Builds A 60 Runs through it… (8 Viewers)

[Mr Cimarron]

I hit 35 all the time when passing aggressively. I would get the 60.

I’m leaning toward white. Seems much easier to read also.
But... black has a more stock feel.
Anybody have an opinion?

I am installing black on the 60 i am working on not my choice i think either will look dope

38 psi! I'm happy hitting 18 on my 1HZ-T.

I like the black gauges since it goes with the rest of the interior.

That’s what I’m torn between. Easier to read and different look or more original and not stand out as much. Still leaning toward white because of the ability to see better and a different look to the 60.

 

[davegonz]

You'll be fine either way. The white is pretty clean looking.

I ended up getting red lettering on black with red lettering at night also. They aren’t installed yet but they might be a little hard to read in the day time. Originally I was going to get white lettering on black.

 

[davegonz]

White lettering on black would look nice, too. Probably easier to read than the light gray on black.

3” of snow this afternoon here in the foothills today. More roadside attraction on way home.

I’m thinking EGT where the tach is now. Boost with the quad cluster moving fuel over to the speedometer side. Use the 4” gauges or 4-1/2”? What size for the center tach location, 2-1/16” or 2-5/8”?

Black does look good. White may be too much. Cannot find one that’s been done in white.

I vote for the black. More of a stock-ish look to it than the white.

Nice to have ya back on the thread buddy. Was wondering where you have been. Hope to have my WARN winch mounted to your 4plus bumper here soon.

Spent couple hours sledding with kids in back field.

Milwaukee 18V floodlight made it look like a ski run.

There's been snow at your place all month right? Does it usually stick around this long?

Next Sunday will be 5 weeks with snow on the ground. Haven’t had more than about 8” here which was when you were here with the fam. but it’s hung around the whole time.
We usually have it for 1-2 weeks at a time once a winter. This year has turned unusually cold.
I really hope it’s due to the sun going into its solar minimum which could last a few years to 50 depending on its hibernation state during this solar cycle. Read articles about how it could last a long period of time such as what happened during the Maunder Minimum from 1645-1715 when the Earth experiences a significant cooling period.

Nice. Which winch did you end up going with?

I haven’t been over here much lately, I’ve had my hands full with an fj40 project I picked up after I saw you last. My garage is bursting at the seams with cruisers.

Your cruiser looks incredible. You have done a great job.

You and your cruiser addiction. They are definitely awesome.
2004 M8000 never used.

My dad has an older WARN 12K said I could have so I may install that. Not sure yet.

Very nice!
