Added a leaf to the fronts this weekend. Painted everything. And I don't think it fixed anything.
35.75 to fender on drivers side
36.25 on passenger side
I need to drive it a little still, but I don't think that gets me where I should be.
Still printing these. BTW I measured for someone and these adapters give 2" of clearance from the speaker mounting surface. This is typically how depth is measured for speakers.
I do not. I got them done at Rain City Wheel Repair here in Kirkland Washington. The owner told me he sprays all the bumpers and off-road things people bring him with this same stuff.
5 leafs
And I went from this:

Granted the before picture is just the engine and no fenders or hood, radiator etc. Did I really add enough weight to compress the whole suspension that much? I can see that the front 3rd member has actually kissed the oilpan. I assume I can maybe lift...
Pretty bummed my OME HD kit has sagged this much over the few years I've had it. On 32" tires I'm only at 35" on the fender opening up front. Who has Kit recommendations for an FJ62 with a front bumper? I'll probably keep the shocks but just replace the leafs. The R2.8 is only 500 lbs which...
I finally got all the rusty and greasy skid plates re-done locally. Really happy with the results and the texture. Now just need some fresh new hardware to install them.
One of the issues with running the engine harness into the cab the way I did was that the stock glovebox insert was deep enough to run into it. Instead of cutting a nice insert up and trying to glue it back together, I decided to try and challenge myself a bit with an aluminum project. I want to...
I'm selling a car and the shipper is supposed to call me before arriving so I can't guarantee that I will 100% be there if the car hauler calls out of the blue, but I'm planning to.
I got the HJ61 turbo tachometer finally all figured out. The green light is a "soft fault" if and when the engine throws a code but you can keep driving. The amber light is the "wait to start" and the "hard fault" light. I need to add a resistor in series to tone down the green LED a bit. The...
Hey all. It was a pretty crazy end to the year, but I did get some stuff done. Spent a good portion of my cruiser time doing Cruiser Cult things.
I built a second Eaton RTMR fuse and relay panel for the house battery. Put it on the passenger side.
Sorry about the instagram photo. It's pretty...
