Call if you need one of us to scout for parts or get parts for you.

Where and what time? I have to work, but I can always come and point fingers!

The PickNPull on Baseline Rd in LR has finally got most if not all their C4C cars processed now.

My situation is similar to Josh, so I can always tag along and point a few fingers as well.

:lmao: Good friggin' luck on that one. Not been to a junkyard lately, eh??? That would be like finding a Civic with a Dana 60 front :eek:


I'm pretty flexible on when. Either Wednesday about 3 or Thursday around noon. I'm willing to let ya'll do the picking.


Josh, you say they're processed? As in in the yard or out of the yard?

Out in the yard on jack stands with the fluids drained, batteries removed, etc ready for the picking!

Awesome! Processed and ready to get picked!

For the FJ? Doubt you'll find one. http://car-part.com might help you find it faster.

Luke, I doubt you'll find any FJ parts in a junkyard... ever :(

Nice havin' a 25 year old vehicle :D

We haven't seen any in the yards around here. And we've been hittin' 'em pretty hard lately.

Any one down for Thursday about 8AM at the PnP Baseline Rd.???

Most newer totaled vehicles get bought at insurance auctions by places like http://www.linnsauto.com/ for rebuilders or other fancy junkyards that dismantle and inventory every part (and don't allow you on in the yard).

As a matter of fact, Linn's has a totaled FJC now, for the low low price of $8900. :D

If you are serious about a spare, I'd start lurking over on http://www.fjcruiserforums.com/forums/ and watching the classifieds if you haven't already.

That sucks. Linns won't sell you a part you gotta buy the whole thing.

Zack, I just spoke with Marlin, he said the output shaft would have to be changed to put the adapter on your 2wd transmission.

I wonder though if he heard me say it was a pre runner :confused:

I've got one in Fayetteville, Josh. I'll sell it chiggity cheap cheap!



Good day at the junkyards.

Much to our surprise, we found a crunched up FJC in the corner of a yard we visited. I'm trying to think which yard it was... It had the roof rack ya wanted, Luke. I got their number - 501/470-XXXX. I can't remember his name...

yaker
12-20-2009, 07:39 AM
Right on, thanks man. I'll hit them up.

Jordan7118
12-20-2009, 11:38 AM
I must confess, Luke, that we did NOT find a FJC. That is Sean's number...

:o

Wish I had found something for ya. Just not likely at all to find an FJC in a junkyard.

You got my hopes up for nothing.:flipoff1: Oh well I think I'm gonna get a Yakima.

Well, I'm glad you're not too mad at me. I apologize. That was pretty cruel :o

A Yakima rack will look better in my opinion anyway.
