Yanked the windshield, back window and headliner today with the help of a friend. Small amount of surface rust forming underneath the windshield seal where there wasn't glue and it let some water in. Other than that, looking good.
Started on my new drawer system. Planning on a 2 piece design that is easy to remove and can be removed individually . Left side is gonna be a single drawer that is not full length, leaving space for a secondary battery (Im excited for that...
Well, drove her an hour and about 40 miles to the exhaust shop, man. I really enjoy the power on the highway. Cruising in 5th gear between 75-80 is just really smooth. EGTs while cruising were around 700-800F, water temp around 165-170F, boost...
Just a quick ride in the desert yesterday, FR13 northeast of Phoenix. I somehow managed to surgically remove all the rubber from the frame-side mount of the right radius arm 😯🤔🙂. Shoutout to @richardlillard1 and @twalker9480 for putting some...
Installed a Window Rocket tonight. Easy install other than it’s in the most inconvenient spot to access. The window speed actually wasn’t terrible in the summer. In the winter sometimes I wondered if the windows were going to make it back up...
Spent a few hours buffing trail stripes out of the paint, waxing and polishing so that we could get some more rain. It's like doing a rain dance. Just as I was finishing it started to rain and didn't let up. Drove it anyway.
Sliders coming soon...
Great news!! I am up and running. I want to wholeheartedly thank everyone here, Tim from Colorado Toyota repair, and the awesome guys at Cruisers and Company. I had to step away from working on it to save my sanity, brought it to them (they got...
Follow on from yesterday and removing the old faulty booster.
Got the new booster set up, installed clevis to match position on original. Verified the master cylinder spacing of the booster nozzle/pin (whatever it is actually named). Was spot on...
I also cleaned up the wiring pn my homemade QPM. The fuse box is currently powering a remote controller relay. I will be adding a Victron 100/30 MPPT to the bottom of the QPM for solar charging.
Needed to use my Come Up winch today and found it totally cooked 😤 (Line completely melted.)
No idea what happened but assume something was connected incorrectly…
Did this last weekend, have just been slack on the upload.
The exchange rate and shipping of getting a hidden winch mount to New Zealand was getting stupid, so i managed to learn some basic CAD, drew one, remeasured the wagon, drew it up...
Two weeks, 5 days. She's on the road. Still some cleanup, the only leak she had, was the small hose that goes from underneath the top radiator/coolant outlet. I just missed one small hose clamp. Seems good to go now.
Id like to thank everyone...
