NO STOP IT I WONT LET IT !! Okay, maybe just a few more things.

IT HAS BEGUN,...

Lisa and I had a great time. The rainbow Saturday afternoon was amazing. I discovered that the spectacle of people overcoming their fear of heights and generally sketchy decision making did a lot to let me get over the Friday night neighbors...

Trip report: We had four vehicles for camping Friday night (@brices123, @Highway Romping, @Cactuscrzr, @GeoRoss & Lisa too). There were a lot of people in camp and we did not get very much sleep. On Saturday morning we headed out of camp about...

Sold !!

Even more hilarious because the USPS has a 200A on the poster of "THINGS YOU'RE NOT ALLOWED TO SHIP"!

Score!!! 😎 I got a major chuckle out of this lantern ship job. Not mine, it was shared in a FB Coleman group

At the camping spot. The road is marked 9012R. You go all the way in and then all the way to the right (west). Look for the CSC banner. See you all soon.

Oil leak was identified and repaired. The power steering pump oil seal needed to be replaced. The pump was in good shape with no leaks other than motor oil leaking from where the pump mounts to engine. I unbolted the pump from underneath the...

Dude, it even matches your house! You've raised the bar of membership here on your first post... 😁

When was the last time you changed the Thermostat? Also, a common problem with this symptom is a radiator that's partially clogged with mud or foliage from water crossings. It's hard to see, but restricts enough airflow to cause overheating at...

This is a very normal thing for an 80. Toyota even calls out that at idle, sitting at the "zero" mark is normal. Here's mine with an actual oil pressure gauge in parallel. -Rob

😆 I said 5psi because in my head I was comparing the gauge to my deflator gauge, if you match the needle between them it’ll be 5psi as it its almost zero. Haha The ABS I removed the sensor because it’s annoying and doesn’t work well with 35s. It...

The pilot in me responds that it's 5gal USABLE. I've tested this extensively and inadvertently, and every time I've gotten to SOLID LIGHT, I can estimate 10mpg* for however far the next gas station and sure enough, that's damn close to gallons...

Where are you getting 5psi? Do you have the only calibrated 80 series oil pressure gauge in existence? Mine doesn't have any numbers, just a few hash marks for me to draw relative comparison to the last time I drove it 😂. It's fine. I'd be more...

That gauge position looks perfectly normal for an engine at normal operating temp.

5 gallons. Not saying it's calibrated for it, but 90% of the guys seem to have a 5gal remaining when the light stays on solid. When the light is fading in and out when you accelerate and corner, as the gas sloshes around through the baffles...

So, the camping spot from 2018 (or ?) is closed for camping. See photo. So, I am thinking either: Edge of the World or 34.97488° N, 111.83012° W (my records show this was the 2022 camping spot.) It is at the east end of FR539. BUT, I was not...

"He's barely up to his wheels, yet. Let's give him a week before we tell him about head gaskets and While-You're-In-There's!" Never too soon IMHO, just trying to help him from destroying his 80 before he learns what it can or can't do, what...

He's barely up to his wheels, yet. Let's give him a week before we tell him about head gaskets and While-You're-In-There's! 😃

I use my sister’s garage. She said “I don’t want my house to turn into a junkyard!” She drives a 4Runner..

First thing my mom said when she saw my new (*to me) LandCruiser? "Nice Jeep." Thanks, mom...

A week ago, I didn’t consider myself a proper gentleman. The only other Toyota vehicles I’ve owned are FJ Cruisers. Scrolling through some online auction listings, my eyes peeked. With two seconds on the clock, I took my shot and scored the...
