    Rainman is retiring... kinda

    Guys, these comments remind me how much I loved this forum from the beginning. Other forums I've been a part of don't measure up at all with this one. It has watered down the last few years but what hasn't. Just know how much I appreciate the kind words and well wishes. I still doubt I'll end...

    THAT! is one very nice thing to say. I don't know if that's actually true or not but I really appreciate the sentiment.

    It''s so strange to think that this Cruiser addiction started for me 34 years ago. A funny thing; My wife says I'm not allowed to retire. "I've seen you bored and it's painful to watch." So, I've retired from making brake lines but not from much else.

    Thanks guys. I'm not huge over the hill but we are down sizing the house and yard. Going back to having neighbors again will be good. And a 4 car garage with a nice big slot for my '32 will be a huge welcome. It'll be back from getting a new transmission just in time for the move too.

    Rainman's Brake Lines

    I really appreciate the kinds words. tps, I just finished packing up all the patterns today. So sorry. Also shipped out the last two orders. Took a bath on shipping. Forgot to charge for the inflation. You know, the one that's getting out of hand.

    Fellow Cruiser guy and gals. It’s been a ton of fun for many years to drive, wheel, break, and restore FJ40s. For about 7 years, I’ve enjoyed helping many owners out with brake lines for their ailing trucks. Over the past couple of years, a number of things have put gaps in a previously steady...

    What have you done to your Land Cruiser this week?

    I sold my Cruiser. Only the second time since 1988 that I've been without an FJ40 or 45. Feels kind of weird. Carry on...

    Builds STPCHLD, a 3/70 FJ40, Get's a Frame Up!

    Cruisers have tanked on BaT lately. The market for them has shrunk heavily. Decent 40s have gone for cheap. This one didn't. So it's for sale. Kinda bummed but it's okay. Too busy to worry about it right now.

    What have you done to your Land Cruiser this week?

    Alaskan Cruiser Build Newbie Question/Project

    Hell of a task so far from civilization. Well, at least Cruiser parts havens. Looks like a fun project though. Only way I've seen/had inside of the frame cleaned was by dipping it in paint removing acid. Takes a big shop with enough room and liquid to pull that off.

    For those of you who have tried to get in touch with me, my email was down for a week or so and the Geek Squad fixed it. Unfortunately, I can't send any emails still. I also don't have enough time to take the computer back. I barely have time to write this up. I have gotten a few emails as...

    Apparently not any more. I wanted a Saturday and they declined giving me that.

    Builds 1st FJ40, '76 - SMOKEY - Puttin’ her Back Together

    I'll imagine you have but, have you checked your corners for right angles? There's got to be a hidden reason why the doors are that lopsided.

    Sorry for the delay. My email was down for over a week. On top of that, we're getting our house ready to sell. It's a monumental job and keeping me busy all day. Can you wait a while? If not, I'll stop and make one line. I'm just under the gun for the first open house. Let me know how desperate...

    That's okay. I don't get many complaints. More surprised than offended. PM sent.

    @germaneighter First off, why did you bring up an issue on this thread rather than in a PM to me? I back my product and want to rectify your issues but would rather do that in private. You get the same lines everyone else does. '77 lines are all the same. It appears to me that it could be...

    Another FJ40 build from the ground up and it only took a week!

    They just might. The whole deal is sitting on a warmer for the time being. The wife and I are going to down size and it's taking my full attention at the moment. Working on the house, the garage, and the barn all about the same time. Huge undertaking. And looking at houses to boot. So just hold...
