Gave Goldie a bath and vacuumed her out. The doggo was here to for moral support. Also ordered a new fuse box cover and a replacement rear seat belt receiver.

So, I replaced the passenger window motor with a Corolla one, greased up the regulator. Did a bunch of multimeter testing that was a little confusing. The motor would go up but not down when testing. Got the regulator and motor back in and window aligned (felt like five hours). Once everything...

I believe the plastic housings are designed for LED's, but I'm not an expert. Through a friend's recommendation, I found something that are basically like for like replacement of the old FJ62 5x7 square lights. Cutoff and beam pattern seem reasonable to me, but again not an expert.

No way affiliated with this business besides the fact I bought a similar set up from them last year. These totally replace the lights on the 88-90 FJ62. Way brighter than before. My kit came with a relay harness to avoid the extra heat messing with my electric system that wasn't built for these...

I also like strapping stuff in the back vs. the front (like extra gas or a shovel). Either way is good with me overall.

I just talked to Geoff. You definitely sold him "Gray". He still has it, along with "Red" and "Blue". I think Gray is up at his farm in Wisconsin now, Blue is still in Denver, not sure about Red but probably in Wisconsin.

Motor is completely dead. I did the battery hookup trick with the alligator clips. Spun slowly for three seconds and died. Just ordered one for $100 plus shipping. Keeping the regulator, think it just needs more grease.

Yes, I think you are correct on 15x7. It was late when I posted. They were "too small" to put 33" BFG ATs according to a big box tire shop not to be named. Thanks for the tip, I think someone will want them.

I changed it around to put more weight in the middle with the tent. I was having a doodle-bugging problem (more clearance in front than rear) before I put the bigger leaf springs on. I don't love it around corners and might switch it back up.

I do have the FSM. Note: neither master control or passenger switch were working. I took down the door trim and tested the passenger door switch with the multimeter, which wasn't a problem. Checking the wiring switch to the motor required taking the whole darn thing apart, and I wasn't getting...

First night in 2021 coming home with us.

Moab - Long Canyon.

In Great Sands, Medano Pass. I also had the collision center take the old chrome in the front and paint it black, when I had the Sedona accident.

Hello everyone. I hope I'm doing this correctly! I have a 1989 FJ62 Land Cruiser that I bought in 2021. My buddy Geoff owned Blue Ox Overland in Colorado and rented a fleet of four out. After COVID, he decided to downsize and I put my hand up immediately. Had about 180k at the time, give or...
