So far they are good. Only got tears but with fresh bushings things seem a little nicer in the back. Worth the $30/each. I think Sachs is a little better quality than Monroe or job but not sure if that matters on these rigs.

Washed the Dodge and camper with my son for our family trip to Yellowstone while Snowball❄ just watched with jealousy. I wish I was taking the 60 but the wife loves the cozy camper.
The campers been a chore. Bought in 2014 and enjoyed 2 seasons before dry rot reared it’s ugly head. Spent a half year learning how to rebuild a camper. Here was its first trip to 3 Creeks Meadow. The front bubble windows were the source of the problem. After that decided front windows aren’t worth the headache last of another leak.

Changing shocks on these things is about as a easy as changing the oil.
In the paint booth at Land Cruiser Restoration........more to come.

Single stage or are you going with a clear coat?
I want to paint mine in the future, but I want to stick with single stage.
Two months of hard work finally,, paid for it.

Been trying to hunt down a vacuum leak and figured a good place to start was swapping out the old lines. Don't think I've found it yet, but it was definitely time to get em swapped.
Just bought my 2nd FJ62 about two weeks ago..going to spend the evening attempting to fix some oil leaks and hope it’s not the RMS. Next week the new grille, mirrors, and side vents will be in and I can get it looking a little nicer.

Did the fj62 relay window mod, made 100% difference in window speed and reliability. Possibly the best "mod" I have done. Took a picture of the rig too. Stock suspension with fill length AAL's and 235/85/16. Sits pretty perfect?

Replaced the window motor with a Camry/Cressida replacement motor. Works great! Except, I switched the wires by accident....so up on the switch is down lol
Then finally swapped out the old rear speakers too. Soooo much better!

Finally got my rig back. Shipped it to Massachusetts due to relocation. Too busy to work on it right now so I had John at Balise Toyota in West Springfield file the rocker arms (to remove a ticking noise that wasn’t an exhaust leak), balance both drive shafts (to remove a vibration) and swapped out an out of true OEM wheel that was causing a waa waa waa noise at freeway speeds.
Got it out for its first East Coast Adventure.

Looks like you did a full on job with the lines. I used throttle body cleaner to find a pesky vacuum leak and mine was a leaky diaphragm on the EGR valve. Wasn't even a line! I ended up doing an EGR delete but...if the lines aren't fixing the problem...could be a diaphragm somewhere!
Took the extended family to Land Between the Lakes, found a great spot in Neville Bay. Summer camping at its finest! (Including an army of mosquitos!)

Dare me.
What did I do w/ it? Pulled more parts off the block and spun it on a stand. Sigh...
