Hello friends. I was surprised no body (Rush) has started a thread for this years pig party. Already 6% done with 2024 and I have been just slammed with work and life.
Anyway, lets get a list of ideas from people!
My pig came with plexiglass in place of the wing windows, and what looks like piece meal rubber parts for seals. As I have got in on the order for the rubber from Hostralia, I realize that I am getting rubber that probably wont fit my application. Is going back to wings worth it for one, and is...
I have worked with Ace Overland to come up with a cool shirt for this year. Please use the link below to get your stickers and shirts! This is a limited run through June 12, so act now.

As work ramps up to cram as much in before the holidays, I sit here daydreaming about things less :poop:y. I would like to have something to think about and plan over the next few months.
So where are we going? Last year in NM/CO was great. Let's find another cool spot to wallow this year.
I don't know what this day is or why it is celebrated, but if it is your gig than make it the best you can.
This actually marks the last day I was able to walk into my office without a mask or temperature check. Weird year and weird anniversary.

I have designed my new exhaust but I'm stuck on how to mount it. Is solid bolt on better than hanging with rubber in off road applications. I have solid motor mounts and the engine doesn't move much when i stomp the skinny pedal. What say ye? or is there some awesome cheap application i haven't...
Trying to pull my gas tank. Plan on having a long range or custom put in. I haven't inspected the inside but there is no rust outside and fuel drained out clean. I have some custom parts that are inhibiting a clean extraction so I might cut the evil thing in half. I don't want to do that if...
I currently have a stock tank with some weird PO fuel lines and vapor lines. I have been finding balls of rubber in my line and it has been starving the engine. I thought I fixed it but it happened again. I can't diagnose the issue because I have a Rollercoaster of rubber and steel lines...
I took the doomer to the store this evening and I was stopped by a lady. I'm always a target for the "hey can I get a jump?" But she tells me that she has a 71 FJ55 at her parents house and it needs some body work. She had it mechanically restored but was wondering about a place or person that...
Anyone try this or know why it hasn't been done? There so many tundras now that wrecked ones are getting plentiful. I have 6 5.7 Tundras at my work with 100k plus milage and they still run great.
I currently have chevy gear and would like to at least go back to toyota and the whole running...
We got a good rain the last 2 days in San Diego and my kids were itching to get dirty. All my little spots close by are either developed or blocked off. So disappointing these days. I ended up doing some quick donuts in a restricted area and bounced b4 my kids had their first run in with the law.
So I have been thinking about gear options. I think I want a little more crawl. Currently I have 700r4 np205 and 4.11s. If everything is stock I have a crawl ratio of 24.9:1.
So I see the option of using a doubler like a np203, or a strong box type. I would need to move the cross member and...
So I might be getting an office promotion which means I will have to give up my work truck and get my own reliable wheels. It has been a decade or so since I had to commute to work under my own financial means and all I have is a fairly built fj55 to drive right now. Work is less than 30 miles...
A guy is selling a used 4x4labs frombe hi steer setup for the small pattern knuckles on a fj40. This should fit my 55 right? I expect the drag link will need to be adjusted but the tie rod should fit. I was going to go large pattern but the parts list started getting out of control and for the...
