Builds after KOH LV build

[JackA]

The windows officially roll up and down. They have some wiggle room, but not too bad. Not sure if they will be rattle free till I hit the dirt roads. Either way, it's the first time these windows have been functional in a long time.

Jack, it does look nice, good job on the window wipes, something I still need to face on my 55.

Question... How do you like the spare inside? I'm planning on that in the 55 and wondering if you have any concerns.

Thanks,

Ron

I had the spare inside on my 55 too. It works well but I could see some downsides. I haven't had to deal with those downsides so far though. Mostly cause I haven't needed to use the spare...

The 33x1050 fits fine in the factory LV mount.

Jack did you install new window moldings and wipes too? It looks like it. Hopefully will keep the rattles at bay when rolled up.

 

[JackA]

Everything is new except the inner wiper. I "re felted" those. The channel stuff is close but not perfect. It will do for now though.

New stuff

I need 3 interior door levers and 2 of the trim rings (like the style above) if anybody has some spares. I'll probably post a wanted ad at some point. Just thought I'd throw that out there.

Got this too

Took the wagon out to the center for the arts........................AZ style. Been going out wheeling and exploring old mines lately as the weather is perfect. Not so many pictures though. It is definitely time for new shocks.

So far the windows have been rattle free while out in the dirt. Logged a few more miles going out to this crazy mill built from random bits. There's alot of mines in the area with cool remains and roads everywhere. The wagon fit right in.

This place is cool. Would have been cool to see it operational.

Looks like your LV was left behind when they closed down and the guy on the platform.

Welcomed in the New Year with some snow wheeling. This is about 50 miles from my house at about 5000 ft. Looked to be 8-10 inches. Was in the upper teens. Good times. Wagon handled like a champ and we stayed pretty toasty inside with just the front heater going.

This is the small pond at the top. Wasn't really frozen all the way.

One of my techs was just up the crown king road checking out the snow the other day and caught you driving by with his phone. Showed me the video "Check out this cool LandCruiser!"

Hey, thats Jack A - unless there is another LV that looks just like that

 

[JackA]

Sweet. I remember a guy "filming" as I came down a snowny hill. It was awesome up there. We hit a trail and had fresh snow, till we got denied on a hill climb and turned around.

Went for the trifecta this week. We out again to explore mining stuff. About a 100 mile round trip from home. It was alittle rockier than I liked, but managed to make it thru with no dents or issues.
