THAT…is a skid plate…it looks like it could provide frame support instead of case protection 😲

No, skid plate came with the doubler from Morgan. Heard that it was a Butch built but don't know for sure.

Dropping a link per @Pigeaten request.

Dropped my skidplate. It's a lot easier coming down than going up, thing weighs about 100 pounds. I don't need it around town and it looks like I have some parking brake seals work to do. I'll just lean it up out of the way until the next...

Putting the clips on is a family secret, but it can be done. Just showing you what you ask for in your post good luck

GM Rally Wheels 15x8, BFG ko2s 33x10.50, On stock springs, Some work needs to be be done on the wheels, Center hole needs about 1/8 inch cut bigger and clips, only rubs on front a little when backing out drive way and turning,

Two on the right will be there , Mine is still broken from RUBITHON See you there !

80 indicators/wiper stalk fits the 55 nicely. Used the backing plate from the 80 and redrilled to suit the steering column bearing holder. This'll make rewiring easier. Im using the entire FZJ80 Loom inside the FJ55 including Dash Cluster

I understand the regs are what they are, but what do they consider 2 methods for holding the bonnet closed? What modern car has 2 different latches for a bonnet? All my modern cars have the same basic latch type that a 55 uses. First released by...

55 got a new shed with fairy lights. I may also be going down a tainted path, but I installed some Jeep JK Hood latches to make this 55 exactly how I envison it. Australia also requires two methods to hold the bonnet down, go figure.

Had to remake the body mount and add some supports as the new radiator needs some love. Welded in some 12M bolts to the mount to suite. Radiator turns up in a few days.

Its the small peices that always take the most time getting right.

Welder was playing up all day, but the tunnel is 'together' Have to clean up the welds back to flat and fill any gaps, before adding the bracing between the seats.

Man that sucks, been there done that. At one point we all stood on front bumper to get it to clear after airing tires down and loading interior up with heavy crap. Glad it worked out!

Now off to Tall Corn Cruiser Classic!

Will Knorrs attend ? Bring the 55, maybe it'll hold together ? LOL

I will be there in my 2nd gen 4runner, come say hi

So i guess They do not want LC ? No update on show for us ???

Laying down the carpet and finishing some wiring before the console and extension are installed.

I was thinking he would be living in the pig.....since it looks like he doesn't have a living room at the moment - based on his last house rebuild update anyway. 😂

Rock stacking the bowl ?

I aspire to attend this event. A question for this year's participants or previous participants... How did the IFS rigs fair? Did the FJC break any CV's? When I did the Kokopelli Run at Cruise Moab almost 15 years ago the FJC broke a CV on Rose...
