Got back from the longest trip in quite a while, all the way out to Colorado and back! It got me home. What a treat. I have not been on a trip over five days in too long! Some things did pop up though and now begins the quest to solve. NOISE...

Trying to replicate a galvanized coating on three heat shields. I think this KBS high temp aluminum is close enough. That's pretty much what new galvanized metal looks like. That's after one coat of primer and one coat of Aluminum. Will put...

Hell yeah I did! its cool they do that. I actually am pretty pleased with the insurance price. Puts the mind at ease. ( I sound like a satisfied customer commercial)

I think in the second video he shows the lap weld back where the joint is facing upward ( or downward?)so water would be hard to get to? I might be wrong about this as I was my third beer. 👍

Did you get “cherished value” coverage as well? I think for mine it was like $10-15 more a year and you automatically get the vehicle back if totaled; no buyback

Well I got some insurance so I can get a plate on this piggy! I did Haggerty this time and I got it for half the price that I was doing for farm bureau that the fj40 was insured by. I feel pretty good about it. I got it insured for a number that...

So it’s a Hone over drive. @Living in the Past for the win! Found some good info on the Hone Overdrives in the 40 section. It’s down the list to get working. Seems like a great thing to revive if possible. Could be easier than a 4 speed swap...

Coming in with a new project, adventure and life changing news! my wife and I are expecting a child! Its the best news and I am so excited to be a father. I hope they love land cruisers!! This knowledge of becoming a father pushed me over the...

First drive today! a good shake down for sure. Ill elaborate more tomorrow but it was pretty fun!

Don't bother rebuilding the Webber. Find a used OEM carb that someone is getting rid of for a sniper upgrade. The webbers are not suited to the 2f and you'll never beat the OEM carb.
