I'm rather partial to my 80.
I like em too. Especially when sporting a 55 body and a 100 series drivetrain.

Driving the Pig to Alaska?
Why 60 knuckles?
Adjust the wiper arm on the first Monday.
As for the shop. Man. If there is any way to get it going at the house you can spend
Much more time there. Having it away from
The house will test even the best of women.

The 60 knuckles will have different tie rod ends. To stay with your new 55 TRE’s you’ll need later model steering arms. I think 79-84 FJ40 arms fit the 60 knuckles. I found a set for $100 at Classic Cruisers in Poncha Springs. That way all of my new fj55 steering components could still be used.
I think @cruiseroutfit has adapter bushings you can drop in there too
I’d like to retire from military 2021, take a month off, ship pig to AK, tour the state, drive it home, start new civ job. Or something similar.
Best trip I ever had . Except Pig Party 2017. 2017 right.Very cool!
My Dad is in Homer, he is always happy to help people find cool things to do in Alaska.
Next Monday (knuckles and brakes) is going to suck.
Have fun
Disc brakes! Fine spline outer axles too.
I’m torn.
It could be x2-3 as big and x10 the outside storage if away. I could still do little stuff at home, but just don’t have room for my truck, wife’s car, sons car, IRNPIG, car trailer, have a 1931 Model A in storage already, a little ski-boat/trailer to store in winter, extra axles and tires and all that crap.
It could be a cool party shack too.
It’s 8-9min from my house.
I dunno.
This has been in my family for 70 years.
This was the last pic of my mom and I before she passed. We had just repoed the Model A after someone stole it and we drove it around.
