I have had the HFS springs on my 40 for about 4 years and I think they are the same stiffness as the day I put them on. The only thing that has soften them up is putting the hard top on. I don’t plan on running the hard top year round, so that is not a viable solution. I‘ve thought about...
I can’t believe I just found this....I literally leave 3 minutes from away from you and could have helped with some heavy lifting / admiring of the 40!! Awesome build.
I too have a de-smogged 75’ that I plan on taking to AZ when I move down there in the next year. My plan was to just get the collector insurance and not even bother with trying to piece the smog stuff back together....
Do you by chance live near Bothell Everett Highway and 180th? I’m pretty sure I saw a green cruiser rolling around without the roll bar and the windshield down around Sept 17th, was it you?

Thank you for the replies everyone! I currently have Collector plates on the 40 here in Washington which comes with the stipulation of only driving to "special events"- Right!! I do not drive it daily, just on the weekends. I looked on the AZ DOT website for information and the only vehicles...
Can any Arizona folks give some insight on emission testing in AZ? I currently live in Washington State and am planning on moving to AZ in about a year. I currently do not have emission testing here in WA, but understand there is emission testing in AZ, as per the AZ DOT website. I have a 75...
Finally got new suspension and tires. I ordered the 4 inch HFS lift kit from Torfab in Everett Washington and had Torfab do the install. I would have liked to to have done the lift myself, but just don't have time with work and family life. I then put new BF Goodwrich KO 33x10.5x15 tires on...
