    Yeah I feel the same way about my FJ60, I've been just waitin for the 2F to die for a few years now before I put a 350 in it. I thought I got lucky when my water pump failed on a trip from the Canadian Border to Spokane, it was pretty much maxxed out on the temp needle. Somehow the head...

    Yeah qrz definitely has a nice site and a TON of users. Most of the users there were actually very helpful and freindly. I think out of 20 or so responders to my post there were only 2 truly negative people posting. But of course as always, a few whiners make the whole post look like a...

    Yeah I live in Eastern washington, I cant believe how cheap vehicles usually are here (and full of rust). Thanks for the advice on the prices, I have the cash to get one now but am probably gonna take my time so I can get a good deal. I sure would like to find one with factory Lockers (if...

    Geesh, enough already.... Well here goes.... First of all I never asked anyone about the legality of what I do, I am asking a technical question. I also never said anything about Ham radio being better for long distance communications. Secondly, I think your just retorting because I...

    While I appreciate your efforts Dave I must disagree with what you say.... oh wait, nevermind. lol No seriously, I really do appreciate what your advice. I had no idea that those 91-92's even had an FJ designation. Thats pretty cool that they have less electronics than the later...

    I appreciate your concern Hugh, and the time you took to write that up. I have been toying with the idea of getting my amateur license for quite a while now. I like all the toys you get to play with, especially the handheld units. The technology you guys get to play around with makes CB...

    Apology accepted :) And I would be more than happy to give you my 60 for 800 bux. As long as your wife lets you sell her BJ60 and FZJ80 to me for 4,000. /rimshot Her's doesnt have an airbag now does it? Man I hate it when they go off... lol

    I remember when you started the site and it was being advertised on the forum at Coolcruisers. All you had on the front page was that pic that was had you in the drivers seat of your 40. I was thinking, that dude sure thinks he's buff to be postin a pic of him in a tank top... lol I was...

    I appreciate it Dan. And I sure as hell hope I dont fry anything :) I know how much those things cost. And I really didnt think that people would have a problem with what I was doing. And to be fair I think those negative posts were disingenuous flames. I know how it works, I've been on...

    Oh please.... you really think that I am gonna believe that someone with all of 18 posts cares so much about this forum that he wants to squash all the illegal activity that Landcruiser owners may pursue? You need to get off your self righteous high horse and get over it. You flamed me, I...

    Actually its not "highly illegal", just like Desmogging or having uncovered off road lights is not "highly illegal". The FCC used to regulate CB power in the 70's and 80's as a rule. The only way they do so now is if someone is causing serious mischeif or harming their neighbors. they...

    I understand that he might be concerned about my illegalities :) I hope that my having a desmogged FJ-60 doesnt upset him too much, that is also Blatantly Illegal where i live. To me it just seemed like plain old fashioned newbie bashing, not concern. And I did mean to quote Squeezer...

    While we are on this subject let me share a reason why a high powered CB set up is a great thing to have in an off road vehicle. First of all when I say High-powered Im talking about 200 watts or so like Woody's friend. That amount of power is less than most Ham operators amplifiers, it will...

    :-\ I dont know where this kind of hostility came from.... I've owned my FJ-60 for years and have taken it all over the backwoods up here in Eastern Washington. I have no desire to drive anything else other than a Cruiser (well maybe a Supra). I do however have desire to get a more...

    Intereference from high powered CB radio?

    Yes its a serious question and to answer the question about how why I would need that much power... I talk on Ch 6 and 11 all the time and you really cant get heard on those with anything less. I like to be the loudest guy in Wa. St. sometimes. The type of talking I do is more of a...
