Re-adjusted the booster rod to master clearance to “spec”. I think it’s going to be the solution to the hot dragging brakes. But it isn’t hot enough to test again quite yet Paired @TRFarmers B pillars with @TRAIL TAILOR door seals. Looking fresh...

Got the retrobrights installed. Had to do two modifications to get it right. The h840 “Toyota” harnesses don’t work off the shelf. I used one of the universal adapters that come with each headlight to adapt the input to the h840 like this...

Day 6 and 7: Found a nice secluded spot in the San Juan’s near Jersey Jim Lookout. First night it was the boy and I with my Niece (my cousin’s daughter) in tow in her 4Runner. Kept it mellow and spent most of the time trying to decide if a spot...

This may be a little over kill, but I am making some progress on the sound dampening! It is slow and tedious but slowly moving forward!

Finally got this little beauty installed. It illuminates in almost the same colour as the rest of the dash as well! 😍

Oh boy. Went and did a thing. Son went with me to just "check out" this sweet 1983 FJ60 that has been sitting for.. a while. Last registered in 2000, been on non-op since. But, as far as I can tell, it's also about the most rust free and no...

Finished product, I’m pleased.

Nevermind, went down the street. All set.

Here’s a copy of my ‘inventory list’. Everything fits in the pictured bag. Inventory list is accessible in the front pocket. The bag weighs 55 lbs. Heavy yes, but something I just make room for. Oops, somehow the pictures got inverted. Page...

The 2021 Tundra drivetrain is completed. Standalone harness and all the Toyota securities bypassed.

Some more bling~

Details are what matter.

Alright I got a quote from a place today that will do solargard 70 VLT on all windows + windshield for $1k. I think I'm gonna do it.

And some more photos, now the detailed buffing sanding etc comes in probably gonna take 30

Here’s some more details after 5 coats of clear coat from Sherwin Williams - underneath and wheel wells I think will be black rubberized undercoating for noise reduction again from Sherwin Williams for rustproofing too, then I can do the actual...

I’m using a 3m gun & compressor and also have the spray cans with the triggers everything from Sherwin Williams the spray cans I only use in hard to reach areas I need and sanding in between being hella careful

Well, I dove in and fully committed to figuring out why I couldn’t weld…. Haven’t really had this problem before. I’ve even been lazy and burned through rust, paint or I’ll prepared metal, and could hold a steady bead. Especially on the gutter...

Chassis is welded out. I'll set the ride height tomorrow and get the axle angles where I want them and weld out all the axle brackets and links.

Chassis bracketry is mostly welded out. Will get the body mounts welded on Monday and pull off jig and flip to get all the bottom joints. Then reset frame on jack stands and get the axles positioned and all the axle bracketry welded up.

Not really a fan of putting European stuff on Japanese cars, so I found some Japanese horns to install. PIAA > Hella. Ive finally got working horns in my truck. There's a large tunnel where I live where everyone honks inside of and my daughter...

Finished restoring a Warn 9.5ti and got it mounted up!

omg they are. I realized that bar is probably for anti-inversion huh? Damn.

Hi 62, 3FE Owners- Upper Thermostat Housing is now available from The Rust Farmers. Price $99 plus shipping Same casting plant that made our 2F lowers...

Got my final valve adjustment and timing completed prior to the cross country trip in August so I have time to confirm engine is running to spec. The #6 exhaust valve was a little tight as were the #3 and #4 intake valves. This is my second...

Not the weekend but my weekend. Finally got all the parts and time to get this confer rack mounted. Drove from VA to AL and back to get it a few months ago. Super happy with the fit and look
