Got to see what this land yacht was all about. It kept up no prob! I had to give it the beans. It was unhappy with this rut even without running a sway bar

The wife just sent me this pic and I thought I’d share. He was just as excited as I was to get a new headliner in haha

Man, I am wiped out. That was way harder than we thought it would be, but it was the sunroof that caused most of the headache. I caulked the front panel earlier today and let it setup while I waited for my father-in-law to swing by. We marked...

Also, does anyone have another factory hook? Not sure why this only has one.

A small signature on all my cars is stainless arp 12pt hardware and black beauty washers. Ordered these a while ago but they messed up and took forever to come in. Now, I’m happy with the winch install and can focus on mounting the power switch...

Just got back from our trip to Shaver Lake. Had a good group of Toyotas this year for the annual NorCal SoCal run to bald mountain trail!

Got accepted into the San Marino Motor Classic 46-84 Japanese Car category! From what I know, it’s like the pebble beach/concours of the Los Angeles area. I plan on tackling the headliner project before the show August 25. Aside from that, we...

Here is a high quality photo from the Toyotafest event. It was overcast that day and most of the stuff on my phone looked bad, so I have been patiently waiting for them to post theirs lol.

The oem battery clamps weren’t very winch friendly and they were loose on the terminals after all these years. So I swapped them out with some USA made Milspec terminals. Still need to wire the winch in permanently but at least it will be easy...

Used the Tacoma as an anchor and had my father-in-law help drag the brakes as the line spooled up!

Last but not least the long awaited @OPMACHINE bumper has arrived! Unfortunately it got a little banged up in shipping cross country, but they took care of me and I will need to get it re-powder coated. For now, I had to mount it as is so I...

Cleaned out the interior and deep cleaned the floor mat Re-installed the skid plate and rear bump stops. Finally took the time to remove every vacuum hose and re-oreintate them so they show less of the text. This was actually driving me...

Got the FJ40 & Tacoma rendered to print some stickers for the Toyotafest show next month. The sticker quality was pretty crappy so I’ll have to use another company on the second go around, but these will do for freebies to people lol.

Treated the new door seals to some shin-etsu grease. Had some left over from using it on my s2000 soft top seals and decided to give it a shot on the 40. Apply thoroughly by hand, allow to soak, buff off and final wipe with a fresh towel...
