TD- was sold to a large AUS parts company. I dropped the US vendor status and now support and sell Dobinsons only. I have not heard many good things since the change for TD. It was a great product and AUS made and supported , but now the rumors...

I just spent 5 days driving a friends HJ61. I already had this, but that truck made me go overboard.

The 60 is preparing for its next phase in life. I've always tried to be patient and find the specific parts that let me build this truck exactly like I want it to be. It's a tool before a classic truck, and I won't change that. So, the 2F is...

I still need to clean the evap out. I can’t wait to see how much better it gets.

AC is charged. Wipers now work again and I can throw the linkage back in tomorrow. We’re almost ready to put carpet back into it and daily it. 40* vent temps in 70* weather tonight. We had to charge it again with r134. I was ready to put r12...

If the engine was rebuilt (and you trust the work). Install the Sniper. Why wait? You already have it.

My buddy @RiggityJ came and visited. We did a tune up on his 40 and then traded trucks while I benchmarked it. The 60 is a really turn key, non nonsense driver. Runs better than it looks and that’s my goal.

I swapped out the tach with the correct one for the 3FE from an FJ62. More RPMs on the tach = more racetractor

Will set the Scout body on the custom chassis tomorrow and get it covered and into the storage shop until a later date. J

Hi All- I wanted to share a product we are launching in late April or mid-May. It's the 2-Port Lower Thermostat housing for the 60 series that require smog compliance. We will have the item listed at $89.99. The factory casting this part for...

Just wanted to come in and introduce myself to the group. I just picked up my first FJ60 ('85) about 2 weeks ago and already loving this thing. My wife has been trying to convince me to buy a bronco for years... but that's something that I have...

Cutting and polishing the Scout II. Silver flake and pearl are amazing on this one. Will get it out in the sun tomorrow. Jason TT

Scout II is about ready for paint. J

I also did oem belts. My last set was from 2018 and I had out 50,000 miles on them. I had a random intermittent chirp from a belt delaminating. It’s dead quiet now.

We are super happy with this kit. The truck sits at a very nice level with stock tire size and it rides very nice with new suspension components. Some slight changes need to happen with later 60 and 62 vehicles in the rear; spoke with...

One of our other stock Japanese suspension customers ( @dmc ) stopped by today for some goodies. He's extremely happy with how it rides and handles with the new suspension :cool:

I use m1 15w50 syn and m1 50sae in the h55/split case. Where’s my parade?

Will provide an honest assessment.

Installing a set next week. Stoked to try this kit out. Thanks @cruiseroutfit for researching and bringing these springs back to life in the US.

It depends what you want to do with the truck. If you want to be cool and pull chicks this is your best bet.;):p Dynosoar:zilla:

About down to the rolling chassis again to start hammering out all the welding and misc frame plate additions. And some new fork extensions since the Cummins bent my others...... J

OME lift on my 60. I went with 33x10.5x15 on a 15x8 alloy wheel. I’m on my third set of that tire size with the same wheels. With the 4 speed it did okay on flat ground. After driving through Colorado (mountains) with a 5 speed… I wish I had 4.11...

@Kmonty66 is headed home. Thanks again for the work K. Jason TT

Getting drive time on @Kmonty66 rig to clear codes and take it to SMOG. All looks good so far. @Butt Ugly Chuck took a ride with me (33 miles to clear all monitors) and then went to breakfast. I got to jump on it pretty good from a stop and...

80 E-locker front axle for a coil conversion customer. New Aisin actuator and hubs. Jason TT
