Devils Paw 80's latest activity

And I hate say it but I believe your front springs are on backwards. Looks like the military wrap end with the yellow rectangle is installed on the shackle, should be on the fixed frame pin end...your rear spring looks to be orientated...

Did you inform Cruiser Outfitters of this shoddy work by Impulse off-road?

Another reoccurring complaint was that "real" LCs have inline six engines. Granted, the straight 6 and solid axles were common features for 40 years. I remember one guy wrote a scathing screed about the 100 series and its V8 right after this...

I've owned two 200's, three 5th Gen 4Runners, two FJC's, a Tacoma, and three GX's, soon to be four when our Over Trail arrives. The 200's were always our favorite and hands down the best vehicle that Toyota/Lexus has put on the road. I agree, if...

Your video underneath seems to indicate that the transmission end is reasonably tight. The shifter end looks a bit loose and crooked to me, but it's out of the frame for most of video.

How much oil does yours burn?

So that's about 700 miles, and your oil was definitely at the full line when you started? These beasts do have a tendency to burn oil, and yours is high miles. However, 1 quart in that distance does seem a bit excessive. You can direct the...

Did you see this one on Facebook? First year model. Rare! Where are they getting their information? 😆 Log into Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/share/1Bo9T7zdt7/?mibextid=wwXIfr

Yeah, I'm starting to understand a big rattle gun is the preferred method. Shame I don't have one of those :P

Mine has slop front to back, which I imagine is the most common with these. Thanks for the video.

Damn, you sure do have your hands full with that beast. I've never done that job, but was watching a You tube video where a guy finally got the crank bolt loose on 80 series with a high voltage impact wrench.

Yes, more pics. Also if you have another thread going that shows the Unimog please link it. Thanks!

More Pics 😉

I'm good with the interior as is, for the most part. Yes, the steering wheel cover is somewhat worn on the top part and the leather seat bottoms are shot. I don't care! The only upgrades I'd consider, besides the already completed stereo...

Bumper is on and it seems like some of thr bulbs in the back might be the originals for the rear turn and backup lights.

Doors are mostly done. For now at least. Its been a long time since I made door cards and I went at it very differently this time so I will see how I like it later. At the moment they are easy to make so I can change it later. I got the dome...

Most likely no lift needed, and you could lose some of the vehicle's durability and reliability by doing it. That would be my sanity check...

I have Two model 3’s, passed on my cyber truck reservation. The 2022 model 3 (standard range) I got for ~60% off used from Hertz when they dumped their Tesla fleet. It’s on Oahu.

So, you own two cyber trucks, one in Alaska and which Hawaii island? (if you don't mind :))

What does the interior look like?

Asking $20,000 for this classic truck. I have had my fun with this truck. Now I'm getting older and it is time to pass it on for someone else to enjoy. We are located in Orange County California. This pre smog daily driver has many upgrades...

Here:

I've never seen a door that looked like that. The lower door edges have a folded seam, and drain slits. Maybe it's Bondo?

Sell it to your buddy and buy the kid a boring, fuel efficient car as a replacement.
