So just a heads up. Life is weird and motivation to post wavers as things go on. Been dealing with a lot of personal stuff for a while which puts a back seat to all of this unfortunately. I did buy an 80 recently which is getting a lot of love now but the 62 isn't going anywhere. Updates will...
So I got the Huracan tailgate storage unit installed. It hurt to cut as much metal out as was necessary to get it installed but overall it is a nice unit and I've already put everything into it that I had hoped. Plenty more room for a small toolkit and belts and other things etc... Last shot is...
So I've been looking into getting one of those tailgate cutting boards but decided I'd rather utilize the tailgate space and ordered a Huracan Fabrication storage unit (jumper cables, yankum rope, small toolkit, and whatever else I can fit). One of these. Thinking about it further and knowing I...
Put together a little video of my trip to Boca reservoir yesterday. Boca is between Truckee and Reno. It's where I learned to waterski as a kid. It's dashcam footage so it's not the greatest quality but I hadn't planned on putting a video together until I reviewed the footage. :)
Call Ron Diaz at Custom Cruisers FJ40 in Gilroy. He has a frame from a 1989 FJ62 he'd probably sell. You'd likely have to pick it up though.

So today I pulled out my AC condenser after have the R134 evacuated from the system. I drove from Truckee to Verdi hitting some hills that would have my temps normally in the 215+ (208 actually) range. Hottest I hit was 201 (194 actually) and that was only for an instant. I think a clogged...
Whoa. Must've brushed over this response initially. Hello 7 months later. You are 100% correct. I can see the temps jump when the tstat opens. Unfortunately the "overheating" is still occurring. My latest theory is that my AC condenser is too clogged. It's bad. I just figured enough air could...
Dude! Thanks man :)
Their Cruiser is a beast. Bros asking about mods now that his wife is completely against. Haha!
I actually have a lot of updates for this thread but haven't gotten to it. One of them is a Trustmade RTT arriving in the next week or so.
What temp do you read with your...
The happy couple! I have THE BEST sister in law in the world. This is honestly her car. My brother is thrilled. She's scared because the car is really expensive but says it drives like a cloud. She was worried because she drove every car she owned to the ground. I dare her. Can't do that with a...
Hey all! Installed the tranny cooler as well as the gauge. Welded in the bung, put in Dex VI, Lubegaurd, new gaskets blah blah. The welds aren't pretty but I dont have too much experience with welding dissimilar thickness steel together. I used a step bit to get the size right. No leaks (after...
Hey man! Sorry for the late reply. I'll try to provide as much detail as possible. All of these dollar values are pretax and shipment.
