Tube FJ40

I am going to cut the rear off the 40 and tube the whole rear end. Might be cut from the firewall back or just behind the seats

So it will be tube cage and tube rear end.
I have some pics from searching the net but I want more
If anyone one has some good ideas or some pics in their PC 'library' can you send them to me ?
Thanks
Dan

I deleted your PM before I could respond and then couldn't remember who sent it
Can you resend it ?
Or what did you want to know ?

I was at M&M engineering At windsor last week and they are building one for a customer. All they have used is the firewall of a 40 and tubed the front and back, looks really tuff.
