Counting miles! Feelin’ fine

3/5/19 - Completed the rear main, oil pan, and torque converter seals. Replaced output shaft bearing. next up, Exhaust tail pipe!

Did you guys make it? How about a March meet up? Sunday 3/3 or 3/10?

Count me in! as long you allow Hooligans & Miscreants. I have a vehicle and motorcycle accrual problem and an un-diagnosed and un-medicated short attention span. I like to make things better than I found them, and once I have them fixed up or road ready, its "whats next" and move on. I love...

Big fork in the road today. Backup a week or two LTS auto performed a bunch of stuff I should have done, but I got anxious and I want joy now! They did a nice job setting the valves and timing, flushing and replacing all fluids, grease and inspect front to back with new drive belts.. the works...

Picked up rear wheel center caps. Look legit in correct Toyota packaging but the clips extend passed the wheel that sits flush against he drum. Causing them to gap when the wheels are torqued to the lugs. Any insight?

I’m just going to list them as a set of four. Are you close by? (Boise?)

Found these wheels on CL. Just $40 not looking too good, but straight. The wheels cleaned up well! Before/after. Cruiser dropped off at LTS Auto, Boise ID for all fluids, Belts, valve adjustment, and tune up.

So I answered a few of my own questions. Hit up the parting out sellers and being patient. Those are the only wires. It’s pretty cool they’re universal from 1982-2017 wow

Question: I want to fill the void in my dash but the cruiser came without the factory stereo which means no mounting brackets. From what I’ve found they seem proprietary to the FJ62? (Angled bottom tab) any suggestions or work arounds with this? Borrowed pic. Also, are these two meta plugs the...

Sunday: rolled er out and ran engine a few minutes, it would get too warm and burning off what has accumulated over a few years. Shut er down, I bled the brakes again and got really good pressure. installed new marker lights. Spent most of the day cleaning upholstery and putting panels back...
