ROTM: February 2009

[smkymntn]

I did just the tailgate- The ladder for the bumper came today and it is beefy.

Your truck is looking great. Where did you get the Land Cruiser Lev O Gage? I would like to have one or two.

 

[smkymntn]

Cruisercrap.com also got shift knob and assorted other crap from Mark.

Great looking rig!
I thought mine was pimp...

So your side-mirrors; I saw you mention you got them from Spector. They're not Aussie are they? They look like 62 mirrors to me, but black.

I ordered the manual 62 mirrors this weekend and planned on blacking them out since they only come in chrome. Just wanted to make sure there wasn't a better option. The Aussie mirrors are just a little pricey for me. I've already blown my load and I'm a little more frugal these days...

I'm just on the other side of the mountains, hopefully we can get together and wheel sometime. I'm up on the state line most weekends it seems.

The mirrors are chinese ripoffs of the stock 62's- I am used to them now but they bounce around a bit. I hear ya on being more frugal. I am drained and can no longer justify wants to needs. My truck needed so much that I now want to just enjoy it.

If you need some help getting the bumper installed let me know. Its about time for another get together......

Thank Dave- Ive got some Sylva UC help. I have been painting since last week and am finally clear coating it. Should be going on tomorrow night if all is well.

Great rig!! How do you like the heavy ome's?

Hope you put back your spare

 

[smkymntn]

I love the suspension. rides great. I will post up new spare mounting position this weekend

 

[kling-on]

OVER the top clean Cruiser you got there ... let me ask was the sound proofing worth all the work ?? I think it on my list of to do's

 

[smkymntn]

Definitly worth the effort with Damplifier. Wasnt to bad of a job, about a weekend.

 

[smkymntn]

Solid Rock Off Road rear bumper- finally got it on. Pure Cruiser Porn.

 

[kling-on]

WOW NICE BUMPER ... all y'all are adding to my todo list

 

[GLTHFJ60]

That's sexy!!

 

[Joe_E]

Whoaaa Nellie, that is a bad ass bumper there bro.

 

[lostworldexpedition]

Awesome, well thought out 60. That is one sweet ride. Man, the drooling has to stop.

Where did you get the front seats? I am on the fence about replacing the stock seats. Was it worth it in your opinion? If I am going to spend 6 or 7 hours a day in the drivers seat the stock seats would destroy my back in a week... Was looking at the IPOR package or some wrecking yard special.

Thanks for posting your 60 on ROTM.

 

[smkymntn]

100% worth it on the seats. I think Man a fre has the set on sale now. You do not need the brackets, just use your stock brackets. They bolt right onto the procars.

 

[smkymntn]

Here are some really finished pics of rear bumper

 

[Trapper50cal]

Very, very nice. I think you're the only guy who keeps his rig as clean as I keep mine...we're nerds like that. Now you just need a rack for that ladder to lead to.

 

[smkymntn]

It is a sickness. Unfortunatly there is no cure.
