Too bad I missed this. This makes me sad.

Thanks Rick, that looks easy enough to install. I had heard of correction devices, but haven't researched them. This will have to wait until after my trip as I still have some other things to install before we go. I figure my ratio is about 1.13, so Yellr will work.

Re-gear is complete on the FJCruiser. Drove it to work today and there were no problems. 4.88s may be on the high side since at 65 MPH, it is running 2500 RPM and the speedo is reading 74 MPH. Oh well, great for wheeling but terrible for highway and mileage. Good thing it is not a daily driver.

Sheri and I did this trip in 2002 with a 4Runner. Time for Colin to experience the road trip. Rear axle is all done. Front end is disassembled and clamshell is removed. My skills with rusty bolts has improved as I haven't broke one yet.

Haven't done much with the trucks in several years, but this is the weekend for regearing the FJCruiser. Installing 4.88s and an ARB air locker in the front. We are going to this year's FJCruiser Summit in Ouray, Colorado followed by a week in Moab.

This guy gets it. FJ40 in Colorado.

http://jalopnik.com/why-are-the-feds-obsessed-with-seizing-these-peoples-ol-1672381729 Great article about the difficulties the Land Rover community is having with importing trucks. A couple bad apples abusing the process. Hopefully, nothing drastic changes in the law.... I still have certain...

I also recently picked up an 1102 from Fort Drum. I found some 33x12.50-16.5 used tires on Craigslist so that I can change them myself and keep the original wheels. Hoping to get them swapped out this weekend. I will take before and after height measurements.

Wanted: 33x12.5-16.5 I picked up a M1102 trailer from Fort Drum last week and want to lower it just a little. The trailer has the humvee wheels (16.5 x 8.25) and tires (37x12.5-16.5). Looking for any used tires 33x12.5-16.5 or something close to mount on these wheels.

I missed that bit of news. Good to know. Thanks.

Congratulations Randy. The color really pops on the finished product and of course your signature grill work. Great job!

1.75 cords. Loaded this M105 to just when the helper springs touched.

103 and still played the piano... I lost my other grandmother 2 months ago and she was 93. Anyway, crisis averted. Scott found another partner, a Toyota mechanic no less. Good luck Scott and Jason and shame those rovers and heeps.
