Got the frame plated today, the welds are pretty ugly but I’m past caring at this point😑

And I found another buckle in the frame that I’m probably not going to worry about

Update: I added a resonator to the exhaust and started working on the front brake lines. The sunsong lines from rock auto don’t fit the 80 calipers which is kinda annoying.

I did drive the 80 on the interstate on the way back from Costco which is kinda cool. It’s felt pretty good, I think I’m going to add in a little bit more front sway bar and a little bit of low speed compression for the drive down to Utah. It’s drives great for short runs but it feels a little floppy changing lanes. Or maybe I’m just not used to driving an offroader and I’m being a princess.
 
“Add in a little more front sway bar”? By what means?
 
I did something today. I mostly mounted the oil cooler. I can’t tell if the crossmembers crooked if the body is crooked, or if I just mounted it crooked. I also couldn’t get one of the to nuts to seat so it’s mounted with 3. Apart of me cares a lot, but appart of me knows that it’ll get hidden behind the bumper and I’ll never think about it again

Is that for hydro assist?
 
Siiiii, I’m doing this guy and I’m cutting and extending the stock reservoir for more fluid volume
Better reservoir solutions are at your finger tips.
 
But I’m cheeeaaaapppp and the psc one is so wildly overpriced
What’s not over priced especially with Land Cruisers? With the PSC you get a better and easily replaced filter and a second return port (on the correct p/n) for when you install a hydro booster. Plus, it’s a handsome unit with a lid that actually seals.

I’ve been hearing good stuff about radial dynamics. If I was going to fork out some serious dough I’d probably lean that way!

Until then…. I’m being cheap😂

I went to the site. Talk about glorification in the name of over pricing a fluid reservoir. Dang!
 
I’m going to be chopping the lip off and welding on a 3.5” piece of exhaust pipe to make it deeper. I saw the trick in a pirate post from like 14 year ago or something. It’s fun/ easy/ cheapView attachment 3621776
Others here on mud have done the same with great results 😎 carry on.
You still heading to Sand Hollow in a few weeks?
