This 2H seems to be off its nut!! This is the culmination of a 3.5yr build of an HJ60. It's an amalgamation of about 5 different vehicles. The engine is from a rusted out beachside 60 series that I think had about 250,000klms on it. No turbo...

Fe3 is the TriMeki vendor handle here on ih8mud. Here is our vendor thread listing particulars about the order process: https://forum.ih8mud.com/threads/trimeki-2f-1f-stainless-steel-header-exhaust-system.1337067/ Thank you all for your...

Another run of these is in the works. :)

The center console is meant to replace a factory console. This Cruiser lacks the console brackets on the floor since it originally was a bench seat truck. They sent some brackets but they were just to whimpy and allowed the console to vibrate and...

I posted it to a 60 Series FB group a bit ago. Hope that stirs up some traffic for you.

Chase Ahh bummer. We'll keep your family in our prayers!!

The weather was so nice yesterday I decided to do this instead. Ill ride my bike tomorrow.

We knew it was going to be a lot of work, but it took both of us 12 hours straight to get it done 😲 On top of that I had to kick one of the cars out of the garage to let the ceramic coat cure on the 40. I removed as many emblems and parts off...

Looking good! Thank you for the support! :cheers:

Found an original tie rod end clamp bolt and put a Cruiser Cult/City Racer coolant overflow tank on over the winter. The bottle is a later version but keeps the coolant contained and is easily reversible.

Since the mixture screw is the same setting from factory and you can't get it to idle, something was installed/setup incorrectly during rebuild. I wouldn't recommend chasing the mixture screw as the factory setting will be more than sufficient to...

Relocated this sweet beast to it's new Rocky Mountain home. Fun times ahead!

Still just doing my 70mi daily commute, truck is doing great. Took a small break and ran up to Spokane/Coeur d’Alene for a ve-pump motor. Decided to stop in Pendleton for a burger and a beer…one of my last decent burgers and beers until after...

Some snaps from riding around the city. Always therapeutic to burn the legs and spin the pedals.

Thank you both! I haven been helping a family member deal with a sudden cancer diagnosis. Unfortunately it was caught too late and we are just working to make sure they are comfortable. :( One of those terrible life lessons on how fast things can...

Hope everything is going ok. Great thread, lots of tech with a good story mixed in.

Ditto from me Chase.

Double nut, if no joy…. Vice Grips, if no joy…. Grinder….. And penetrating oil……lots of penetrating oil….

I think we'll have photographers tomorrow and it'll be an article in Toyota Trails Mag, so everyone polish up their cruisers!!!!

It's a pain, but you can replace the fuel pulsation damper without removing any intake stuff. I used a crow's foot socket that I ground down a bit to make it fit. I wanna say it was 22 or 23mm. I don't know if they're available OEM. I got mine...

Diesellibrarian-thanks-it was 22mm which I found at AutoZone of all places. CityRacer has an OEM part with the crush washers so it’s on its way. AutoZone did show an aftermarket part which was the same price as CityRacer. Question-while spending...

These were first shown way back in post #447 of this thread. I speculated they were some sort of counterbalance. Learned they are just that. They are counterweights for Toyota tiller/cultivators made in the 50s-60s by Toyota Automatic Loom...

A broken sight glass is sad. One on an NOS SD-40 was sadder: But it's all better now: Thanks Andy. The new soft seal is a great product alone. It fits perfectly.
