Idk, never used one. I've never had a problem with the h/p hose flared end. Is it leaking at the inverted flare or behind the fitting and the pump? There might be an O ring on the back side of the inverted fitting. If you use the fitting you...

So I’m not necessarily buying one off the internet just wanting to know if that’s something others are running on there’s. The shop I had my hose made referred me to another shop a few miles from them. However the shop is closed on Friday and I...

Do you have an actual link to the ad?

I ask because I started my cruiser for the first time for a while and noticed that the power steering fluid was leaking out. Originally I thought it was the hose where the fitting was crimped onto the soft line. I went to the shop where I had...

Are any of you guys running a steering bump tube with an o ring on the pump side of the hose attached in the photo are something similar?

This was a while back but worth sharing. Sure does stand out in a crowd. Coupeville, WA ferry.

And as a reward, we went camping!

@sogafarm Highly recommended for just such an emergency. Endorsed and approved by @Skreddy ..

We had a hitch hiker on the way to town in the form of a rat snake come down under the passenger dash and rubbed my wife’s foot. It was quite the adventure coming to a good place to stop. Im not sure if it’s still in there but I’ve opened up...

Thank you, I try to keep it affordable but with prices going up on everything, it’s hard to do. That’s why I’m considering getting out of it.

My Korean buddy taught me to use a Chinese dictionary. Starts out by counting the number of sticks. I had all the foreign exchange students teach me to say eat s*** and die in their language - making friends and influencing people. Funny about...

Nice find! You mention "No jump seats". I have some nice ones for a '76. Also have (a) rear half doors and (b) nice metal front half doors that match your Cruiser. Best wishes on getting her going. Contact me if interested. I'm in...

Drove to work. A coworker decided to bring in his 60 series.

Any idea what year? 85 is the most sought out year.

Yes it is!

i noticed that too

You do a great job and provide a service almost all of these Landcruisers need. It’s the one part you have your hands on 100% of the time so having it right is important. Charge what you need to; there really aren’t a lot of options out there...

Nice find as well.

Is that a 4Runner back behind your son in the far back?

I've driven past this 40 for a few years and one day on a furniture delivery, My son and I decided to stop and ask about it. It was definitely off the beaten path but seen from the road. Turns out it lived most of it's life in Vail, Colorado...

Nice job saving that one from rusty oblivion! Wishing you luck and patience as you bring it back.

Got the ARB twin mounted up and plumbed

You are my spirit animal.

Definitely not getting easier to do things at 100%.
