They are about 30". Mild lift from Tough Dog. Definitely smaller than most run but they perform great and always get me where I need to go. This is not a wheeler rig so nothing that crazy in regards to trails. It needs to serve a do it all function.
Met up with @NookShneer and @Bullzi and some others and camped in an awesome spot. A few water crossings, threaded the fat cruiser needle between tight trees, soupy sand and took a couple wrong and over grown trails that I had to delicately back out of but Blue Guy conquered it all perfectly. I...
Yeah I thought about that one a lot when I had the top end apart for the fuel system refresh. As far as I can tell all the smog systems are working so I figured I would leave it for now. Anything to help reduce the emissions is good in my book as long as its working correctly. That being said...
I just love this wagon. I have been driving it around a lot lately. It's happy and I am happy. Met up with @TheNeek the other day to work on some projects. Always love seeing his impeccably built 60. Truly beautiful and the attention to detail is beyond amazing.
I also did a final test...
New Meats on Blue Guy today! Old Toyo AT2s were 10 years old. Still plenty of tread but just too old. Got new Toyo AT3s. I love the tires so I stuck with what worked well. Tire size is 245/75R16. I personally find this size tire the perfect balance on a stock FJ62. Fantastic on and off road and...
Thanks! I'll go check that out. I think the double DIN screens actually look good in a 62. Since they were made in the late 80s (digital revolution and expansion of personal computers), I feel their design is amenable to some increased digital presence. :)
Ordered a pair of those sweet double DIN radio brackets from @ChaserFJ60 . What double DINs are people running and love? Looking for recommendations. :)
Nothing new, just have been loving this old FJ62. Still need to restore the rear heater switch. Snapped this pic of the tach while on a errand the other day. I love how beat up the tach is. Its seen things, been on adventures and hopefully many many more. :steer:
Haven’t messed with those but I’m not surprised to hear there is room for improvement! :D While the wiring is high quality, it’s all getting long in the tooth now. now I want to go unwrap and check mine.
No, the motor was pretty clean inside! But I wanted to check and I refreshed the lube inside. Would I do it again?…. Probably not. I think the bigger issues with these things are the relays you replace, master switches and power flow (good grounding).
