Thanks Kurt. Will order those today. Yes they appear to be but I messed the core of one up and for $42 each I think I will just go new this time. Sometimes it's just nice to have one less thing to mess with.

Anything that @cruiseroutfit /cruiserteq sells will fit the bill.

Greg, the wheel cylinders are very easy to rebuild. I've done complete jobs on several rigs. Piece of cake and the parts are about a third the cost.

FWIW, I ordered a pair of rear wheel cylinders from cruiserteq on Monday afternoon and received them Wednesday afternoon in OH. Price was fair for Japanese made products and shipping was fast. Pretty much a no brainer.

All of ours are made in Japan. I've never seen a FIC that was not made in Japan. We stock Japanese wheel cylinder rebuild kits for the 55/56 too...

Cruiser Outfitters has new cylinders. https://cruiserteq.com/wheel-cylinder-rear-bottom-9-1971-7-1980-4x-series-lh-bwcr69055lb/

Sorry I was replying from my phone out in the shop so always a crap shoot. Yes you'll be the metric equivalent 4.75mm or what ever it is but yeah 3/16" will work just fine. Anything is repairable given enough time and money but as @RUSH55 pointed...

I'm SOA so I'm using a custom length DOM tie rod tube, 80 Series ends and Marlin Hi-Steer arms.

Come on now... they haven't been a "$75 master cylinder" for decades. I bought a couple from Rock Auto when they started to get hard to get 5 years ago, they were $166.79. Next complain about gas not costing a nickle :D I can't speak to personal...

Sell it and improve the quality of life for someone excited to get it fixed up right :D If you think I'm retiring on the handful of NOS AISIN master cylinders we have in stock, I'd love to sell you a business with the inventory so you can retire...

Front disc conversion from a later model 40 or 60, and keep the rears stock drum. I’ll use either an Aisin FJ60 or and early 80 series master. That will last a long time and you’ll be a lot happier with the way she stops.

IMO, it actually isn't hard to justify for many. $375 for an discontinued OEM (Aisin/Advics is OEM) part that will last another 30-40 years (or far more by tossing in a Japanese rebuild kit), is pretty modest imo. Note, we (Cruiser Oufitters)...

wish I could make this. A few hours in the LCHM and a couple of stories from Kurt is not enough!

Even back before 2018 SAS @mesa man @Mesa Woman

The Aerodynamics seem legit ?

There are often a attendees with 'For Sale' signs in their personal vehicles, not uncommon at all. However it's no Toyotathon :D

I want to bump this and encourage those of you that haven't signed up for the show and shine to do so. Would be rad to have some built 250s, Gx550s and LX600/700h participate. https://cruiserfest-show-n-shine.vercel.app/vehicles

I want to Thank @cruiseroutfit for posting this camping map. I have a lot of messages asking what we need or what to bring. Honestly this is all new to all of us. This has been a big undertaking. So much on the 45 has been rebuilt, re designed...

EDIT: Your front locker CAN lock EVEN IF the rear IS NOT locked. I incorrectly stated if the front would not lock if the rear wasn't locked. CDL REAR LOCK FRONT LOCK

Sounds good, let me know when you're ready and we'll hook you up!

So when I get paid and can afford a new one I definitely will

Used the tauler jack for the first time to help a buddy swap an axle. Works awesome with fine control.

We would love to help! We can ship tomorrow for delivery as soon as Tuesday morning.

@cruiseroutfit call them in the morning and pay for expedited shipping should be there by Wednesday!
