My truck is a wheeler that Ive been bringing back from trail trucks to use for wheeling and traveling. I came up backpacking so living simply is what I know. But I bought a fridge when I was building my 80 and Ive never looked back. This 1976 40... -
Ruby is back on the road!! I reached a milestone on my project today, so I wanted to thank everyone who helped this last year. I bought my first '40 last July. A nice running, original 1980. I decided to make it more capable and reliable so I...

The mini fridge launches an idea(s)... Here in greater "Prestonia", I'm very limited on space in the garage. It's slightly smaller than the old garage (Storage Bld) and its somewhat incumbered by the necessity to store day to day household...

This 40 series owners manual is from a bull catcher fj40 on a cattle ranch in the Australian outback. It even has the red dust between some of the pages. 😊

Place the front end on jack stands and chock rear wheels. Fire up the truck in neutral. Turn your steering wheel all the way to left, then all the way to right about 10 times. Note to see if groaning sound lessens or goes away. Easy to do. Report...

I got mine out of the garage before the fire came. We got lucky as they saved the house minus a few windows and lots of smoke. Blessed.

This is more about getting rid of the Rube Goldberg contraption single stick and getting more positive action. I'm planning on moving to an Orion split case which I heard makes shifting a little more tight. Shouldn't be a problem with twin sticks.

cruiserkev replied to the thread I'm only getting spark when I let off the ignition..I agree. That switch can do strange things when worn out. Mine decided to get stuck with the starter engaged and spinning. Attempted to disconnect the battery quickly but failed, "luckily" the terminal melted off and contact was lost. Fun times...

I present the $28 tailgate! It may not be to everyone's taste, but I wanted a cheap and easy solution to recently going topless and removing the ambulance doors. $23 Heep rollbar hammock and $5 stainless bolt, nut washer combo. Since it's...

Probably a stuck valve from overheating, throw some push rods in it, adjust the valves! These are non interference engines, should be fine As these are bulletproof tractor engines!

Adjusted the valves, leaned out the carburetor mixture, swapped in a new cap and rotor and replaced the air filter. Timing was good so I...

Got my used faded soft top on, and I'm diggin it. Gotta roll it out in the sun to let it stretch a bit. The rear bow is a little low due to rust holes I have yet to fix. 😬
