I've got the OE saw blade wheels. Just need it to stop snowing so I can get away with economic tires :banana:

New tires ready for install. Thanks @wct49
 
pulled batteries to charge in the warm indoors, my fault for letting diesel illiterate roommate try to start it in minus 17c. pulled water methanol injector/ headlight washerfluid tank to flip level low switch 180 degrees so light flicks on when empty not constant on when full.
 
Replaced my radiator with the assistance of skilled @CaptClose and his tools at his place yesterday. Went pretty good for the most part.

Thank you @Billyfj7312ht for helping me procure this ADRAD radiator for my FJ73. It was a direct bolt in and appeared to be high quality, even came with new rubber mounts.

It was nice having a 70 series in my garage Matt. Thanks for bringing it over and trusting me with your Cruiser. Here's a few more angles of this beauty!

I got my rebuilt brake booster back in.
It took me 30 minutes to figure out the rebuilder had "clocked" the grommet and elbow 180 degrees out.

Spent a long time trying to bleed the brakes.
There is still air in there somewhere and the pedal action feels notchy. Like it encounters an obstacle.

Gave up for now.

LSPV in the rear is the classic place where bleeding the brake system chokes.
