Builds 1993 refreshed (now gone) and 1995 build up with new OEM engine

A very low profile screw driver. Might as well replace the weatherstripping? I did.

Hey no worries. I took no offense but felt it was in bad taste. Some of us are also over all this inter whatever where people seem quick to throw others under the bus.

Here is a thread where you could certainly ask questions or express your concerns before purchasing.

80 Series Stainless Exhaust

I've been working on an 80 series exhaust kit over the last few months. I've been posting about it in the 80 section but now that it's done it's probably time for it's own thread. It's 2.5" 14 gauge 304 stainless with a Solo Performance Stealth muffler. The muffler keeps it nice and quiet but...

Huge load of OEM weather stripping, window runs, door welting and more.

Time to refresh it all, even cargo sliders.

Digging into my stash to see what else I have for interior.

I have been stock piling this stuff for more than a year. I got drivers seat cushion too. Not sure how much I will install of all this right now because I am still going to do some sound deadening, stereo stuff, aux wiring at the back of my Cruiser, ect ect. My windows are slooooow right now though so going to toss in the runs and some of these other goodies now.

As you can probably tell, I like to get my Cruiser mechanically sound, outside and inside refreshed too before starting in on the upgrades and mods.

Stoked my door cards are in such good condition.

Need to replace courtesy light cover on them but otherwise good to go.

Nice! This was the first major project I did on mine. Desert heat wasn’t nice on my rubbers. Well worth the time to properly seal up the truck.

Old vs new

I have not seen one with original window runs in over 15yrs that doesn’t need that at the minimum.

My truck comes from Washington. The runs are packed with funk and also hard as a rock. The rest I am doing because it’s original and well, we can still get these parts from Toyota. How much longer who knows, I been in the game long enough though to have seen 60/62 parts disappear.

Giving my rockers a good clean today and some rust proofing.

Had fun last weekend wheeling with our local Land Cruiser Club.

The 80 killed it but ih8mud and I did rip my RHS rear bumper side cap pretty good.

MetalTech raw sliders in hand, SLEE belly skid and HD tie rod/drag link in route. Got my Specter TuffDuck seat covers and still got to finish the rubber refresh on the body.

ALL suspension bushings need doing, they are showing their age.

Nice pics, good to see people getting out even in winter.

All solid upgrades. Which Tie rods and drag link did you end up going with?

Just the SLEE HD, I bent the tie rod ever so slightly on its first off road trip.

Don’t think I have mentioned it yet. I have this and all related parts to install the subtank system.

Not sure when I will have time to refresh it all and install but it’s sitting here for when I can get to it.

Any chance you want to sell the blanking plate for sunroof controls, I've made mine inoperable and I'd like to hide the controls

Probably, no idea when that will be.

Just about 3,000 miles on the new engine now.

Not a single leak anywhere or problem. No more p0420 codes since the new y-pipe, cat and cat back.

All is well.

So you ever going to sell it? Haha!

One of my favorite rigs on all of mud.

A bit of seat refresh today.

Is the seat cushion OEM? for the 97 models I'm seeing NLA everywhere.
