Threw on some load bars, changed the diff oil and torqued a bunch of bolts. Going to build a rear winch bumper, add some rock lights, diff breathers, prp seats and maybe a snorkel. Have Moab, Rubicon, Ouray and Dusy-Ershim trail runs coming up...
A little technical information that I learned from my friend JimC @FJ40Jim.
When doing a 60-series conversion on a 40, keeping the 60-series pitman arm can lead to interference with the arm/steering bar and the leaf springs. Jim recommends using...
Another 2 years of goodness! Passed smog again . Changed oil , lubed and getting ready for wheeling season.. Stopped by my buddy’s to see his new project(little brother 😂)

Been awhile since I've posted but just acquired an LV in pieces and looking for some parts. Door parts, regulators, handles, strikers, tailgate hinges, tailgate strikers to hatch, rear landcruiser nameplate, toyopet latch assembly, wing vent...

Caught the local FD stop to catch a glimpse of the 79 the other day.
