Pete, Pete is the painter. He's been around here for 30-40 years as a tech and painter. Great work. He uses a Sata for base and Iwata for clear. Not too bad for old school shop painting with a wet floor and no booth. Beats some of the best booth...

Scout is painted. 3 coats of base, 2 coats of stabilizer and 3 coats of clear. Jason TT

6x6 UTE body is in the paint shop. Scout chassis is in the Customs shop. Even a little 40 soft top love... Jason TT

A great day. Pulled the drivetrain and axles. Stripped off all the front end suspension brackets, welded in the new prototype ("stocker plus") front coil conversion and got the LS3 Erod motor mounts set. Jason TT

Scout II is about ready for paint. J

1986 FJ60 drivetrain available on this next build. Passed CA smog recently, PO resealed tcase and the axles have Spartan lunchbox lockers. Motor runs great with rebuilt carb and shifts nicely. Does not have the AC compressor. Jason TT

They eat up the thick clay mud we have down here in AR very well (as I would expect from a MT). I spend a lot of time on construction sites and have to make my way through mud pits left behind by excavators all the time, and I don't even think...

Have probably 20-25k on my 37’s since I put them on around this time 2021, they are worn to the point to where it’s really starting to want to wander all over the road. Lots of rocky wheeling trips. Happy enough with them to replace with another...

I believe the front sway bar from SuperPro is 30mm and the rear is 27mm.

Now that the LC is back on the road, I'll be making my bi-weekly trips to the Ozarks. Fall hasn't happened yet. I've been studying how the sunlight hits the bluffs and trees at different times of the day to be ready when fall colors arrive. I...

Superpro has these right now on their website for $319 😀

Getting drive time on @Kmonty66 rig to clear codes and take it to SMOG. All looks good so far. @Butt Ugly Chuck took a ride with me (33 miles to clear all monitors) and then went to breakfast. I got to jump on it pretty good from a stop and...

So it suppose to go into this 3rd brake light location in the hatch that is a bolt in replacement. https://forum.ih8mud.com/threads/multifunction-chase-light-mcl-100-series.1302340/ My understanding to install is that it will bolt right up and...

Went by ace hardware this morning to see if I could Jerry rig the right screw. It works okay , but I think I need the right screw to apply the right amount of tension onto the mount. I receive the OEM style screw from wits end for a final test...
