Tie-down and cargo area divider. It makes a nice safe spot to store optics, rifles, and other fragile things without getting crushed by coolers and such. Also doubles as an extension for sleeping in the back.

Drove it 80 miles round trip to do some hiking.

Some more photos for fun

Experimented with reheating leftover pizza on a fire. Worked good enough for me. Got some more rocks for the yard. Really loaded up this time. I figure 1,000lbs in the back. Really squatted the rig and made the drive up and out from the...

Another weekend camping trip. The Henry mtns in the distance. Such a cool mtn range. Apparently I am not the only one who feels this way 😂

Pretty sure I found some Dino prints and other cool stuff.

Spent the day with the rig doing some hiking and getting some rocks for the yard. Sand, mud, snow, stone, rain, and sun all in 1 day.

Way to go “princess”!

I’d use one of the supplied holes and shorten the sway bar arm!

“Add in a little more front sway bar”? By what means?

What rear bumper is on the green machine?

Should have brought my board, we ran down instead. Cheers

A beautiful day in Idaho yesterday. Didn’t plan to go for a hike, was just out for a drive. Really wish I had took my split board, oh well next time. Cheers

Got the frame plated today, the welds are pretty ugly but I’m past caring at this point😑 And I found another buckle in the frame that I’m probably not going to worry about

Turbo works with a relocation kit for the factory reservoir bottle. My factory unit was there for quite awhile, it just never made it back in before the trip we took a bunch of photos... I'll snag some tomorrow!

Finally got to run Pritchett Canyon this trail is very difficult and technical. We started with 8 Regs unfortunately, at the first obstacle our trail leader, Justin snapped rear axle on his built 40. The rest of us went on the run trail without...

Got an invite to do a Victorian High Country trip in 6 weeks. Figured I need to finish this thing, spend a week wheeling it interstate & then bring it home to sell. Runs and drives well, everything works like factory. Only thing I need is a 1HZ...

Not the best photos, but there we go. 1HZ + H150 out, a lot lighter than the 1FZ with auto hanging off the back. Hard to see but the tires on the white 80 are dead flat, 4"coils with no weight on them are too tall for my crane. No idea how I got...

Tunnel graft from underneath, that's just white sika, not light. Cross member mounted for now as per this thread: 80 Series H151F 5 Speed Manual Transmission Swap - Includes RHD HDJ81 & LHD FZJ80 -...

Time for another update, boy do I have a lot of them to catch up on....the little time I get these days I am is usually spent doing something small to the truck or working on our house and I don't have much time to get things documented. I also...

The next hurdle to tackle was the arms. I got some tips for the bend from Nick Gustafson on instagram and learned an important lesson. With a swag bender, whatever the angle finder sees is double of what the bend is... dully noted. The arms seem...

While your having fun with the new found power of turbo, I’m curious about na 1Fz vs turbo 1Fz mpg? I don’t worry about mpg’s😬, I’m just curious .

It would be possible to tow a 40 with the added power of the turbo but I think you'd be pushing the limits of the 80. From the factory a stock 80 is rated to tow ~5000lbs. I would guess most 40's are in the 4-5k lb range depending on how it's...
