Making progress on the 62 - After getting the 80 body off the frame, I was able to put a laser on it to assess the damage. It was about 2" over to the driver side from the front shock towers forward. You can see the black Sharpie line on the...

I could have used a steer axle today as we took the trailer fully loaded with building supplies to a cabin above Holy Cross City. I am impressed with both the Cruiser and the trailer. They both did great! Video to come.

Mike, here's a trailer I built from scratch a few years ago... we really enjoyed it and got a lot of use out of it. You might see an idea or two in it that would work for your build. Good luck! Looking forward to seeing the progress -...

Good call.... last time we were on Rubicon, we saw an XJ pulling a trailer. They were not able to finesse at all, they needed speed to make it over some obstacles. It was entertaining for us to watch, but looked pretty exhausting for the driver.

Pulling this motor out for a swap.... it runs really well. Starts right up and drives well. No smoke on startup, even cold. Dash shows 380k, but no idea how many miles on the engine. I have a video of it starting and running if needed. Will...

Pending....

Just pulled this 1FZ from a 1994 80 series I'm using the frame to put under a 60 project, so I don't need the drivetrain It was driving till it got into an accident last year I actually drove it into the shop before pulling it Odometer reads...

That really was a fun weekend... about as much fun as you can have hanging out in a parking lot all day then a KOA in an industrial area at night! The award was well deserved and really fun to watch you win! The next meet up will definitely be...

I found a toyota replacement that fits. It is black bs Grey and doesn't have the same flat spot around the outer edge. List is under $5 each 90950-01449

Congrats!! Well deserved, your truck is awesome and it's obvious a lot of hard work and planning went in to it. Looking forward getting my copy!

Hoping you can finish this project in about 2 days, I need my dopamine hits and have no more attention span thanks to internets....LOL super cool stuff

Just think.... in a day or two it will look like this!

Made some headway over the last 48 hours. What a messy job, but we got it done.... There's something strange about pulling a vehicle into the shop knowing its the last time it will ever drive. Its way different than just buying a motor...

I have one... where are you located?

Shameless plug for those that don't get into the 60 section - A new thread for the beginning of a new project.... but for the wife this time. 60 on 80 frame with iForce 5.7, for anyone that's interested...

My first post ever in the 60 section, and it's the beginning of what will be a fairly in depth build. My wife love's 60 series, so this build is for her. She wants to have her own rig to drive on and off road, so many of the decisions on this...

After putting on some hard miles on the 45 at SAS this year, I realized I rattled one of my hood pins loose. I took the remaining pin out and there was no evidence of Lock Tite on it, so definitely user error on my part. @SMG promptly hooked me...
