I was on a trail walk in the mountains with my dog and in a valley ahead and below, I saw a woman with what looked like a small bear walking behind her. Long story short, she told me it was a Bouvier des Flandres. More commonly known as a belgium...

She is still at it!

We call it "bear conditioning" :rofl:

love the term “bear conditioning”

yotabearingsandhubs.com give you the choice, economy assembly or units with koyo bearings. Either way, pretty reasonable.

Isn’t that considered a steering shaft ground path for the horns?

I've tested probably 20-25 of those valves and have yet to find one that works right - all of them are a vacuum leak. I think they're a victim of age, my guess is that an internal diaphragm doesn't last over the decades. These valves (below) from...

Here's the interim wrap-up of the dynadeck floor covering. This is probably all I'm covering with dynadeck and will be waiting for a city racer toyota mat to complete the covering of the transmission tunnel and foot areas. In these images I...

I found one for my 40 that was whole.

Yeah, that.

Are those 33” tires and (off topic) is that a SOR sliding window?

We cruised on towards Steamboat Mountain, traversing the edge of the Killpecker Sand Dunes on the way.

When’s the last time you checked / ajusted the valve clearances? How is your vacuum at the manifold?

This is such a beautiful build... and what a milestone! I am envious of that paint job 😍

Additionally...Aditionally.... This build and truck gets a new name "Loretta". Every time I think about the name reminds me of Cher playing Loretta in Moonstruck. An unmarried daughter who is looking older and greyer....but she goes to the...

So here's where I'm attempting to head on floor coverings. I definitely wanted something 1) I could lift/remove off the floor to check for moisture and dry out 2) was insulated against floor heat 3) contributed to sound deadening That left me...

Have you tried tosshin.com who is another Japanese company. You would need to inquire about shipping, the price of the windshield is the same in USD.

I’m surprised, they package their shipments very well.

Wouldn’t hurt to have non-ethanol fuel in the tank (if you don’t already) it doesn’t gum things up like fuel with ethanol, especially if it’s going to sit for extended periods of time.

I tried Amayama for you and price = 282.58, shipping = 79.01 (to Austria), delivery = 9/7/25 Part number 56111-90303

Yup.

Just an update on the phenomenal online dealer price (16.00!) of this great kit. Being that they’re glass housings ordering a spare set might not be a bad idea, before they’re no longer available. 81110-60P70👍 P.S. don’t buy this kit from Cruiser...

I ran my harness on the inside of the bottom of the bib to get to the other side.

Where? The hood on my US market 1980 has those. I want new ones
