Our club, Olde North State Cruisers did a Hamom this weekend in Southern Pines. Ive never been so amazed at the diversity, generosity and friendly lot of people. I am not a social butterfly, I love to read, occasionally write, shoot pictures and most of the time - do things that dont require me to deal with too many people on first name friendly basis.
MeJane has changed this solo aspect of my personality, much to the amazement of the one person who knows me best - my huz, Rob. I am drawn to talk Landcruisers, even if its over my head..there could not be a better group of guys, at least in North Carolina. So without further ado - here are some pics - I managed to change out the hatch struts and replace one of the original seats with a direct bolt in from an Audi Roadster..and let me tell you - the audi seats are AMAZING. I ran out of time to put the driver side seat in.
My huz (thats him in the digicam, telling a story, Im sure) simultaneously worked on replacing my tie rod ends and Ive got to say that the steering is MUCH improved. Less wandering and while the driving is not stiff, there's a heckuva lot less stress in driving without constant correction to stay straight. Between the smaller tires and TRE's - the question of power steering is a completely dead path at this point.
As another member and I were discussing, I love my 40 as it is.
