Had a few minutes this morning, programmed my "real" mileage, per the above instructions...very easy. Went from 70 miles to 248K 🤣 Also filled up the tank, so I was able to calibrate the fuel gauge. I did actually add the Tanks Inc floatless sender...so I used the pre-programmed setting...

I believe you can have your current mileage pre-programmed by Speed Hut, @FJ60Cam? Adding my electrical wizard @gnintz for some details on install. Re: calibration, still playing with the fuel gauge. More to come there!

Hat tip to @FJ60Cam for the design!

Installed my new Speedhut gauges, courtesy of @FJ60Cam - love how they came out. I prefer the vintage look of the 60's cluster, so this was perfect. I went with the GPS speedo and so far, so good. The placed the receiver on the very front of the dash. Also went with the floatless fuel...

Installed the Brown carpet in my 1988 FJ62 - looks amazing! Installed by myself (zero previous experience) over 1 weekend. Front section took the majority of the time, center and rear were very easy. Thanks @dnp

@sschruff Did you ever land on a color? I'm thinking about Anvil for my '88 - I was inspired by this Icon build from last year: I also found a guy in Japan who used Anvil for his 60: Login • Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/oginoyuuzi/ Both of these look awesome - hoping to do this...

Ha! What's the fun in that...less to waste money on!

The Weekend Chief didn't come with a tool set/jack tools. Aside from the bragging rights of owning an original tool set, the lack of tools also made lowering/removing the spare very annoying. PS - Bragging rights are ALWAYS more important....form over function over here! Finding jack tools at...

Nice! Maybe I'll see you around - quite a bit east from you in Patchogue!

Excited to see the finished product! Where in NY are you? I'm on Eastern Long Island - not many of us around here!

Looks great! I can't take credit for the visor mod, big thanks to @Beams37 and this Sun Visors thread! Here's mine! Took less than 10 mins - very easy mod!

Thanks @Skniper ! Agreed - we were definitely stumped by the hole and I couldn't really find similar stories on here. We found the hole during a coolant flush - suspected it dislodged years of dirt, oil, and rust etc. that may have been holding the hole together. The POs didn't seem to ever...

Pumped about the color! I think they rolled it out in 2020 on the TRD Pro. Color name Army Green

Picked up a younger new friend for the Weekend Chief:

Picked up a 2021 Trail Edition in Army Green over the weekend - love how tough this thing looks. Also, looks good next to his geriatric friend (FJ62 Build Thread).
