I hope you actually got 2F carb hats as opposed to the 3F ones. 3F hats DO NOT work with 2F carbies.
Ask me how I know.

They look like 3F'ers to me from the pics he posted.... But, I know a guy that has a skill or two to make them work....

Thanks for the clarification @beno
Back in the good ole US of A. Very successful trip down to Colombia. First container arrived in the US this past Friday. Will be delivered to Gainesville Florida home of the Florida Gators and of course @mel lowe this Saturday. Then I will be shipping everything after Labor Day.
Had an awesome meeting with the leather seat suppliers. Met with the CEO of the company and all his crew where we talked logistics and of course prices. I will be offering two types of kits one being full leather and the other being 70/30 as a more economical option for mudders on a budget. Order fulfillment will be a lot faster then this first trial run. We will also be developing leather kits for the 60/100 series Land Cruisers. Kits will all come with an install kit consisting of hog rings, foam inserts, instructions. To make easy for everyone to perform an install like a pro!! I will begin taking orders on September first for October delivery. I will have more info on that in the leather thread I will reference here.
Here are some pictures of the leather factory!!
All stencils
Hyde inspected for imperfections
Computer cut pieces
Finished product

Also did some scouting for new parts sources and of course rigs. Picked up this gem a 1983 FJ43 will be offered for sale here on mud and maybe ebay dont know yet. Been parked for over 3 years put a new battery and some fuel and she started right up!!
Also went and visited my red 1980 FJ40 i am having repainted. This will be a fun project when it comes back stateside.
When I was in Bogota I went and visited the guy that made the sliders on my rig and for the mudders on here.
Ran into @Alvaro sick 80 with some bad ass new lights

While on my extensive search for parts I ran into this gem of an 80!! 1993 fzj80 with a true poverty pack. This one came from Japan what an amazing rig. It looked like it just came out of the factory. I will let the pictures do the talking!!! Owner said it was all original!!And to think that in only 3 years she will be eligible to come stateside. Has me really thinking in what the 80 market will be in a few years!!!
That fj43 would look great in my garage!
