Proffitt’s Resurrection Land Cruisers<\/a> (PRLC) specializes in building classic Land Cruisers at their company in Orchard City, Colorado. This 1969 Toyota FJ40 was sent to them to receive their Stage 3 restoration along with a new diesel engine.<\/p>\n

\"1969<\/a><\/p>\n

The FJ40 is now powered by a Cummins R2.8 turbo diesel inline-four. These motors produces around 161 horsepower and 310 lb-ft (420 Nm) of torque in factory spec. PRLC paired the motor to a Toyota H55F five-speed manual transmission which sends power to a 38 mm split transfer case and out to ARB locking differentials. <\/p>\n

The SUV rides on an Old Man Emu 2.5-inch lifted suspension with Bilstein 5100 series shocks, Saginaw power steering, and PRLC suspension shackle reversal. A set of black steel wheels with Maxxis 33X10.50 Razr MT tires cover disc brakes in front and rear. <\/p>\n
