New to me vertical mill. Traveled here all the way from Michigan.

Took my parent's mint '92 HDJ80 to yesterdays Offroad-Day at the Toyota Collection Cologne. First time I touched that car since losing my father to cancer last year. It brought back so many great memories of traveling and wrenching, laughing and...

….drove another ~200 miles into NM sacaramento mnts through some rocky desert to experience completely different topography and weather. Boon-docking yet at another undeveloped property.

We are currently working on getting Fan kits back to market.

Yes the compiled suspension thread is the best resource. And yes keep an eye on the classifieds. I Have found some good deals here over the years

Looks good, but I would go to 24' wide. Why well you will always put stuff in that space between the garage door opening and the wall. first it will be just some windshield washer fluid and then it grows, then comes a shelf and in short order you...

Was putting my ‘92 back together after a deserved full paint job. Clear coat was starting to fail after 32 years. I made new door cards and upholstered them while the 80 was at the paint shop. All that’s left is repainting the front bumper...

I would be reluctant for all that work. My windshield is so rock and sand pitted I'd hate to get another like that.

Agree they quoted me 1850+ tax for an oem tundra windshield. Got a local place to do it for 1000 less

F safelight. They quoted me $1400.00 to replace a rear sliding glass. A local shop ordered one on ebay and installed it for $220.00 out the door.

Thanks for that tip. That just might work for this. The TurboLamik needs two wires from the paddle shifters, up and down. Looking at some aftermarket paddle shifters, they just need power and ground. That could very well be the path to having...

Parts arrived. They fit up nicely to the Dodge 8HP75. Will be doing a fit check on a block and a transfer case this weekend and then set a date for the install.

Same reason I have snap on and Mac I got them from dad This picture is the old house right after my divorce

They are turned up as bright as they go. They dim with the switch.

I’ve bought some SK stuff recently.

Wright tools and proto have been my go to for replacing and additions for general hand tools since the death of craftsman

Whoa thats too bright ooofff.... Ouchy, If I change mine over it will be to the amber/orange that BMW used in the 80s-90s or like most Pontiac's from the same time easier on the eyes at night.

trans mount on the rear cross member finally give up the ghost ???

Still making adjustments to the front sway bar

Check egr valve is not stuck open.

Drive plates on the front hubs can cause some vibes while coasting in gear or load aka engine braking but felt more at all speeds other than very slow. Though I agree check all your u joints and slip yokes 1st, from what you describe that’s my...

Nothing fancy planned here locally, maybe just a meetup for a beer and another beer. There’s quite a few 40’s I’ve spotted around the Bitterroot in the last year, and a few more up in Missoula, hopefully I can wrangle a group together sometime...

These part numbers were for the intermediate length slinky kits correct ?? If so I will take them

I am stuck in purgatory in Blacksburg VA till who knows when, been here since late august last year. When are we thinking about a Cruiser peeps get together this year? Early to mid summer maybe ??

Yes - ski valley up on Mt Lemmon. Southern most ski resort in the northern hemisphere for those that don’t know.
