Catching a snake in the road (Florida pine snake and somewhat rare) and picking up roadkill. In this case a young river otter in great condition. Snake was released and river otter will live on as a taxidermied specimen.

Started working on the front 1/2 of my @dnp carpet kit, and adding some sound deadening as I go. Also found the evidence of previous body work that Monroy and @CenTXFJ60 spotted (eagle eyed old farts)

Put these stripes on my blue 60. Problem is the orange and yellow are not the right color (see the white 60). Does anyone know of a company that can make a custom roll with a 7.5” width? Prefer a domestic US company due to lead times. I ordered this kit from Fastdecals.com
That long bolt looks like the bolt I need for my A/C bracket. Do you know the correct "name" for that bolt? I need one. Thanks.I installed a new Aisin water pump, FCT-049 fan clutch and belts. Broke my factory alternator lock down bolt which is NLA while putting it all back together. I found a new Toyota setup compiled courtesy of @mattressking reusing my old washer which is also NLA. I could have reused my original tensioner bolt as well.

Installed a real "check engine light" in place of the factory "choke" light that I wired up when I did the 2FE install. Since the cluster was out, I also fabbed and installed the "skirt" that closes the opening above the tilt steering wheel. Thanks to @ToyotaMatt for the lens and the other goodies for the 40.
If you want to hand out some cash for a better-than-stock replacement, I recommend the U-Bolt Flip Kit from 4Plus. I got the kit for my rears, but I like them so much that I'm considering getting a pair for the fronts.

Battery disconnect, with a keyed padlock. Not perfect but a very good deterrent.

Ever thought of following in George's footsteps to become a hand model?
These absolutely saved my 3FE a few weeks ago, such a good kit.

It is PN 90119-08888. No idea if it works for that application.

Why did you need to do this?

If you don’t mind, what is this setup?

I don’t mind at all. Could you do me a favor and clarify what you’re wanting to know? What I did was cut out the tube that goes between the frame rails which the rear shocks mount to. If I missed the mark with your question, fire away and glad to respond.

Roof rust and gutter sealant repair. (See post #15,555) @FJ62 Jose
Used flap wheel to remove paint and most rust.
Used Plexiglas knife to cut out old sealant-discovered that the rust has propagated from interior.
Wirewheeled the gutter clear of remaining sealant and loose rust.
Ready for Penetrol injection via cheap syringe and cocktail stirrer straws. . .
Backstory-
I first did this repair 5 years ago, when I discovered two small pinhole rust bubbles, and re-did all of the gutter sealant and painted both underneath the gutter(above cargo window) as well as up on the roof edge. The primer/patch paint is visible below the gutter as I did not place a color coat there at that time. Since the Road maintenance freaks like to spray a salt brine during the winter months, the fine mist inevitably gets into every niche.
Conclusion now is that I will need to peel off the interior headliner in order to apply a dousing of Penetrol to the interior parts of the roof panel / gutter/ body.
