I saw the beige 80 on beadlocks on the to sea sky highway! I wanted to attend Cruiser Days, unfortunately it was the only day my friends could do Hut Lake near Squamish.
Got the toybox installed. 201:1 is going to be so helpful in the 60!
I still need to pick up a mini truck transfercase mount then build a skid plate/ crossmember for the toybox.

I started the Marlin Crawler ToyBox install. I’ve seen some people have issues with the H55F output shaft retention where the shaft collar can shift over time.
To address that, I had a new split shaft collar made with mechanical engagement into the groove on the H55F output shaft instead of...
Im pretty sure I used wolf steel and it was pretty good. you can see what I did/outcome in my build thread. I used Rockers, dog leg/rear wheel well on both sides. I am a DIY-er and have no experience with cruiser corps panels though.
