    Troopie frame off

    Well Pumpkin, your information was very helpful. Knowing the bars extended into the tub 8 inches made all the difference in the world. It gave me confidence, once I had about 7 inches pulled out, to keep going. And sure enough, there was an end to the bar. And Fast Eddy's advice on the sawzall...

    Troopie frame off

    Help! I've recently come back home from an extended stay at the home of my elderly parents and have gotten back on the rebuild. I'm about to lift the body off the frame, as soon as I get the bows and the windshield off. I have a question about the B pillars. I guess that's what they're called...

    Factory FJ40 Soft Tops, Bikini Tops, and Dusters.

    Greetings Marshall. I've been out of town taking care of my parents and just got back. I'm back on the rebuild now and would like to follow up with you on the troopie soft top. I'd like the sandlewood color. The distance between the door (pictured here) and the back of the bucket is 89 1/2...

    Factory FJ40 Soft Tops, Bikini Tops, and Dusters.

    Marshall, I saw another post where you stated you had had a heart attack. I trust you're doing better. How are you? I'm really interested in a soft top for my troopy. I could use it as soon as you can get it done. If you can do this, I'll get the color and material requests to you. Again, I...

    About to start my "Frame Off".

    Linda and I took the old girl out for one last cruise before I start taking her apart. The Land Cruiser, not Linda. We even took our 8 month old puppy, Moose. Tomorrow, I'll start disassembling starting with the top and coming down. I've replaced many components and have many more sitting on the...

    Camo, can't find my truck.

    Anybody seen my truck? Don't park it in the bushes. You know how little boys are, always wanting to play with army trucks. I couldn't help it.

    Help with my overheating rig.

    No, I had a bad sending unit. When I changed that, I discovered I had no overheating problem.

    Open Headers

    I drove mine with an open header about 10 miles to the muffler shop without the collector attached. Yep, it was loud. I can't tell if it did damage to the engine but some more of my hair fell out. But it does that about every day anyway. I just look for stuff to blame it on.

    Help with my overheating rig.

    I got the gauge cluster panel from trailcandy.com. It took several months to get the panel after I had ordered it but he did keep in touch and let me know the status until it was shipped. The finish on the panel is very good as you can see in the picture. I had no problems at all with fit. I...

    $70 EBAY Distributors Who has bought one?

    I finally installed one of these and the difference is astounding. I no longer have a rough idle, the timing is much easier to set and she starts with just the touch of the starter. I regapped the plugs to around .55. One of the best things I've done so far. "When you pull the original dizzy...

    Help with my overheating rig.

    After replacing everything that water touches except the block itself, and the heater core, I replaced the instrument panel and I found I had no overheating problem to begin with. After she gets up to temp, it stabilizes right at 185-190 and stays there. Since I'm planning to keep the ol' girl...

    Rainman's Cruiser art... tshirts, posters, magnets

    I got one of Rainman's shirts like the light green RRR shirt at the top of this page and I'm surprised at the quality and crispness in detail. I'm glad I ordered one, but disappointed in myself for ordering only one. Count me in on the next run. Thanks Rainman, rog

    Help with my overheating rig.

    Yesterday, I ran the beast up to temp with the Cascade solution still in the engine. As soon as it cooled, I drained it and flooded the engine and rad with fresh water. I had the block drain out and stuck a hose in the radiator inlet and allowed it to run for about 20 minutes while I grabbed a...
