Some Pics From Tonight

[baxter650]

well s***, i was told diff, back to the drawing board.
I will remove the script from around the TEQ and use them, should still look ok.
This is turning into a bit of a pain in the ass just to transition from one colour to the next.

For what it is worth --- the 'TEQ' does mean To-yo-ta also written in Katakana.... Usually Katakana is used for foreign words in the japanese language. In Japan, they also use it as a kind of 'italics' for japanese words. The Toyota in the middle is kind of stylized and looks pretty cool.

I googled 'specter' and Japanese and found a link to some t-shirts that they are selling that has the same logo...


Landcruiser in Japanese is ---- ランドクルーザー (I hope this comes through to everyone)

Man I forgot about this build super sweet....

 

[kling-on]

For now yes, Cruiser axles. But with Longs And Poly's

I'm running them with 39.5 boogers with a 180 to 1 and lookin at 42's broke A tcase but the axles have held up well



Also what deg did you set the front axle too? I just got my ruffstuff SOA kit

 

[baxter650]

If i remember right it was 14* on the perches, and 7* cut and turn.
I may go a few more on the perches, i will see after the Toybox or what ever i use is in.
I started to looking into if i can do a H55- Toybox but with the OTT adapter to a Dana300 T case.
Either way i will be doing a 9'', centered or offset of at least 35 spline, possibly 40.

A few weeks are up.

Any updates?

I have done natta on the Cruiser except pick up my decals, and wont for a number of weeks. Had i little misshap on Fri. Long story short, someone forget something at home and decided to pull a Uturn in front of me. Any how this is how i am going, with this meatball and these stripes, now i just don't know if i will run through the window or not.

 

[baxter650]

Sorry but not a one, i had a crash on the bike with a car pulling a Uturn in front of me.
I fractured 5 vertebrae in my back and have a double compound fracture of my arm.
I will be out for 16 or more weeks. You can check out the motorcycle section here on mud for some of the pics.

[beaufort-fj60]

ouch....

 

[baxter650]

Nothing more done, not on the 60 anyways.
Two weeks after first surgery i needed to go back for more.
Can't do much more than collect parts for the moment.
I am already climbing the friggin walls, daytime TV sucks and i can't understand why more housewives are not offing themselves.

 

[gothodgie]

Hope you have a speedy recovery... I would be climbing the walls too..

Just got through scanning over this thread and what an awesome 60 you got there... Makes me want to get the grinder out and get started on my 60...

Keep up the great work

 

[Joe_E]

ow bummer, sorry to hear about the accident.
Hope you're feeling better soon.

 

[beaufort-fj60]

just brainstorm some more cool ideas like welding Toyota into the tailgate...

 

[baxter650]

Thanks guys, i am confident i will have my fingers working before the cast comes off, then i work on getting the wrist moving again.
I was really hoping to have the 60 on the road by summer, now i may have to make a few short cuts if i want to make it.

 

[Rig of Mortis]

All in good time Baxter. Don't rush a good thing. Heal yourself, we'll wait up for you.
