    60 series porn (pictures of the kind that get people like us excited!)

    I've been in Costa Rica 2 and a half weeks and only saw one 60, today. Lots of Prado's, 4runners, 79's, 76's. Some 78's, FJ40's and 80's. The beach towns here are a parade of cool old 4WD's.

    Headliner insulation removal

    Is this stuff natural fiber, like does it burn? or is it synthetic and it melts?

    What did you do with your 60 this weekend?

    I'm looking forward to following this since I have a front axle I'll be doing the same with. On another topic, I crossed into the US of A today to pick up the headliner which I hope to do something innovative with.

    Here's an interesting one, it's a video not a picture but don't know where else to put it. Edit: hmm, that link isn't working properly but there is a video with a 60 in it. I'm not advertising for Slovenia, I swear. You have to click on Copy Link and open in a new tab

    Undercarriage / Underbody Spray - Surface Rust

    If you don't wash the salt off by driving in rain it will stay underneath, constantly absorbing humidity and rusting it out. Nothing beats driving down the freeway in a good rain to completely rinse the underside, but make sure it has been raining long enough to wash the initial gunk off the...

    HJ60 Overhaul, rebuild and engine swap

    Do they salt the roads in winter or do you use studded tires? If salt, then you will want to make sure it is all rust-proofed with inhibiting oils inside and out. For interior space I ripped out the factory headliner since this takes away an inch of head height, which could be the difference...

    What did you do with your 60 this weekend?

    I'm trying to re-attach one of the new rear leaf springs to the axle (spring is already installed between shackle at the back and pin towards the front, just hanging down; axle is supported on wood and jacks). It is the OME heavy, replacing a very saggy stock spring. But the centre locating...

    wheel suggestions

    That's what mine looked like. I mixed up epoxy and put it in a syringe and filled in the cracks around the edge between the welds since they always rust, then painted the whole rim again myself.

    I really want to change the headliner design of the 60 series...

    I was thinking to weld in some attachment points in the grooves in the roof. You then use these to attach roof panels with a button of some kind. That way it's mostly recessed in the groove. You could also use it to hang things as well. I don't like the wasted space above the stock headliner and...

    ‘86 Hj60 cheap but some body damage…should I bother looking?

    Yeah based on that photo there isn't much of quality that's salvageable, due to the rust. The only things that might be good are the engine and transmission / transfer case but without being able to start it you can't assess those. By some miracle the frame might be OK but you need more photos...

    What did you do with your 60 this weekend?

    I got one spring in. I was a little concerned that the shackle would be off kilter for connecting to the spring since the rust swelling from the old c channels, plus new torquing of the replacement channel, might tweak the frame and hanger angle. But it all lined up perfectly. Only one issue...

    What did you do with your 60 this weekend?

    Got one C channel in. Still need some more torquing as it started raining and I only had a 1 foot socket wrench and everything was covered in sticky marine grease. It looks like I cant put one bolt in right above the hanger due to interference with the other bolt. And on the far left, the new...

    80 series rear axle with front axle Tundra brake mod

    I'm about to buy these lockers for the 80 axles I'm putting under my 60. They have the option of the pull T handles and I can't say whether I prefer those or the levers. I like the idea of mounting them on the dash which saves space in the center console area. Any thoughts...

    Tread cracking in 7 yr old A/T tyre that has basically nil wear

    You need to spray them with 303 to prevent this but too late now.

    FJ60 sleeping platform

    I like being able to sit up so I sleep on the floor of my 4runner. I use half the floor and on the other half, I built a wooden platform that almost goes to the roof for most of my stuff. Works well for 1 person.
