King of the Hammers is Feb 2nd-12th. Just an FYI because some people might go to that either of those weekends. The first weekend of it is usually the regular desert races though so there might not be as many from this crowd out for that part of it.
I was only able to be there in the morning for a little while around 11am. Bummer I missed you. The pig has been sitting way to long at the shop. They were in Vista but moved to the high desert a year and a half ago so its over 2 hours away from me now. He finished the full cage and seat...
I just posted in the other thread but here's the link to about 50 photos from today. https://offroadaction.ca/2022/01/08/1st-annual-cruiser-summit-at-summit-steel/
There were a couple pigs, one being Pat's of course. I was trying to get back over there with my T100 today but not sure if its...
Great turnout today Pat! I posted about 50 photos on my Off Road Action site. 1st Annual Cruiser Summit at Summit Steel - https://offroadaction.ca/2022/01/08/1st-annual-cruiser-summit-at-summit-steel/
The cage is done and seats are mounted. I have the 2005 Tundra engine and trans ready to go. I have all the shocks, rear 9" full floater, front Ruff Stuff 9.5" housing and FJ80 front axle parts for it. I have the wheels and tires. I have all the weatherstripping except the rear side doors 1/4...
It looks awesome even without paint! Mine is still at the SRD shop and I need to borrow or rent a truck to get the engine/trans and axles up to them... When I started my project I secretly thought I might get mine running before yours but that's not happening. LOL
Are you talking about the rear tailgate/door or the side rear doors? SLO doesn't have the fixed glass rubber for the side rear doors on their website. I've been looking for a couple years. A guy on Facebook recently said he is making molds for some of the rubber we need and that is one of...
Ah ok, makes sense now. I hope it works for you guys!
I haven't been on here for awhile. I'm guessing there hasn't been a solution for the rear side door fixed window glass gaskets yet? That's the only thing I need for weatherstripping.
Curious if it fits also. But not sure why anyone would do that when the FJ55 windshield gaskets have been available for $60-70 for along time. Here's one on eBay. Windshield Weatherstrip Seal Gasket for 68-80 Toyota Land Cruiser FJ55 | eBay
I just noticed my last post in here was 4 years ago. Since then I completely rebuilt my Action-Tec team bike. I found a crack in the frame and had my friend thats a frame builder weld it. I had American Powder Coat in Escondido, CA put a fresh coat of red on it.
Last year I came across this...
Hey everyone, unfortunately I don’t have much to update but some more work has been done with the cage and the seat mounts are done. Next is getting the engine and transmission to the shop so they can make the mounts. After that I’m going to have them put in the axles and suspension and then it...

Hey everyone, I just discovered this section of the forum. Legacy Brewing has been having off road meet ups every third Wednesday of the month and they are having their big show of the year on a Saturday June 22nd.
Here are photos from last years show on my website. 2018 Fuel The Desert Off...
Supposedly you need two per side to make it work right. At $60 each it's still a little cheaper than the new ones that used to be available.
Does anyone have any ideas for other vehicles that might have something similar to the rear side door fixed window rubber gaskets? I never bought them...
You just paint it the best you can. I painted the entire cage in my T100 prerunner with a spray gun and automotive single stage paint. There is very thin paint or none where you can't get to with the spray gun but being inside it isn't really a problem or noticeable. For my FJ55 I will be...
SRD has been working on the cage. I took these photos last week. If it’s not done already it should be soon and they will start mounting the seats next. Then I have to bring the engine and trans down there to get mounts made.
