The Dobinsons stuff fits better all around versus OME. The bushings at the fixed end slip into the hangers without grinding material. The ubolts always fit nicely. I'm a big fan
Sitting pretty. I love the 80+ 40 stuff with the bigger hardware.

Man. This kinda s*** makes me crazy. I've got a bumper, all my steering parts and a box of goodies from City Racer that all landed last Friday and they are all showing this code.
I may stall out on this thing if they don't break free tomorrow.
Powder is running behind as well

For me the USPS has been great, yea some delays on occasion. FedEx and UPS are great as long as its the regular folks - the substitutes are hit or miss about driving into the outback needing 4WD and there is no cell service.
Most of the time online prices are better than I could find wondering around town trying to find something in stock.
A few weeks ago an order from Amoron was damaged and canceled before it even made it to the USPS. I had to wait 5 days to ask for a refund. Then because it was two orders combined I had to call again the next day and ask for a refund on the second half of the damaged order. The actual real people were great to deal with, the AI help bot stinks badly of shoddy programming

Contracted drivers will claim “lost or damaged” when they simply don’t want to deliver to your remote ass location. I deal with it every summer up in the mountains. Until a bottle of Baker’s Bourbon changed hands… seem to get all my packages now.

Read this article yesterday. Sounds like a mess over there....
Residents growing frustrated, claiming mail backlog preventing them from getting their mail
Upset and frustrated is how many people in central Mississippi are feeling when it comes to the delays and other problems they’ve been experiencing when it comes to getting their mail.

We ship a lot ups, fedx and usps. We use a 3rd party insurance company on a lot of shipments and they will no longer cover anything shipped by usps. It seems usps has been getting slower, and fedx sometimes is a day late. A lot of times we'll ship ups 2nd day and it arrives a day early and seems to be more dependable.
My HJ45 from Honduras had non vented rotors and I was told mini truck calipers
If you are talking about the bushings and pins that is actually an 8/80 (81 model year) change. I have a 79, wish it had the bigger hardware.

Got a couple of brackets done at PowderKeg.
Was able to mount the AC and the alternator.
I am waiting on a box with some power steering parts to add the pump.

Productive morning. New pulley and reservoir on the OEM pump and it's hosed up.
Bled the brakes. No leaks
Built in most of the water hoses added the radiator and such.
Headed to Memphis with the family. They are all home for the weekend

Got home about 2 and dug back into the Saudi 84.
I got the radiator in fully and the shroud bolted in. Top and bottom hoses installed.
AC dryer and condenser and all of the hoses back in.
Toyota Matt overflow.

Talk about layers: I have that same "stairwell" vinyl in my '82 and just peeled it back to check in on some floor pan rust I had spotted from the underside. Discovered the original "Toyota" stamped floor mat was still intact underneath it!
Will take some elbow grease to get the old adhesive off but might be worth checking this one *if you are so inclined.*
