    Pulled a Ricky-Bobby, Prices to fix body damage?

    It turns out my dad used to own a 60 which he sold and is just sitting in a field. Ive talked to the owner who is a friend of my dad and he is willing to sell me the bumpers for very cheap. They are custom made from Proffits Crusiers, I have done some research and am think they should fit. He...

    Your exactly right on that ditch. As soon as I got a bit close there was no recovering. Maybe if I had 4wd engaged, such a small decision could have saved me all this trouble:bang: Well you live and learn I guess.

    Yea I messed up really bad. Feel free to give me s*** for it. On my way up the road it was raining.

    I like your thinking! I'll probably take your advice and remove the panels myself. Which bumper do you all recommend? I've looked into the ARB and the 4PLUS but haven't seen any other options.

    I don't have the transmissions paperwork but I do know that it was just rebuilt, brand new BFG K/02 tires, a new battery, starter, fuel pump, rear main seal, and a new oil pan. I will work on getting a written estimate from the mechanic.

    I talked to a different mechanic who said that one of the valv Yea my plan is to do it myself just getting into the project is very intimidating. As for the problem, I talked to another mechanic and he was very confident that two of the valves are just stuck, and are still adjusted properly.

    Thanks for the idea. My dad was involved with our towns land cruiser club and he knows some people that could most likely help out!
