Gauges installed, still need to wire them the wiring I got is to short so will extend them and turbo dump pipe welded up. Also got a couple oil pans back from the welder.

Apologies for the delay. Short a component to get things out last week. Should be completed and ready to ship in 7-10 days.
We are also moving all skids to bare metal only. The anodizing has become too expensive. It gets banged up and...
Was putting my ‘92 back together after a deserved full paint job. Clear coat was starting to fail after 32 years. I made new door cards and upholstered them while the 80 was at the paint shop. All that’s left is repainting the front bumper...
I didn't want to delete the LSPV entirely, so I opted to raise it up to match the 4" lift.
Instead of a bracket extension I welded a longer threaded rod on, that way it is fully adjustable from stock to 4+ inches of lift
Manual LHD console...
Another one has been up and running for about a week now. @ttFJC brought his 80 down from MT. C&C Turbo, new injectors, new knock sensors, new O2's, full exhaust, new kickdown cable (yes we have those for the 343) since it was broken, a transfer...
Just ordered the kit as well. The EGR and the P0401 have been a headache for some time. As Colorado tightened the emissions standards for older vehicles it's made it really tough to stay in compliance. One of the reasons the 80 is living a...
Also big congrats to my dad on getting his 1979 FJ40 that he has owned since new back on the road after a 4 year engine rebuild. He had some health issues come up that slowed down the timeline, but he got it done. And man does it purr. His...
Ran home for a much needed Land Cruiser love weekend. In one full day we accomplished the following:
Cut off Landtank 4inch brackets
Install Delta VS 5L Arms
Delta VS frame reinforcement welded on
Red Head Steering Box
Paper clip...
As someone who has installed a few dozen of these over the years including my own cruisers I would not buy these. I don't even quote out Lseat anymore. Have had numerous quality issues with the leather. Sure it looks great to begin with but...
When my Warn M12K was new in the late 1990s, I had an unfortunate incident when the ice broke under the truck and my 91 FJ80 sunk in very cold water up to the windshield. I had to leave it overnight until a wrecker could pull me out. While I'd...
I was driving home from work this morning around 7:00 and I saw my neighbor stuck in their front yard in their van, so I pulled into my neighbor's driveway and asked if they needed some help and proceeded to use the old winch to pull them out
I put a new pipe in whole with the body on.
I compressed the pipe from being round to an oval. Then jacked up on the rear floor for extra room and forced the pipe in. Then using a c-clamp round out the pipe again. The pipe interfaces with a...
Removes the exhaust temp gauge and tells the motor it's always somewhere between 100 and 150c. Apparently that's the magic number.
Head turner
I just tested and cleaned mine, replaced the UFO and vacuum hoses and my code P0402 didn't come...
I traded posts with this poster on my hydro boost thread over the past two days. I guess I didn’t state the answer this individual wanted to see over there.
I’d like to add to your list of sources. These folks set me up with my conversion back...
I explained this to you yesterday in the Hydro Booster thread. Your MC bore is too big for your calipers. Its large diameter moves much more fluid per every centimeter of brake pedal movement. It’s filling your calipers almost instantly and...
Finally installed a small shop heater on the side I work on. I have a mini split on the other side of the shop and it works great just takes a while to heat 1200sqft. This one is 7500 watts and blows directly on my normal work area.
