Well, I traded the trusty ole CJ for a 74 Toyota FJ 40.
I got her home and started tearing her down for some work.

Engine build sheet shows est 225hp on propane. Transmission is a TH350 connected to a topshift toy t-case from a truck with a downey 5in adapter.
Other miscellaneous goodies that came with the deal.
This thing is clean...you did make out like a bandit on that deal.
Is this temporary-just waiting on a heim, or did the po expect the bolt through the tube to be enough?

Ok, on the radius arm, the bushing and the middle heim are for the top. The heim is 1/2". Is this going to be too small for the top link?
run bushings at all points except the end that mounts to the frame. It is a waste to run them at other points, rotation isn't possible
...
they came with the trade and too much of a joo to buy some bushings. will they survive?
they'll wear out. bushings are cheaper than replacement heims.
