shoot me a price for the seats

Impressive Jimmy, I have found my paint body guy.

And the hood/roof while working on the hail damage

I’m guessing @landsnoozer is never going to make a build thread so I’ll continue to park the updates here :). Shot the roof/hood today. Lots of dust bunnies and an ok spray job. 4 coats of clear so we have room to address them after the paint...

Man, I want to make another trip down as well. Always a good time.

@CenTXFJ60 Good luck with your new venture. Hope you get a lot of customers…BUT… hope Maureen & I aren’t one of them.😱😁😱

Glad you are able to get some Cruiser work done with the new business. I know how that goes. I am so strapped for time for Cruisers and racks since buying my partner out at the powder coat business a year ago. Trying to grow that business has...

So I’ve been lame with general updates. Started a new business (Senior in-home care) late 2023 so been very busy during the day. Yep…the goal is I’ll have enough experienced caregivers that I won’t have to depend on either of my two boys to...

Bought for myb79 series project but sold it and was left with this. Brand new with new carrier bearings 1kusd shipped!!!

I have a starter like that from a BJ40 shoot me a PM

Wild. Hard to interpret what I'm seeing from those photos. Sharing here for posterity

I would love this for my 60. Did I miss a price?

I'm trying to find a Tuffy 023-03 center console for my FJ40. The gray one seems to be out of stock at the moment. If anyone has one available, I would love to buy it.

I started making these a few months ago and need to get them on the website, but figured I'd post here as well to try and move some. Fits all 40/55 series front axles, and rear axles up to -75 No, they don't have the little rigidity bend in the...

The rear heater pipes cleaned up well. The foam had some scuff marks after nearly 50 years so I used some heavy duty heat shrink to spruce them up a bit.

Slowly still working on the heater.i should have it done once the warm weather shows up.

i'll take em. Paypal?

12H-T, H55, and 33s are the best option as long as you have 4.10 gears.

On my 09/77, the 3 point belt anchor point just moves from the hard top side to the roll bar when top is removed. It has the bigger 11mm bolt in that spot. I would assume yours does as well.

You're not far off. In my line of work I deal with allegedly smart people (engineers) making stupid decisions on various military systems. I have to be nice to them. This situation is similar in that they also do not have real world experience...

* You will not be able to source the parts to make your engine DI. * If you were to find the parts (essentially a whole engine) the cost to import it and build it would far exceed the cost of a 15bft.

I appreciate your feedback. No part of me is hurt. I am genuinely on a journey learning about Toyota diesels. Coming from the Cummins world, I have a ton to learn. Your attitude here is less than ideal. I’m sorry if your home life is hard or...

All of your ideas are terrible. Sorry if your feelings are hurt. Listen to the more experienced members here and install a direct injected engine if you want more power from your van. The idea of making a DI out of your engine is not realistic...

Any due diligence on your part researching this should yield the same conclusion.

Worst idea I have seen on mud in a while.
