I am going to try to make my own gasket for the lens to housing. I am also going to explore what it takes to pour my own gasket as compared to cutting one out of rubber.
It is a two part resin mixture based on weight not volume. From the time the two parts are poured together, not mixed, you have seven minutes to mix, evac bubbles, pour into mold, and pressurize the pot! According to the manufacture I can shorten...
I plan on doing the low/high and the 3rds at the same time. I have been trying to source the 3rds and get a transfer case to do the work and then swap them in so I have little down time.
I got in on the sale that Nitro had awhile back on the...

Mustard has been parked since my last update for a shop project. I finally got that out of the way and she fired right up this morning. Love this truck.
I may have a recently refurbished 2F distributor available. I converted it to Toyota electronic ignition (using '81-'87 internals) and added a new aftermarket vacuum advancer. I also have good used '78 2F and '81/'82 Tercel igniters that will fit...
