You have been busy! Nice.

Yep. I forgot to give you a shoutout for the seat bracket. That came from you.

Have you seen that this guys is making repro wiper switch covers?

Wiper park switch cover

Fellow Mudders, I am in need of a wiper park switch cover for a 1972 FJ40 wiper motor. This is the snap on one not the one that screws down. I understand that they aren't just laying around all over the place, so I want to make my own. I will be casting this from urethane, so I can make as many...

Yes. I am getting one that Big Reno Al made, sent to me by a very generous MUD'er @mrboatman

 

[bmoonhajjar]

So here it is. Hard to imagine the original cover fitting better than this. It is a perfect snug fit. Thanks @BIG RENO AL for making them and to @mrboatman for sending it to me. Did I mention “I love this site”?

Door handles from @Dallas Todd finished...almost. Need handles if anybody has these.

 

[Dallas Todd]

Bmoon, stupid question, sure it's been asked before. Could someone with a 3D printer do the handles in plastic?

 

[bmoonhajjar]

I don’t see why not.

Truck looks great! I'm moving down to San Diego in the next couple weeks. We should find a vapor blaster locally for your aluminum bits that needs love. I need to find one for future stuff as well.

Did you ever find a vapor blaster? I have been looking for one ever since you mentioned it. Hard to find.

Haven’t started looking yet, just moved in a couple weeks ago! @roma042987 is always an option if he is accepting work to blast

Happy to blast stuff for people it’s just a bit time consuming.

If you have dimensions I can model them for those with printers.
