    Builds Builds: Bad Memory 1974 FJ40

    Although I still plan on driving it till the salt flies its time to start listing out plans for this winter so I can hold myself accountable to them. First up another new exhaust manifold gasket. I must not have done a great job installing the one from two years ago and it definitely has a leak...

    Mohican Area Meetup

    Thought I would start a new thread here instead of hijacking RCLC's post. I know some of us would be interested in getting together this fall for a light trail run and get together around Mohican. I figure lets see the interest and then list some dates. @MeefZah @Jdc1 @pb4ugo @aging fleet...

    Wanted to mention these jack stands as well. They were super useful installing the rear leaf springs. If anyone in northern Ohio ever needs a set hit me up and you can borrow them.

    Finally got around to putting the rear leaf springs on. It sat around for a few months but finally my wife said she wanted to take it for ice cream so I got to work and got it back on the road. Also installed the new dashpad that had been sitting around.

    Off to a Good Start. My '74 40 Series

    I will be curious to see what you find with this. I have the same issue when I put my doors and soft top on. I have gone through the gaskets under the wind shield and it all looks good.

    What have you done to your Land Cruiser this week?

    Temps are getting a little cooler so top and doors are on. Thinking this is the winter I let @Jdc1 take a look at refurbing the doors.

    Fixed the shorted out wiring harness for the wiper motor. PO had used a trailer harness at some point in the past. I ended up doing the same. Maybe the winter I’ll see if Coolerman has one and I can rewire it. But the goal is driving so it’s ready for fall!

    I was on my way to pick up my son from school when I noticed that my amp meter was going negative with the turn signal on. Didn’t think too much of it but then about a mile later I noticed smoke coming from the wiring harness that goes through the windshield. Guessing I just crimped the wires...
