.
And if you use any other gear then around 400-450k bracket.

For your purpose 5vzfe is a good option.
