Contacting Beno/Onur at Land Cruiser Parts and Consulting:

[OGBeno]

I'm always amazed at the cool things you find from Toyota when they let you have them....

Rear jumpseat seat belt assy for an 4x vehicle.

Took me almost a month to procure this. By the manufacture date on it of 2010, I betcha they had to find it on some dusty shelf some place in Aichi Prefecture.

3B and 13B-T exhaust manifold gaskets in stock.

And 13B-T valve cover gaskets:

And for those of you with fold down 7x windshields.... The correct directions on use!!

 

[OGBeno]

So @BMThiker and I got his upper oil pan squared away. Lot quicker putting everything together than taking apart.

Still reminds me my body is not 25 anymore as much as my mind wants to think it is.

A quick update on my coming schedule:

I am wrenching for the next three weekends in preparation for my three week trip to the desert Southwest.

I am available M-F 9am-6pm for the next three weeks.

After May 14th, I will be off line with no phone/email/text communication.

I will not be taking orders until I return back into the office on June 1st. Please prepare accordingly.

I'll be on the road and in New Mexico, South Utah and points in between. I'll be ending my trip at the epic Crawfish Boil with the Cotton Land Cruiser crew in Mississippi.

Thanks for your understanding.

It's been a couple years since I ordered parts and I was a bit dismayed to discover C-Dan had retired. I stumbled upon this thread and can say I was quite happy to discover Onur was in business. I just ordered some parts, it was a pleasure working with him. Now it's time to get to work on that front axle.

 

[OGBeno]

Get to work Doug! 'Con ain't too far away.

Great chatting again sir.

A very interesting short article about the pitfalls of "keiretsu"....

[Dirty Koala]

I was afraid of that answer! can you send me the prices on 10, 12 and 14mm sizes?

[red66toy]

Easy ordering with Onur ! Clutch kit ordered (with all the pieces) - and I went ahead and placed an order for 2 of the rear seat belts, as in Post #883.

Clutch kit is in stock and Beno said it will ship today ! SWEET !

Took a break from the screen this afternoon to take my mother for dinner. Sorry to those folks waiting for an email back from me. I hope you can understand.

She is leaving for Turkey on Sunday for about 6 months so I will miss Mother's Day and her birthday so I took her to a nice restaurant in Decatur.

She has been super supportive of my trek into the wilderness and spent all day doing my paper work for me today. Least I can do is treat her to a good meal.

Safe travels mom. Stay safe in Istanbul.

Say hi to mom. Hate I missed the baclava at Christmas this year. Safe travels.
