Thanks @Glennmerkel for the mirror base. I can now see what’s behind me without spinning around.

Lucky for you my wife likes Cruisers too. I’m in the middle of nowhere Cameron LA so she stripped it off and shipped. Glad it will help you out.

Impromptu road trip/ shake down run. After work today I decided I’d build some confidence for a cross country run, by taking a road trip.

Nothing like the first trip. How's she doing?

Moving right along. Refueling (the 55) in Georgia. No time for BBQ, just gas and coffee.

550 miles later all is good. My idler pulley was making a lil squeak this morning. A quick stop at Advance and it’s no longer an issue. One great thing about the 2uz is that parts are availble in any small town USA. This was a big reason I wanted this drivetrain, over the 1fz. I am a huge fan of the six, but nowadays it’s almost an exotic. Especially if you need a part, in a pinch. The 2uz is also way easier to work on, than the 1fz.

Good catch, would've been a problem popping a belt on the road.

Might end up with a Smok'n Pig!

Although in attendance for just one day, I had a blast at Gsmtr ‘18!

Nice view. Where? Step on it if you hear Banjos. :rofl:

Heading home after a fun day in the mountains. What’ll you have? Burger and onion rings at the Varsity in Atlanta.

The 2uz runs great and the 80 chassis offers a smooth ride. With that being said, without; ac, sound proofer, heat shields, carpets and other creature comforts, I was worn out after 500 miles of driving. Ill admit I’m spoiled by the comfort my other vehicles offer. I realize all these can be added to the 55, but am not certain if I have the time/budget to get it all done over the next few weeks, before PP18. It’s going to be close.
