I’ve read the whole series-LOVE them all.
But I missed it-what’s the name of your 60?
What did you do with your 60 this weekend?

She is lovingly known around here as Hell B!tch.
Named after the horse in the LD series. Different color maybe, but puts up a fight the same and just won't quit.
Put on the winter wheels and installed new pads. Drivers side went smoothly, passenger has a seized inner, lower piston. Is it worth upgrading to the 4Runner or T100 calipers while I’m replacing a caliper?
I filled it up a few times on my way to big bend. My hope is that only the die hards come out in occasion of the fed shut down and we get the place to ourselves.
[QUOTE = "HemiAlex, post: 12090545, member: 112414"] Je l'ai rempli plusieurs fois avant de me rendre à Big Bend. Mon espoir est que seuls les acharnés sortent à l’occasion de la fermeture de la Fed et que nous obtenons la place pour nous-mêmes.

I’m admiring the tether for the gas cap.

Worked Friday afternoon and Saturday. Install the rebuilt PS gearbox, modify the hydro assist clamp, modify the hydro assist mounts, install hydro assist, construct new transmission crossmember, run brake lines and get it sitting on the Hutchinson DOT beadlocks and 37” Cooper ST Maxx. Slid the 4plus bumper into its new home.

When I first got my truck, first tank of gas I left the cap on the roof. When I was pulling back into the neighborhood I heard a god awful roar coming from the rear. Then I noticed the insane amount of fumes building up in the cabin. By the time I got to the house I realized what had happened. I walked to the front of the neighborhood where the gas cap slid off the roof (god awful rumble) and waited for the traffic to clear. Of course the last person who drove past was on her phone... she hit it and totally smashed it.
big end bearings on my 1HDT. it’s an earlier one and i know some have bearing failure. mine is now over
500 000km so i figured i’d better just do them for piece of mind. not too big of a job in the end and my originals looked pretty good. perfect polish on the crank journals too

Sorted out the seized caliper - only took two different reman calipers to get one that worked. NAPA had it and a loaner brake bleeder. Good thing I insisted on putting the winter wheels and fresh brake pads on:

Looks fun and I see your local. We should go camping sometime.
Definitely. Though I’ll have a challenge keeping up with you and the new 37s!

Today I’m not working. It’s a weekend. I finally achieved this...
That's always a beautiful thing to see!
