Power Steering Conversion
Power steering Conversion I decided to convert the FJ40 to power steering in line with modern driving norms and to introduce some safety into the steering system as 1971 FJ40s have a one piece steering column running directly off the steering box with no impact absorbing properties in the event of an accident. This is being converted to a collapsing rod/column design sourced with 55/60/75 series components and mated to the chassis with a McKinnons Cruisers 60 series power steering box. The components The original column, steering box, riveted box perch, tie rod, pivot and steering arms were. The McKinnon mounting kit and 60 series power steering box were attached McKinnons Cruisers shock tower kit to clear the new steering geometry HZJ75 OEM lines were massaged and secured between the 40 chassis rails
