[QUOTE="CCSTEEL's daughter was in the back seat and loved the action. She was begging me to find a similar opportunity for destruction the rest of the night.[/QUOTE]

She was also trying to get Rob R. to go down where he had rolled earlier. Kinda makes me afraid to let her start driving. I'm thinking a Yugo might be an appropriate first car.

And a Lexus no doubt!
 
Mike it is coming together! Won't be too much longer.....
 
solution???

At SMORR, a Samarai Ninja Rock hit one of my hydro lines at the ram on the hydro assist.

Due to many limitations, I was locked into having the lines enter the ram in the rear side. Everyone on the forum says that a 90 degree will limit flow too much.

So, this attempt is the best I could come up with. Instead of using 1/4 90 degrees, I found 3/8 90 degree fittings. I have two of them pointing the entry point now to the front.

Will see how it works at Tuttle.

Oh, did not replace the power steering pump, as it did great on Saturday at SMORR....

AND if anyone ever tells you to check your cooler to make sure that the pressure side is coming into the top of the cooler, and you being that inquisitive guy ask how to do so??? And if that same person says pull the line apart and put your thumbs on both sides and start the vehicle for a few seconds. Well, my advice is not to do this. This method is kinda like watering the lawn with your thumb over the hose. Entire half of my shop is not going to rust with the spray of ATF over everything.

Oh, and I had it plumbed right.

ROTFL!!!!!!!
 
Forgot to take pics.... Rob and I put seat heaters in FOO.
 
I may have over purchased? It was $10 more than a 10 foot section.

Figured out why the horn, cruise and airbag were not working.... when we did hydro, I let kids play with steering wheel... heck I did too. Ends up there is a clock spring inside that only allows three rotations left or right. Took it out last night, cannot be repaired.

Need to go to junkyard and find celica, corolla, camry, previa from 96 or 97.

:(
 
Milemarker60 and I put a ToyTec adjustable coilover kit on the front end of my FJ Cruiser. Truck sits nice and level now and I'll be able to compensate for any sagging when I put the new bumper and winch on.

Also, the seat heaters I put in last Christmas only work on the low setting on the driver side. I got a replacement switch from the supplier and now I will have toasty buns when the temperature drops into the teens tomorrow morning!!!
 
cut apart a perfectly good fzj80 air cleaner assembly and made it fit in the 64 Fj45 engine bay all so i could use an old K&N filter from one of my old cruisers i had years ago.. will fab a "snorkel" to the air intake sometime at a later date at the kelly compound.. no hurry on that.. for now it will work as is..
 
What did I do? Broke my starter mount tab. Drove home on my lunch break with my starter hanging by the battery cable.

Anyone home with a welder? I'll bring some Tank 7s over.
 
Isn't that cast? If so, that is not easy to weld. Better to swap out. I know easier said than done.

I will be home tonight, but garage is full, so have to weld outside.
