My 1250L Doka Unimog. OM 366A 5.7L Has 8sp fwd and 4 rev with Class over drive. Headed for traction action.

I Have a 2009 LX 570 with the front camera not showing. The front rt. camera shows OK and the lft. does not. Dash switch seems OK as it changes screens. My primary question is firstly any experience with this front one. It is not desirable to throw a $1100.00 to $1500.00 camera at the truck to...

Popular color. How about hunting one up from a yard?

Comfy for sure. Has more squirt than the LX 470 I'd been driving daily for five or six years. Was hitting 350 K on the odo so I bailed. Lots good to say about that LX 470 though. Threw a belt in Beaver UT one morning headed for the south land on I15. Only a Toyota product could have made it to...

My truck is pulled together pretty well now. Well enough to take it out on a few Saturday morning locals get together showing cars off down by the coast Hwy. The Dion blue color is a hit for sure. In a couple of weeks is a big show in Dana Point I look forward to.

Appreciate the offer. I have ordered some longer ones. I disposed of the longer ones I had on the truck for years with no problems. I am planning on the Cruiser Summit to but have an item that may keep me from making it. Will do my best. Eric

Moggy the caps are sitting on the front seat. I know they don't belong there. Photographic proof of correction coming soon. . Thanks, Eric

Mark. Idea sounds good. Can you post an image? I did have longer ratty looking shackles and never a problem. A slide box set up would do the job as well. Thanks, Eric

Got a surprise. Shorter shackle layed up.

New wheels on and some driving.

More work done.
