Looking through the forum, I see that people have had similar issues. Hmm.

Ugh. I wanted to save time by spending money on Planted Technologies seat brackets and they are off. Well, the passenger side at least. I haven't tried the driver side yet. I reached out to them last week and still haven't gotten a reply. I...

Since my dome light wire has long since disappeared down the passenger side B pillar, here’s a shot to remind me in the future that there are two channels… One tubed and one free.

So I've got a steering wheel shimmy that only appears at 70-75 KPH. No vibrations slower or faster. Shakes less when accelerating, more when coasting, about a half inch shimmy travel each direction on the steering wheel. What kind of gremlin...

It's more than meets the eye.

It's just a truck. 😁

Well, that’s pretty cool.

Some more shots ...

I'd guess freight on these is probably $500+ because of the bulk and requiring 2+ pallet positions; it's essentially the footprint of a prius.

I'm questioning how likely it is I'm really going to use it in a way that I need the pop top.

North Carolina and Seattle. Why are you guys so far from me!

I'm on the fence, but I'm up by Seattle.

I think @theglobb wasn't sure if he was going to install his or not. I can't remember if he put his on yet.

Anyone from this old group buy NOT going to install their pop top? I know, wishful thinking. 😁

looks like good times. hey Dave many of us have been through the heater install, reach out if you need any help.

Man, it was good to see you last night. Dave helped me sort out some electrical gauge issues in my 74 series. Good times.

Galen also gave me a heater core! Now to figure out what other parts I need before tearing into it

I installed a new glove box door that I got from @bottombracket last night. It's interesting that the locking latch assembly from the old door fits the new non-locking door with no issues.

Well, she rolled over 500k km yesterday! Still running strong.

Great to see someone using their troopy as a van! And like any good van the fesh fesh never really truly goes away completely.

Awesome. Always pay it forward.

A few things on my punch list for SAS9. Fluid changes to Amsoil and all new Toyota hardware for the brakes. I got lazy last year driving over the passes to SAS8 and boiled my brakes coasting downhill with a trailer. Since then I’ve had pedal...

I also ordered the Planted 75 series seat brackets. I really hated to spend that much money ($185 each side) on brackets, but I don't have spare time to make something nowadays. Now I have to wait for them to fab them up. 😂

Got the fridge back in, too.

I worked on my rear cargo area panels and electrical system last week. I designed a couple of 3D prints for the vents and one large print to cover the fuse block cubby.
