Pictures from today of some of our baby coffea plants we planted let last year.

Looking good with some nice growth. What elevation is your farm at?

Looking good with some nice growth. What elevation is your farm at?

Thanks! It's 3,100ft.

 

[Ctenosaurian]

Nice, I am a herpetologist, at that is a really good elevation for reptiles and amphibians. I haven't been to that part of Honduras yet.

 

[The Jade Bean]

You'll have to come visit next year when we're there! There are loads of very large iguanas, but I'm still unfamiliar with other reptile life there. -Daniel Kent

 

[Ctenosaurian]

That would be great!

Since I don't partake in the Book of Faces, how can I order? PayPal? Always looking for good coffee.

 

[The Jade Bean]

Well sadly KLF we have limited supply right now so I use what we have for promotion and contacts. Sorry!!

 

[The Jade Bean]

Bought this for Pepe...

 

[The Jade Bean]

Got the topper in and did a test fit. Having the front window replaced Friday, so after that I'll work on remounting the snorkel.

Don't use Decavo's installer.

What seal do you have on there right now? I have seen that seal overseas that eliminates the factory trim

 

[The Jade Bean]

The installer said he would just use the clips and put back the factory trim. Where can I get an alternative?

 

[The Jade Bean]

It still has the chrome trip and looks like it's never been removed.

 

[PhrogsPhorever]

Ok, the pic doesn't look like like the factory trim. I have surfed around for alternatives and I have seen some seals availible in the AUS market that are a one piece rubber seal that replaces the crappy chrome trim. I just cannot find any info on them.

Unfortunately it is getting to the point now that the factory trim pieces are starting to get scarce from Mr. T. I tried to get the all black trim and only 2 or 3 of the 8 pieces were still available from the dealer.

I had contemplated just getting some black windshield sealant and a spatula just filling in the whole gap between the windshield and the body

 

[The Jade Bean]

I found this... 56121-89117 W/STRIP W/SCREEN HLX 8308 | 4x4world.com.au

 

[PhrogsPhorever]

Interesting

That was the seal I was looking for 3 or so years ago when I was replacing the windshield on my 87 and couldn't find it for sale at the time.

I wonder how good it is? Hopefully one of our Aussie friends will chime in.

I may order a couple and check them out

 

[The Jade Bean]

Called the glass guy and he said he's done one before, but a long time ago. He's going to look at the diagram and call me back. He seems like a confident guy. Guess I'll see.

 

[onemanarmy]

there is a guy on T4R.org (rad4runner?) that has tons of tips and tricks for the first gen.

He goes into quite a bit of detail on the windshield rubber.

Don't know if you've seen it.
