Consider doing any 70-series merch? Love the head-on shield design you have for the 55 and 60.

One fuel tank. Interesting.

We've been working away on getting parts off our shelf, photographed, and on the CruiserTeq.com website. We have hundreds (really thousands) of in-stock parts yet to process, but progress is progress. Most of these have been available to our...

Years ago I bought a MAF that was new and in a Toyota box off of EBay. When I got it, it didn’t work. Wrote back to the seller telling him this and he cussed me out for being a scammer and told me I was lying. I responded that I had a special...

It's great to see the parts from the other side of the globe going in. Get wax and grease removers, the normal solvent kind and the water soluble style too. Spend extra on them to get the good stuff. Get a zillion shop towels. Use a tack cloth...

My only recommendation with body work: wear a respirator! Your older lungs will thank you!

ALRIGHT! MORE PROGRESS. Cut out the crusty A-pillar and firewall, welded in new firewall section (excuse the gas bottle leaning against the troopy I made a little baseplate thing for it to keep it stablish) Test fitting Got that all...

Had to match the suspension components….OCD🍻

We’re excited to host our 2nd Annual Yotathon Morris Mountain Offroad Park in Delta, AL. The event will be Oct 10-12 weekend. Registration will start Friday morning, but you are welcome to come in Thursday night as well. We will have guided...

Such SUCH a sweet truck. I thought I was the only other person in the world that has a Dobinson's bumper, but now I see that there are two of us.

I don't remember but I'm sure I looked at it from the eyes of an average user versus a retired rocket scientist

I have a 45 qt Whynter with a 100ah LiFePO4 battery and 200 watts of solar - pretty standard system that works perfectly. I swapped over to the metal "bullet lead" type connectors which have been perfectly secure. I keep saying when it dies...

I don't think Toyota Parts Deal is a "thing". I think it's basically an internet front that just scrapes the net for parts and pretends to be a business. I had one good and two bad experiences with them - one was for some hard to find weather...

I’m in AZ and still help folks with parts. Feel free to drop a line.

Refreshed the suspension on the BJ74 over the last couple days, Terrain Tamer parabolic leafs (thanks George and Roarke!), 5.8” shackles and U-bolt flip kits from MAF, & cheap and longer BDS shocks for now. I was able to clean up and reuse the...

Today I put US license plates on my HZJ77! I brought it back from Japan and I have to say this is a major accomplishment for me. About a fifteen years ago I fell in love with 70 series Land Cruisers but figured I'd never have one as an...

Charles, Had a somewhat similar connection this afternoon ... Spent the day completing some maintenance on the 70, including an oil change. When I poured the 40wt in, it ran like 0wt or even worse -water. I stopped and rechecked that I hadn't...

Got my ticket - see you there!

I recorded the first episode of a new Cruiser Chat podcast last night. I found an app that would let me do it "call in style" like radio shows of old. For the first episode I think it came out surprisingly well. I was lucky enough to have two...

💪💪 Yup. Bikes gotta be fun or they become not fun and then what’s the point.

I gotta put my vote in for Ride With GPS. Not only is it a one-and-done bike route magic wand, it has started to replace nearly every other mapping app I have. I pay subscriptions for Gaia GPS and OnX Offroad, but it's just out of habit - RWGPS...

Ride with GPS. I paid for the upgraded version that includes a lot good stuff especially if you are creating routes, sharing them, doing offline downloads, etc. Considering how much I ride now, it’s basically an essential tool.

I have a 2-bike Kuat rack - the Sherpa 2.0. Very solid, stiff, secure. I had to add an extension to my trailer hitch on the troopy to get it to clear the spare, but it's perfect. I have a Kaymar rear bumper with spare swing out. I can open...
