      cruisermatt replied to the thread Sandy the Tan FJ60.
      I know he doesn't have high-steer, I'm saying it would be neat for him to do their flat or Mid-steer arms, not quite high-steer but in the middle so it will have the benefit of flatter drag link without the links hitting his frame at flex, and no...

      how did you manage to bend that. FROR makes the M23 inserts as a kit with tubing that you cut to length. If you are willing to modify stuff I would go to their flat or mid-steer keyed arms and 80 joints everywhere. Have @GLTHFJ60 mill your...

      cruisermatt replied to the thread Dream FZJ 80 Axle Build.
      No one is making anything up, it's been done multiple times as retrofit and Toyota literally built it that way on all 105's. Now whether it is a actual worthwhile upgrade or not is a different discussion

      Lost count of how many inquires for 4.88 regears we got after the crazy liquidation sale they did last year. Most the of the time the $3-400 savings or whatever it was on the gear purchase became vastly outweighed once they saw the quote to...

      a few years later.. I'm going to stand by this, and say your mind would be changed if you drove one set up like this :) @mattressking

      I also brought it in during a work day, and installed: -Air intake cone that was missing -New OEM fuel tank to replace the garbage poly tank that only holds 12 gallons, along with all soft fuel lines and reinstalled the missing evap system...

      Lets see what I did to it before the trip.. first thing was the rear suspension. Not sure what the long term plan for this one is so didn’t want to drop the coin on a full suspension kit, so I just did a quick SOA in the rear with some stock...

      All of the connectors on that subharness are available new (I have them in stock) and could build a new subharness however it would be more expensive then buying from a used parts supplier.

      cruisermatt replied to the thread Any update on Topnault?.
      Maybe they are just reorganizing the website. I was seriously considering a 45 cab from them despite expectations of less then perfect fitment, and poor communications to my questions.
    • cruisermatt
      So I don't think you wrote much on the camper/roof situation plans initial, is the goal to be removal or permanent?

      I’ll update later with what I’ve done to this one since the purchase, but this weekend I drove it 600 miles each way to ONSC Carolina Relic Run, a few issues but nothing that held me up for more then a few minutes. The 40 does cruise effortlessly...

      1200 mile trip this weekend for ONSC Carolina Relic Run.. no issues at all other then two injectors becoming unplugged for some reason, and the turbo is still dumping oil. Nothing that actually required any wrenching on the trip. I actually...

      Some people like kits though. I am planning to come out with a similar kit that Iron Pig but with a few of my own touches.

      DS shock mount ripped off. Bummer. All terrains are a riot.

      Splitcase. You realize there have been 4l60 swaps with splitcases for over 20 years, right?
    • cruisermatt
      You mean the one I have?
    • cruisermatt
      I’ve never had any problems with this or complaints from customers on any of the ones I’ve done :meh:

      cruisermatt replied to the thread Tranfer case rebuild help.
      No reason to repair a output shaft when they are readily available new, OEM, inexpensively. I should have several in stock.
    • cruisermatt
      Sorry guys, made it 110 miles and had to turn around and go take care of family stuff at home. Middle class dream stuff here. Y’all have fun and take pics.

      I have notably been absent. With a very demanding 9 to 5++ job I’ve had to take a backseat in this year’s event planning. I have to say the collaborative effort of all of you has been outstanding! I hope to see you all this weekend at some...

      Not intended to argue with you about your own products - but that 75-77 version, or any alternator intended to mount in the upper passenger side would not work for him without fabrication. The pre-74 would be the bolt-in. After 74 (Start of 2F...
    • cruisermatt
      The reason you aren’t finding anything is that you are working on a Non-US example and the alternator is mounted differently. This will work for you, however since that is an original NipponDenso alternator my preference would be to have that...
