that's a nice looking bumper
I hate you.
Pulled the wiper motor and wiper arm assembly and greased all pivot points. Then cleaned out 27 years of crap that was piled up in there.
Did this help your motor at all? Mine is lagging hard. On a dry window it won't even really rotate the wipers...
I see a business idea to help the FJ60 series. Come up with a conversation kit to use the hemi joints and ditch the nylon bushings. JasonOn mine the nylon bushing turned to dust so I built new linkage out of mild steel rod and heim ends.

If I do it again I'll likely use a regular heim on the passenger wiper.

Removed the old busted radiator and mounted up the new one. I had a REALLY hard time removing and putting back the two lower bolts on the passenger side... just couldn't get my hands behind the a/c condenser. Even with it unbolted. Had to get some hired helpprincess
to get em. Bought a grinder and cut the fan shroud thanks to all the great advice on this forum. I'll need to do the water pump eventually, so hopefully that saved at least one headache down the road.
I also spent nearly just as much time cleaning/degreasing all the parts that were removed and the area underneath and behind the radiator.
Gonna button her up tomorrow and take her for the first drive in about a month.
