Buy one of my vent hose kits and I’ll throw in a pickup tube for $30… They’re all usually dried out and most are NLA.

Change the pickup tube as well; the old one is likely rusted and it's only a $60 part.

Groove Toyota in Denver honored the recall with no issues in October 2020. Went back there with another eligible 60 in December and they denied me … got a surprise call last week that they changed their mind. Did the pre-inspection and order some...

If you're considering FJCo & CR, the Wheel Vintique Series 12 smoothies are similar styling. 16x7 4" BS

I *think* it was stainless steel trays that made a relocation kit for that when running dual batteries... Stainless Steel Battery Trays for TOYOTA LANDCRUISER How do the 24v system trucks do it?

300 Mile Mississippi loop today. Flawless except for the road falling out on me and getting my quarter panel. Could have been way worse. Photo dump.

Picked up a set of 5 used 40 Series steelies for cheap. They’re the welded variety and only a few years old. I ordered some new chrome caps from Toyota, then went to a mom-and-pop tire shop and had my rubber swapped over to the new wheels...

Off to powder coat

Here is the batch of sample glove boxes for the MUD members who are helping with the development. Stay tuned......

here is how I ran mine. There are many threads on Mud, but probably hard to sift thru them all..... The top port goes to higher pipe at firewall, the bottom hose below that goes to the lower pipe firewall closest to passenger side with a brass T...

Started reassembly after 18 months of rust repair etc.

New tie rod ends, locking hubs, rotors, front knuckle rebuild and a little clean and paint.

I was able to get a glove box ran on the CNC and tacked up. I need to powder some wheels so I will batch them together with the glove boxes. These new ones are smaller in width due to the various opening sizes where the glove box goes and I added...

A lot of new parts.

New shoes. Thank you @cruisermatt @HemiAlex & @samc2447 for making this happen. Worked out a deal that worked for Matt and I and Alex happened to be in Matt’s city. Picked them up and dropped them at Coops last month in Houston. They made it...

I have been working with a few MUD members to make some changes to the glove box design. @mdw83fj60, @84Landie, @Dekeman, @repentsinner Added 15 degree angle to top of box. Changed the size of the removable cover for the stock light. I will...

Got a couple more things done today. Pulled the rear quarter glass in preparation for the new headliner, started wet sanding the transition between the new and old paint, and flooded the roof skin / inner structure seam with Ospho. I knew going...

722,776 miles Motor is coming out.

@Dekeman hope you don’t mind me copying you one day: I have an 861 Light Blue Metallic 60 as well, and plan on going with black 40 Series wheels too. Such a good look. Nice work by the way. That thing is looking clean inside the engine bay...

Emerged from hibernation after a long, snowy winter, made bearable only by working on the truck every Saturday. Among things done: changed all AC parts (now works); replaced side cover gasket; Jim C dissy recurve; fixed some minor lower tailgate...

Finished installing the headliner and installed the front carpet. Windshield going in Monday and then I will be able to drive it for the first time in nearly five years. First stop, fill the tank with ethanol free pure gas.

Just building some bumpers. J
