      Been a while and thought I’d post some new ones. I found a really nice Reed 4C and I think that will replace the Columbian 205 I had on the corner previously. I’d forgot how MASSIVE these are. This one is from 82 and has the replaceable jaws...

      So the Decked is for a 05-23’ Tacoma with the 5ft bed. It’s the closest we could find to a plug and play system. It did require some plastic carving between the wheel wells at the front of the bed to fit it. Here is how we have setup the...

      Used my the 8274 to pull out a horse trough I buried about 10 years ago. It was a planter to contain bamboo that only survived a few years. It was pulling the truck, with three wheels blocked. Initially tried 'lifting' it with the snatch block...

      Block sanding for days, more skim coats of filler and more block sanding. Another coat of 2k primer extra thick, more block sanding. *sigh* Not sure why I am getting this agro on level of detail when I just plan to wrap a bunch of the body...

      couple of thing... Custom snorkel and installing the electrical on the EATON F/R lockers. I replaced the bulky, messy wiring with a 3 relay block (2 will serve the lockers and 1 the lights) and adding the OEM switches with potted connected...

      Boy…zero tech or pictures from me. I’ve had some interesting and sad things happen but I’ll at least talk about some of the good things. Another work trip, 1:45 each way in the cruiser and it just chugged along again. Got rain dumped on 5...

      It has to be braced correctly to the engine. It cracked again after being rewelded. Ever since I got it properly braced it’s been fine.

      Began installing a wolfbox rear view replacement mirror/cam today. Thankfully it's happy with 24 volts so I didn't have to get creative with my house battery and relays... I got the 10 inch version and it "just" fits. Meaning it doesn't quite...

      One last update. My direct mount came today. I removed the stick on style arm mount entirely. Then I modified the back of it so I could bolt a standard RAM ball on instead. On the other end I bolted a ram ball where the OEM mirror used to bolt...

      The Wolf box 930 is now fully installed. I haven't used it on the road yet but I'm happy with what came out of the box. Getting the wires from the mirror through the headliner and down the A pillar was not a lot of fun. I used some nylon line to...

      When I was on my trip in May, I made contact with a Canyon wall. Not only did it take out my rear wrap around window, but it also left several dents just under it. I'm currently waiting for my Cruiser Co gullwing window, but the dents remain...

      Took mini dump truck to a new shop for state inspection. They had what I think is an HZJ73 they were working on. They say they would not be afraid to try working on my 13BT if needed. This is the only shop in the area that seems willing.

      I recently added a small fan up front. Every other vehicle I ever had with air conditioning had a small Pusher on the front of the condenser. I figured it couldn't hurt? One tricky part was finding a 24 volt fan. The other was finding one small...

      All right. Some more sleuthing has led me to what I’m almost 100% sure is the culprit. In 1999, Toyota started the R151F pairing with the split case for the 1HZ 70-series. Between 1999 & ~2003, the transfer input shaft (separate from the...

      Today I put US license plates on my HZJ77! I brought it back from Japan and I have to say this is a major accomplishment for me. About a fifteen years ago I fell in love with 70 series Land Cruisers but figured I'd never have one as an...

      Also, finally recharged the A/C system after replacing most of the major components (see earlier posts). I've never really done any a/c work until this truck, so fortunately, there are several good videos about it. Anyway, the system held a...

      Is it just me, or is time moving faster every year?? 🤔 Too many projects, not enough time. BUT - I like to prioritize family, so we took the family camping(glamping?) 4 hours away to a waterslide and theme park for a week. I also took the...

      I just got back from the Solid Axle Summit in Ouray Colorado. I pulled this ~3,400 pound trailer through Utah and Colorado mountain passes for 640 round trip miles. I averaged 17.4 miles per gallon. Combined GVW for truck and trailer is ~9,000...

      Finally installed the 100 ft synthetic cable I bought. It really did not want to spool in properly until I got a lot of turns on the drum.
