took some sunset photos of my LJ73

i will try over the weekend and will write here. my first plan is to approach from underneath indeed.

Hello everyone! I’m planning to change the oil filter on my LJ73, but I’m not sure about the best way to access it. As you can see, the filter is visible behind the right front tire. Should I try to reach it from that side, or is it easier to access from underneath the engine? I have a...

can you detail a bit on how you replace the mirror? I am also planning to do it on my lj73

Recieved some stickers and letters by post today :)

discovered an off-road park close to where i live. served as a great chance to test my skills as well as traction and 4wd system of the truck. this was our first off road experience since I bought her. it was a nice feeling to follow fully modified new jeeps, suzukis, hiluxes and mitsubishis...
