With the quarter panel cut away, I got a pretty good look at some of the other rust repair that awaits me: It looks as though the bottom of the d-pillar will need some attention, along with the bottom of the inner quarter and the last inch or... -

Starting right in on the rust and dent repair on Yukon Jack. First up is the right rear corner, which was crunched up pretty bad. As you can see in the photo, it was pushed in on the side and also from the back, creating a pretty tight pinch...

Welp, I got the Pig moved into the garage just in time for our first snowfall of the year. A few friends were going to help me push it in, but a couple of them bailed last minute so we ended up pushing it in with the 40 series, which worked...

https://forum.ih8mud.com/forums/fj55-iron-pig-preservation-society.51/ Maybe consider sharing in the pigpen. Lots of knowledge down there and focus is on the Pig! Either way these are so cool!

Well, it’s finally time to start a thread documenting the resurrection of this 1977 FJ55 that I bought sight unseen a couple of years ago. I found this truck on Kijiji for $2000 (Canadian $$, that is), the only glitch being that it was located in...

Welp, not using the 60 series box and lexus shaft on my Pigs. But I'm using it. I think I'm gonna pull the 2zz out of the prius and use the electric ps unit for Ornch, and the SOA camo pig probably deserves an 80 series box. I've inhaled a bunch...

Small updates this week. Air Onboard Diff & Gearbox Breathers. Cab leftin the sun. Wiped down with some wax & grease remover. Will be lifting up onto jackstands to grind off all the rubber under the cab. I haven't seen a side profile of this...

Sheetrock….congratulations !! That is the one thing I had subbed out when I did the new room in the house. I preferred the 5/8” thick panels and these guys had it done in 3 visits from Monday to Friday. 10’ x 4 that I could not even budge

Trying to figure out how to haul some sheetrock on my suby. Spent 20 miniutes looking for some plywood for the roof. Completely forgot I now have a functional rig that easily fits a 4/8' sheet of anything... Finally putting her to use :) -

Thanks. Well, i get it. At 97 it was a challenge for me to hoist her up onto the seat w/o bumping her head on the roof getting in. She was pretty stoked I think. she's seen and heard about all the work thats gone into getting the pig running...

Not yet, but the u joints and the greased up zerk fitting certainly made a noticable improvement!

New fender will start you down a rabbit hole if not careful. Before you know it, you’ve got a full frame off resto going on and on and on……

1 did on Blue was 2 1/2". It's posted in there haw I routed it. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🐖👈

Back when I was running without the sway bar, ol’ pal RHINO gave me his old 2F exhaust pipe that was routed just like where you’re wanting to go. Can’t remember if it was 2” or what. I wanted to go through the same spot with the new exhaust, but...

Today makes a full year of having this thing. I may not have driven it, but I got it to make Toyota sounds. I'll take it. I need to get my ass in gear, though. I should have pretty much everything I need to make a (sketchy) driver out of it.

Just throw that sway bar away problem solved.

Eyeballing exhaust, tight fit around the rear bar

Speaking of as stock as possible; I took a few minutes today to pull these puppies out of the clear zinc tub. I have no idea why I find replacing the brand new Toyota screws with the original ones so satisfying. Definitely some kind of mental...

Oh My God!!!!! CRAZY TIME!!!! Are you going totally stock or are you going to fix that which was poorly designed? I have only gotten to where it’s just the floor and firewall!! Page 10 OMG!!!

Still haven't touched a thing, but I snagged a few (un)necessary items. First is a PDM. There's a few flavors out there, but I like this one. Dual bus system, rated at 200a input with 30a output terminal ampacity. Eaton's Bussmann Series...
