    What have you done to your Land Cruiser this week?

    HaHa, the instructions say about one hour, but that's for people who don't have spatial dyslexia. I got lost at least six times and had to undo the thread 4-5 holes to pick up either a missed hole or wrapping the thread over instead of under the wheel. Your results most certainly will vary ;)

    What have you done to your Land Cruiser this week?

    Splurged on a leather wheel cover! Went from this: To this: To this: To this: And it only took five and a half hours, with frequent screaming breaks! So worth it!

    What have you done to your Land Cruiser this week?

    "You can amortize the cost over those seven years, for accounting purposes with the princess." Amortize - derives from the Vulgar Latin Admortire, meaning To Kill. So yeah, in this situation, seems about right!

    CARB COOLING FAN – ON THE RIGHT TRACK? (with pix)

    AND NOW, THE REST OF THE STORY Plan A did not pan out (no surprise there), but a couple of Mudder Brudders stepped up and helped me get going with Plan B. What I did I already had the fan, control relay box and thermo sensor: All I needed were a control box male plug and wire terminals...
