Hope you keep the bumper sticker.

 

[gonzopancho]

I’d like to, but does anyone on da mainland understand it?

 

[TexFJ]

Makes it even better ... Eddie would leave it on.

Had to pull the engine to use the weld-on bung for the @NLXTACY turbo. Head installed, ARP studs with Cometic gasket. Painted things while they were out.

@NLXTACY / Wit's End turbo in-place. going to have to notch the pass side mount slightly, and move brake lines to driver's side.

The 55 on the lift now has the original axle housings from the fj62, stuffed with Nitro/ARB goodness (4.88s, lockers, chromoly birfs and inners).

 

[TexFJ]

Is this an optical illusion or did the rear driver side window get shattered?

 

[gonzopancho]

it apparently broke just while sitting there.
