What did you do with your 60 this weekend? (16 Viewers)

[stayalert]

Pulled a tilted (storm blow over) hung up White pine upright and beyond so I could process it in a nice open meadow instead of having to process it while it was all hung in some neighboring trees.....~55 feet tall and 30"DBH - After I brushed it out I stood the stick back up so the root and soil layed flat again, then I dropped the stem....

Now I really want to drop a V8 in mine. Damn............

 

[stayalert]

It was a big tree - saved a ton of time by puling it into the meadow....

Installed the smittybilt console. For $100 I'm pleased but it was a tight fit in between the bmw seats.

Me and the boy headed out on an urban adventure to the airport.

Big fun for all.

Building up my rear Trail Tailor bumper, still have some work left on it, just trying to weld around work and when I can get shop time! @reevesci Does anyone near Durango, CO have a 285-75R-16 spare tire I can use? I got this spare wheel from a 2013 Tacoma! @Trapper50cal

I still need to weld up the gas can holder, that will go on the ladder. Using AT gas can holders (AT Can Holder - Scepter) since I got one from a friend! Thanks Mike!

started do sand down my cruiser found a lot of bondo and some rust under it.

It's a Man a Fre long range tank. Make sure you get the baffled tank, no fuel sloshing around.

Word of advice, get rid of those cupholders and build yourself something better. Mine gave up the ghost after about 3 months.

The best to take of the paint are those discs

not cheap but very fast

Dude, I actually really dig those seat covers. Mind giving a hing as to where you got them? My BMW seat covers are hammered.

Glad you like the look. I found them on Amazon. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005N53C9I/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o08_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

To make them fit nice and tight I used headliner spray and pulled them on nice and tight. They have been on there all year and look fine and don't slip around. For as cheap as they are I might just pull them off if they get nasty and replace.

Have a good weekend!

Nothing too exciting. Tested out my new to me steering wheel. Had the aftermarket one on there from the PO swapped out for an OEM one (thanks @mel lowe).

Also continued the tear down work on the HJ after a few months of no work on it. Had my husband remove the rear windows (which he said was super easy after I showed him the wagon gear video) and drop the healiner while I attempt to remove 30 year old roof insulation/mouse habitat!!
Almost ready to have new metal welded in the roof and then new paint. Slowly making progress!

Hope everyone has a great weekend!!!

I found some pt cruiser seats for $25 at the wrecking yard yesterday. I installed them this morning and I am very pleased with the new fit and ease of the installation. My old 60 headrests actually fit the new seats.

I also replaced my duct taped intake hose with a plastic hose that I found by the dumpster at work. It fits snug and perfect

New FJ62 speedo cable @beno into the '86 FJ60. I like using the FJ62 cable because it's a little longer than the other 60 series cables which provides for a little more working room behind the gauge cluster when the cluster is being pulled or installed.

Really? Is that because of the auto trans?
