Good work man! A 15B-FT....i'm jealous! That should move the 40 along nicely. :grinpimp:
Keep the pics coming!
 
Hi Nuno. More beautiful work there!

The only thing that concerns me is the weight of that radiator-inlet-hose assembly when it is full of coolant. (It's going to want to "bounce" when you go over bumps and that would put strain on your radiator inlet spigot.)

It is also going to want to "sag" when the hoses are hot and soft.

It's a simple job for a radiator shop to swap the inlet/outlet/fillerneck to wherever you want them on brass header tanks. (I'm assuming yours are the normal brass variety.)

Just a thought.

:beer:
 
Thanks for your opinion. I will see how it handes offroad, and make some adjustments.

This is a MANN Filter for my IVECO Air box. Monster!!!! :)

YES!!!! Santa Barbarans LOVE wheeling Land Cruisers!

There are many rock climbing areas in and around the city.

Most of Santa Barbara is into wheeling near the beach. :popcorn:

Looks great.

Don't forget to tighten the driveshaft hardware!
 
Brain...confused.......trying to....process..bezel.....uhhhh..

I'm just messin with ya! Though I'm pretty sure the bezel police would shoot on sight with that one!:eek: I'm owned by a 78 FJ40 AND a 43 Ford GPW 'jeep' and they don't even share the same garage! I do love them both for what they are but never the two will mix. The jeep vs FJ may be a cultural thing that is not seen in Terceira Island, can't say for sure as I've never been there.

Bezel (or other aesthetics aside), you do have to be impressed with the hard work, ingenuity, dedication, time, money, etc put into this rig. I know everyone can appreciate that!

I wish I had half the energy it takes to do that kind of work.

I'm impressed Nuno!:clap:

Hopefully I've been around here enough to say....:flipoff2:
