Well, I went to test fit and 10 minutes later they were installed. Guess I can't complain too loudly. I'll figure out a plan B for the front. Now. Nobody tell Mel I've increased this things load capacity... Me saying they were only half...

Yep he did 😅 Post in thread 'New prototype Land Cruiser? (see pics)' https://forum.ih8mud.com/threads/new-prototype-land-cruiser-see-pics.331260/post-4948906

Didn't he work for wolf boats up island building aluminum boats ? I have a vague memory of that project or a very similar one...

Amazing! Nice looking shop there too!

It’s alive! Rear brakes are Caesar salad but it’s alive!

I considered a bit of varnish, but too fancy. 🤣

2nd owner. 3B. Beautiful truck. Just around the corner from NSOR in N Van.

Ya bigger would be nice too, but those ones are pretty handy

Have you looked at those cabinet installer drills? They're not big but for a lot of things they're enough. https://share.google/g5pDDzRPPufEsY85X I also have one of these for my impact gun, its probably one of the most useful tools I own...

Right at Victoria Airport there is Seawings International. https://www.seawings.ca/ Phone them and sort it out. They are super reliable. Charge 75 cents or so per pound to bring directly from Blaine. Been doing it for years so it's not new...

Done. Might splurge on some new door cards. Naturally I have 2 ok-ish passenger side ones, and 2 s***ty driver's side. 🙄 Now I can finally clean up and put away all the door sh1t that's been in the way for 3+ months. 😤

This is HUGE> next 48 hrs. FREE SHIPPING JAPAN TO NORTH AMERICA ---- MEGAZIP They must really be feeling the sting!! FEDEX is never less than $75 generally $150 now. I might restock some of the bearings I just went through. Enjoy...

Sea potato has forms for 40 fenders, that's how I built my fiberglass ones, you could do something like that then extend them fairly easily. That said with such a Frankentruck it seems to be pretty fair game to use whatever works 😅 I think...

Fair questions. Unless you know where there are absolutely mint condition frames then they aren’t any better than what we already have. This is a US frame from a 62 and it’s really nice. As for building something custom that deserves the...

The last few times I went for a spin, I started noticing the driver’s side floor was sinking. So today I pulled back the mat to explore… I’ve discovered that the front roll bar hoop is holding up most of the floor under my feet. It looks like it...

Cool. That should be fun. @Rigpig knows something about the first half of that project...:flipoff2: :lol:

Seems like an awesome project!!

Well folks, after a few years away from this pit of keyboard warrioring, picture posting, opinion giving and receiving, I’ve come full circle and have somehow convinced my 16yr old son to try and take a 1991 Yota Ext Cab body and slap it onto a...

Locks are actually pretty good for rust. Pot metal and brass or stainless mostly. Just the springs you need to watch out for, particularly the one on the key hole flap, but they're usually almost toast anyways. I didn't leave these locks in...

Not sure I'd go quite that far ... maybe a holy **** you're cheap :lol:

It's basically a shop vac with a hole drilled in the bottom and a barb fitting so that the sandblaster can suck the recycled sand out of the vacuum

Too bad you're not closer, I've got a new sandblaster that does recycling... Pretty handy... Basically a sandblaster with a shop vac attatched, would be pretty easy to build a DIY one actually....
