    Abandoned 84 FJ60 gets some love, and a 4bt!

    Over the past week I did repairs on my house while waiting for brake parts to arrive, and then Friday and Saturday I spent the day replacing the rear shoes, springs, hardware, and adjusters, as well as the ruptured hard line under the hood. My brake line bending skills are lacking, so it isn't...

    A few photos I pirated from SuckCreekPhotos.com They were taking pics as I drove by on Saturday. Pretty neat looking pile of junk if I say so myself 😎

    Over the last few weekends, I've been traveling locally to good places to camp and ride dirtbikes with my kid every chance I get, as the weather improves. We went to Land Between the Lakes for a while and rode a couple weeks ago, and this past weekend we went near Chattanooga to go play in the...

    Thanks! It's got 15w40 Rotella dino oil, because a buddy who works on heavy equipment gets it cheap, lol. I've got it plugged in, now, and after sitting at least 6 hours it started like it's summertime, lol. It doesn't get cold enough for long enough to run thinner stuff in the winter here. We...

    Finally took a cold start video. It was 11° at my house this morning. Didn't plug in the block heater, no glow plugs, no ether, and no fuel additive. I was happy it started at all, haha. I'll probably plug it in tonight so I can get to work. It's supposed to get even colder tonight.

    Merry Christmas!!! Santa didn't bring him a bike, but rather a bike "kit". Junior had as much fun putting it together as he will riding it...🥹

    Finally made it back home! Moab to Middle TN is a long drive! Friday morning, we rolled into town to have breakfast at the Canyon Steak and Waffle House, which was fantastic, and reasonably priced. After that we stopped by @MoaByte house one last time to exchange some neat rocks and say our...

    This morning we went to the Moab Rock shop and found some cool fossils and gemstones for our rock collection. After that, we went to Arches National Park and did some hiking and sightseeing, and scared my poor wife some more (we are realizing she's more afraid of heights than we originally...

    Moab has been fun so far! Just doing some easy trails while we're here, taking photos of the scenery, as well as a few pics of my photogenic old wagon.

    I had a ton of great photos from wheeling in the snow and exploring a few trails I've not seen before, but as soon as we got to Ouray I got in the hot springs with my phone in my pocket, and killed it. Posting from my wife's phone now, so here are a few photos we took on her phone for now. The...

    The past few days I've been buttoning up a few small things and checking regular maintenance items like diff fluid, etc, and packing the truck to go to Colorado and Utah for a few days. Today is the day, and as soon as I get off work I'll go home and pick up my wife, kid, and dogs, and point...

    Played around in the mud for a bit today, and went to our favorite creek for finding cool fossils and geodes. The dog had a great time.

    The chip repair kit was super easy, and greatly improved the appearance if the chip, although it isn't entirely gone, you can hardly notice it unless looking for it. I wish I had taken a before Pic, but I'll post an after Pic in a little while. I think it would have worked even better if I had...

    Today I've decided to do some routine maintenance, and revel the fact that I can finally do routine maintenance instead of constantly improving or repairing stuff. I've changed the oil, and cleaned the air filter, and now trying to do an epoxy repair kit for a chip in the windshield. We will see...

    It's been a little while since I've posted a photo in this thread, lol. I finally ordered a Toyota emblem for the front, but got one for something else I guess. No worries, I drilled a couple holes and stuck a couple screws in, and it doesn't look too bad from across the yard.
