What did you do with your 60 this weekend? (30 Viewers)

[CruiserTrash]

Its a bracket from a fj62 that goes in that same spot. Theres another plastic bracket that mounts to this one that the speaker is supposed to actually mount to. I didnt get that bracket and it was a lot of extra work to get the speaker to mount to this metal bracket. I just picked this one up used out of a fj62, if you want to add cargo speakers and make life as easy as humanly possible, get the entire assembly from the 62. This metal bracket, the plastic frame that mounts to this, and the speaker grille. I had to make the little S bracket that connects the bottom. It was pretty easy, you just drill a hole in the body right there and use a button bolt or something to attach it

I might try to get my hands on one and make reproductions. Seems like a great way to mount a speaker. It fits in 60s meaning it applies to the entire 6x range I would assume. I need to check if Toyota still makes it first though. I doubt it, but it's worth checking.

Dude if you were to make some, and make the brackets actually fit the back of a modern 6.5 inch speaker instead of having to hack up the adapter that comes with the speakers i would be first on the list to order on day 1. Please keep me updated!

What roof bars are those? Looks great.

Thanks! They are a one-off that Pat (@dogfishlake ) at Bowfin made as a prototype. He said he may end up eventually making them, but I know he is already pretty swamped just keeping up with demand for product.

Do you have any more detailed pics of it? I am about to ditch my wilderness rack in favor of something a bitter lower profile.

Led a group of 17 rigs up to Kavanaugh Ridge in the Eastern Sierra on Saturday. Camped out from Wednesday-Sunday. Kavanaugh is rather tame…but wonderful views. On Friday we took 8 rigs up Mt. Patterson out of Bridgeport, Ca. A bit more technical. Camping was super with a bunch of great folks.

Utah is so incredibly diverse and beautiful. Continues to amaze me.
i drove up 11.5k feet, mountain range just east of Beaver,UT last Saturday.
Highly recommend this area.

FYI. You don’t need the 2 $150 sliders from scheel Mann or the 2 $185 brackets from planted to mount scheel Mann seats in your 60. With very minimal mods to the stock brackets, the seats bolt right up.

Are those the touring models?

Theyre the Vario F models, but the mounting holes and spacing on the Touring ones are the same on just about all of their seats besides the sport line

I would need to figure out how that would interface with the panels, whether stock or the aftermarket ones I make. If I see a 62 being parted out, I'll grab one of those. More to come.

If you are on Facebook, Brooke Carr should have a few sets available. Igot them from him. There are 3 welded in nuts to the bracket. The two on the top just bolt into the truck, the bottom one needs a little S bracket on one side and a flat bracket on the other side.

THIS is living the life! Fishing in the Ozarks and traveling in a beautiful 60 is my idea of a great time! I can't wait to do more of this in mine with my son!

Its a CJ jeep center console. Rampage, VDP, and Rugged Ridge are all companies that make and sell the exact same console. Its a decent armrest kind okayish cup holders.

Heres an example

New hood insulator makes a huge difference in engine bay appearance. Still need to put a better looking intake in there at some point
