EB Boch now called Nucar is were I get all my oem parts from also. I'm in CT and I can say that the hard shift with high idle is always present 1st thing on a cold morning. Never a issue in the warmer months.
Yeah it's a Gobi bro. No issue with it. As far as the clear coat it's still peeling. At this point not even worrying about it anymore. At 233k miles it does add some character lol. Unless I find a hood at the junkyard. I even looked for a hood decal to no avail unfortunately.

I'm subscribed to his channel for a couple of years. I think honestly he didn't work on many land cruisers at his particular dealership he worked. It seems he just knows the textbook basics of them. Decent video regardless.
I remember seeing press photos and videos of the 60 series rigs. The springs always looked flat to me. I'm sure General went cheap with material but it dont look that far off.
Welcome to the Amazonian club. My 08 (229k) also has the hood and roof clear coat issues. Rest of it is great. Without having a garage it gets full sun all day in my driveway. I tried all the wax and compounds to help slow it down. Meh? I already have a full size Gobi roof rack. For the...
