Builds Cruisermatt's FJ62 Build-up (5 Viewers)

Notice a big difference with the floor sound deadening?

I haven’t driven it longer then five minutes yet, and the carpet and shift boots were out

I left Orlando Monday morning and drove pretty much non-stop and pulled in to the Blanca Peak trailhead Tuesday evening and ran Blanca Peak trail solo up to Lake Como near Alamosa yesterday morning. What a sketchy trail to run alone. Got it done though.

Been at Jim @CenTXFJ60 place in Ft Collins for few nights, he and his wife have been amazing hosts. I am going wheeling around these parts the rest of this week.

Colorado is awesome! Welcome to our great state.

Wheeled the Bald Mountain trail last night, and Moody Hill this morning. Both trails were pretty similar, just rocky mountain trails through the woods up to the peaks where you get some awesome views. I am a little bit overbuilt for both of these trails and am running them in 2wd pretty much the whole way through, I have the rear locker though. I'm still having a blast and being overbuilt is OK when you're wheeling solo.

So how about that LS/ NV4500 combo up in the higher elevations? do you miss the 3FE at all?

Way to go Matt

Your DS headlight is not overbuilt...

It’s pretty nice certainly better then a Cruiser motor. Nice being able to blast up the highway hills at +70. It’s definitely not what it is at sea level though. I would like an auto in this truck one day

Got it back together Thursday evening and hit the trail Friday morning after returning the transmission jack to Harbor Freight

Broke a rear cross pin at the end of the day but I had a spare so it was a quick fix on the trail.

Thanks to @The Eradicator and his mom Jessica for the assist and for the ride into town for the transmission jack.

This morning I left Ouray, Colorado at 2am and rolled up to SLC where @cruiseroutfit met me at his shop with almost zero notice and gave me another crosspin so I have another trail spare as well as some other bits. Awesome dude.

Currently crossing Nevada on my way to Loon Lake.

If it weren't for the blue sky and bits if green Matt, I'd say you were on the moon.
