Suspect both you and the Pig will appreciate some shade. Cottonwood ain’t Phoenix or Yuma but it’s still in AZ.

Was that your artistic flare over the center of the garage?
You need that on your doors! The Attack Peacock!

 

[Megadoomer]

You saw that as nice gesture to protect your pig, but she saw it as way to hide the pig from view.

No, I didn’t do the peacock. She found that somewhere to replace the brass heron that was there when we moved there.

Been slowly piecing the crown jewel transfer case together. Got a boatload of pics, but some of you have seen this before, for others it will hold no relevance, the rest will get an abridged version in this thread. To reacquaint -
1987 FJ73 38mm split-case converted to manual operation

Bead blasted the case halves
New bearings/races and seals throughout
Sumo 3:1 Low Range gear set

Clearanced the case with ease and grace and a couple pneumatic tools then trial fit the works. A couple more loose ends and another post about it should get this crossed off the list.

For @scrapdaddy -
Check out this huge Dake arbor press my father-in-law lent me. It’s come in handy a few times now.
