    OY Puget Sound Area Cruiser Owners!!!

    Just found this portion of MUD via Google. I was looking for some info on Kaner for a buddy, and found that the South Sound Cruisers had done Kaner, Shoestring, etc. Good Times! I'll be keeping tabs on this section of MUD and hope to meet you all soon.

    FJ62 4WD Solenoid - Another Option

    A couple weeks ago after a brief 4WD outing, my 4WD light stayed on. On closer inspection, the front drive shaft WAS engaged due to a solenoid that failed. I searched MUD and discovered a few options for replacement, then went to the Toyota dealer here in Tacoma. Of the options available...

    FJ62 Tranny issue

    How many miles are on your transmission?

    Total Miles on Rig

    194,000 (or so) and running strong. No major issues, just standard maintenance. The output shaft on my A440 auto tranny is beginning to make the tell-tale "CLUNK," but I expect it to go another few thousand miles before anything serious transpires. At some point I, too, plan to do the...

    what is the hardest trail in your area?

    Glacial material would be rounded. Sharp, angular stuff like that would likely be material that cleaved off of a wall/cliff somwhere above (likely via "frost wedging" or other type of physical weathering). Crazy ass trail!

    New ARB bumper install

    Isn't the "Beauty, Clark" comment from Strange Brew? Clark was the court officer that offered up the bullets to stop the nose bleed (Hey Clark, can we get a couple of your bullets?). When it worked, one of the McKenzie brothers said: "Works good - Beauty, Clark!"

    bed payload --

    I hauled two loads of rock for modifications to a retaining wall about two years ago...the first load was 1100 lb.; the second was about 975 lb. I've got OME med springs in the rear. The Cruiser didn't seem to mind either trip, and I've had no negative reprecussions from having done this.
