    73 Series Soft top

    What do you do with these doors when you take the top off? Do they just sit there in the air?

    I’ve been dreading taking this pallet apart for a week. The person that wraps these things is clearly the devil. I think they intern at @cruiseroutfit and when they determine they are even too evil for them, Dobinsons sends them to a finishing school.

    Brendan wanted the best battery. I could not pull the trigger on one too. Just can’t believe what they cost these days. My little 70 is getting the budget battery 😆

    Good to know. He only charged me $127 for the inspection. Duties and fees though were pretty expensive. I made the mistake of putting the real cost of these trucks on my paperwork. They all will be $5000 trucks going forward

    Meshal had the original carburator rebuilt and tuned by their local carburator guru. It is slick and runs and cranks perfectly. But if it ever goes south Brendan has a spare Check out this OEM beauty

    Those stats measure right for the box in this thing yes. Thanks. Here are a couple of videos. They did some nice touch up work on the paint and actually put a 79 series bed on it because the original one was a bit too rough. Cheaper to replace than repair. New OEM decals. Fun fact. The...

    They are super rare in the Middle East from what I’m finding.

    What series is the proper battery for a FZJ75? This is obviously not the correct size.

    So that gets me up to current time. 9 months. Thats a long time and I appreciate how patient Brendan has been. My next two were scheduled to leave the west coast of Saudi on the 15th but Iran decided to lob missles all over the Persian Gulf so they are pushed back into the 25th now. Crazy...

    Jerry drove the 200 and I jumped in the FZJ70 with the 285/75-16s. This thing is a Rocketship. We ran 75 mph most of the way from Houston to Hammond Louisiana where we swapped and he took the 70 home to Hattiesburg and I pulled the 75 home. Got in at 11 pm.

    F it. What’s another week and a few more thousand dollars. In Friday they released my container and my shipper said he would have the 70s ready for pickup on Monday. I swung through Hattiesburg, had dinner with my daughter and crashed at her apartment. The Marine @68dirtypig and I left at 6...

    The day finally comes. The trucks land in Houston on April 8th. My calendar is clear and I’m ready to go and I get notice that my container has been selected for Customs inspection. Is this normal? Whats this mean? The last two came through without a hitch. This was my answer.

    Next stop is Spain the off to Houston ….. right? Negative. Delay is up to 21 days on top of the 90 days Fuggit. Go to Mexico for a week while you are at it. Don’t fear. That 20 day delay make up of a day…. Can’t have that.

    The day finally comes and our ship sets sail……. North to Kuwait. South to India. And then slowly south after an additional 14 days delay on the ship We watch in dismay as it finally rounds the horn

    Shipper contacts me. Good news, We can get your container out of Damman to the east. Bad news. Send me more money. Worse news. It’s got to go around the Horn of Africa. Transit time. 90 days.

    This one and another are stuffed into a container and scheduled to hit the high seas on October 10th with a 43 day cycle to the US. We are stoked. And then…..well s***. The Middle East decided to blow up and our Houthi friends started lobbing rockets at innocent Land Cruiser carrying...
