My neigbor and I are out diagnosing what we think is a broken rear axle on my 1988 FJ62 (grinding, clicking, and oil smell) and the guys don't think it's a Toyota rear end. I'm mechanically uninclined so I said I could post a picture to see if it was or not and how the hell do you remove it...
I'm trying to update the standings in the first post of my 2008 Nascar contest thread and it won't let me.

A quick edit results in a continuous "processing twirl." An advanced edit gives me a database...
I heard about Johnny Cash's Land Cruiser way back in June of this year as documented here:

Received it this morning. 48oz. Porterhouse I got in trade for a NATO Jerry Can(see sig).
Pic below along with it's future demise in the background(Weber grill).
He even packed it in a cute sixer cooler.:cool:
I'm thinkin' about pan-broiling on the grill with a Lodge cast-iron skillet and...

I went ahead and just started ripping cutting stuff out. After each cut, I'd check to see if the Cruiser started. I get pretty far and got rid of the spiderweb of crap wiring..
BUT now I've...
I ripped out the old, PO-installed Viper alarm after it started going off at 6am one morning. I was left with a spiderweb of wires that I have dealt with by shoving them up under the dash. Well, they keep dropping on my leg while driving and I'm sick of it.:mad:
I don't know what I'm doing and...
I want to put a set of binoculars in my truck at all times. Are they gonna be OK what with Charleston's humid summers? They're not gonna fog up and get ruined are they?
TIA
I put this drawer system together today and thought you guys might appreciate a gander.
I used Jim Brantley's 60 series drawer system as a starting point since I also own a 62 and wanted to be able to switch between my 2 Cruisers. The 80 series is two inches wider so you can widen everything if...
Hey, buddy. I passed you as you were traveling north on 17 yesterday. Right after I passed through Georgetown. I was headin South on my way back from Raleigh(Panic shows) via Wilmington. I honked and flashed my lights frantically, but I don't think you saw me. I was in my white 80.

I just wanted to let everybody know how great Nick and the gang at www.countycomm.com really are. I've bought a bunch of stuff from them in recent years(paracord, cheap yet quality monoculars, mini pry bars, straight razor, basic survival stuff, etc...), and I've always been impressed with...
Ran into West Trashley Toyota to get a new master key made. Got to chattin' with Eric the parts guy and he says he'd just moved and was still tryin' to get the layout of the place. I ask where from and he says "the upstate." "OH! Upstate Cruiser Club?" His eyes light up and says he knew a...
I rigged this today. I wanted a GPS mount on the handlebar next to my head so I wouldn't have to look very far for my GPS. CHEAP!

Garmin Marine Mounting Bracket(for GPSMAP 76 series) or Auto Bracket

...but how do you write words/a paragraph, then post a pic, then write more words/a paragraph underneath the pic. I've seen it hundreds of times. A funny post. A pic. A funnier post. And then another pic and so on. Is it copy/paste? Is it ? I've tried it all and can't get it. Help me...
Just curious if anyone has any insight on how "rust-proof" Wedco jerry cans are.
I live in an extremely humid environment and I'm resigned to the fact that I have to keep most of my metallic tools and such in the climate-controlled environment of my laundry room. Bought a bunch of tools a few...
I don't know anything about them so don't ask. Just wanted to give anyone in the area a heads up that there are two silver 60s for sale within 2 miles of each other on Coleman Blvd. here in Mt. Pleasant. One is sitting next to Luna Rosa and Mike's Bikes(looks lifted) and the other is next to...
With the arrival of my new 80 and the inevitable resto of the 62, I realized that my current set of tools were just crud. I needed a new set. I perused a couple threads(Who makes best/most durable tools? and Good toolkit for an 80?) and decided to go wth one of Craftsman's Mechanic's Tool...
Just got done with my first ever dizzy "adjustment." Only put on a new O-Ring, seal, rotor, and cap. Too bloody hot to do wires and plugs and I'm too darn tired. My question is how is the distributor supposed to look? When I took it out, it was black. My heart sank. I realize that the old...
