Good eye, i've had it on my short list of to-do's and will address it soon.
Wow, makes me feel like I could try my whole roof. Mess it up.. throw the rack on it. lolRattle cans CAN look halfway decent.... not show quality like @MountNGoat's truck, but an acceptable 6-10 footer is achievable even for a hack like me with a few 2k cans and reasonable expectations. Doing a whole truck this way might get expensive anyway though

Rear door latch was stuck, took it apart cleaned and lubbed it to death. Works fine now ...
I have so much sand i really need to start closing gaps .. sandstorm last trip definitely did not help.
Cut some holes and added Anderson/ 12volt plug hybrid socket for compressor fridge and misc electric socks.

Was at H.F. during there last big sale and was looking at there clearance table and saw a Badlands ZXR 12000 pound winch sitting there. It was the last day so everything was an additional 40% off the clearance price and I talked them into another 5%. So I walked out the door paying 122 and change. After unboxing it looked like it had never been out of the box everything sealed up like new. I never really looked at getting one but at that price I had to do it.
All hooked up and works perfectly.

Nothing crazy but got the 4runner wiper arm upgrade done. I should have bought them from city racer instead of my local dealer. Even at wholesale i was like $30 above why CR has it listed at. Either way, got it all on and tested out last night in some light rain. The sound of silence is golden. My original arms with Toyota blades would make this super loud squeak on the up wipe every time. It made driving in the rain so awful. We'll see how these wear in, but from the start its a worthwhile upgrade.
Just got power back after 5 days and lots of trees and limbs down. Cruiser didn't want to start at 6°F with the 4bt and no glow plugs or grid heater, but once I got it going each day, it earned its keep as one of the only vehicles in the neighborhood
that could get around on the ice. It pulled several cars out of ditches, and trees out of driveways. Still a lot of work to do yet, but at least finally working towards normal again.

I bought the full set from Trail Tailor. 60 Series Replacement Door Seals - https://trail-tailor.com/store/p30/60_Series_Replacement_Door_Seals.html
They made a noticeable difference with wind noise on my 60 series.
We don’t get snow too often around here, so had to get out and drive it. Loaded up the family and took the kids sledding.
First trip of the year out to local Palo Duro Canyon State Park. Love the golden glow as sunset approaches.

How do you like the gull wing panel? Care to share where you got it?
Great looking cruiser.
What are the adjustments on those seats...forward and back and recline? Any lumbar? This looks pretty close to OEM dimensions, some aftermarket seats are bulky and look way out of place. Looks like a nice option. What is the material they are covered in?

Thank you! I love the gull wing windows. Theyre made by Emuwing. They’re pricey but makes accessing gear in the back a breeze without having to mess with the rear bumper swing outs. Comes in super handy. They were already installed from the previous owner. Heres a link I was able to find.

did you get the seat adapter base too?
Basic, they use the stock sliders so forward and back with recline. There's no lumbar adjustment but as they are it feels good.
They're a vinyl. Found them from past posts on here lots are happy with them
