Hopefully my chicom Harbor Freight FB marketplace welder lasts for a few welds :wrench::wrench:

I sure will be to start with. This is the original seat to the vehicle. Photo I took before building the tunnel. I'll grab another tomorrow with the tunnel. Have also picked up a YETI Cooler cup holder set up.

I have seen the headrest mod done with an Excursion third row as well as those didn’t come with them. My rig has two offroad bucket seats and 4-point harnesses in the back. I need to switch to a bench to fit all three kids, but I have the...

Everyone has opinions on locking differentials so I might as well add mine to the mix. I'm a selectable guy so no Detroit, or Lock-Rite or whatever for me. I would probably look at the Harrop e-locker if I wanted to lock my rear diff.

And now that’s done. NEXT!

A busted birf...

That would solve a few problems, wouldn't it?!?

Great pics! I remember Frank's 40/80. That was a fun little club for a minute...

That is a sweet gauge setup, adding that the laundry list of things to do someday. I don’t dislike my Autometer gauges, but I don’t love them either.

Speedhut gauge brackets.

Set the body on the chassis this morning. Should lower down about perfect with all the weight I need to still add. Figure about 2" drop in rear and 4" in the front. Looking for a .75-1.00" rake when finished. Stretched out at 108.75" wheelbase...

I’m usually in the 80s section, but figured I’d hop over here for once. I wouldn’t even have a Land Cruiser if it weren’t for my dad—he bought his ‘79 brand new and daily drove it everyday until the mid-2010s. Growing up, I remember riding...

If I remember right it just wouldn’t do it, I don’t remember the specifics but I do remember reading in the manual that was a problem. I wanted to keep some meat frozen solid, too much to ask I guess.

As long as the frame is solid, you can repair most of the body. My first 55 sat for 10 years before I had the body work done, a 1977. Then a carb fix and it ran great. Being in the Northeast salt zone, it did eventually rust again. Purchased...

My first Cruiser was a 1977 FJ55 I bought in 1987. It was just starting to bubble in all the usual spots. It was my DD and I took it to Assateague Island to drive on the beach. It was a blast. But the boxed frame held sand over the years and...

I have a Truma and a National Luna dual zone. The National Luna is in my camper, works ok but has difficulty with big temp splits between the two zones. Sips power though. The Truma I have yet to use as a dual zone. It’s big but seems built...

I had my ten minutes of time in the shop today, got the Moser axle bearing cut off. It's totally different and what I believe to be is the wrong length. The bearing seat has a spacer pressed on to try and make the flange width correct (it's 2.4"...

He belongs in a rap video 🤣

Happy 4th everyone!

Looks great, I love the stance!

I've been saving up pictures for a year, so maybe it seems fast but I'm ready to get this thing moving! With one kid in college and two doing high school rodeo my time disappears faster than I want. Oh yeah, work gets in the way too.

Be still, my heart.😍

Doesn't have to be a cruiser, any Toyota will do!

WDE! Class of '84. My pig is in the middle of body work and although they are sandblasting, sanding, etc., they are also having to cut a lot of parts apart. Many areas on these pigs are layered and totally untouchable unless you tear/cut them...
