I installed a Atoto F7 10" single din. Look into it.

Took advantage of an 82F mid-April day in Chicago to wash the truck.
Love that color combo!
Hit up the remote OBX 2 weekends ago.....cool and windy
I took off my wheels and painted them black. They only came primed and they had faded a lot. Also took off the spare tire carrier and basket to grease the spindle they open on.

Did you have any issues with clearance when using the ATPEAM spring compressor, particularly for the valves in the back for cylinder #6? Do you think you could have used the ATPEAM tool to compress the springs initially to get the keepers out, as well as for reinstalling? I have one of those tools and I'm hoping it will work for the whole job. Thanks.
I used one like the one pictured in the first post on the original post (not sure why we are now in the what did you do this weekend post?). Only had a clearance issue on the very back spring. I "improvised" using a pry bar on top of the spring retainer and leveraged against the firewall. Worked well enough to get the keepers out with a magnet and 2 extra set of hands.
Finally fix the chronically leaking exhaust pipe flange gasket on exhaust manifold. No matter what I tried it always seemed to start leaking. Sometimes sooner some time later, some people might think this is extreme but I was over it.
Yep , Man a Fre 2 piece ceramic headers. Leak is gone now.

That must sound terrific.
Quite under the hood ( well as quite as a 2f can be) and a nice throaty ( not obnoxious ) exhaust coming out the pipe.
Starter solenoid had been acting up off and on for a few weeks and finally was at a point where I decided it was time. The starter for a 2h is a pretty common Denso design used in many applications, and figured out that the solenoid part of it was identical to a Dodge Cummins starter. So I ordered a LarryB's heavy duty starter rebuild kit from Amazon for about $40, which have 90% larger copper contacts, tore it down, cleaned it up, and she's starting perfect again. Here's a few before/after pics:
Is that Part Number R90SS ?
Took the old girl to her first car show, and pretty sure she was the Belle of the ball.

Yep, sure is. Amazon actually has it on sale right now for cheaper than I bought it for.

Thanks for the info. I'll add this to my spares.

Day 1 of a 10 day trip from Alabama through southern Louisiana for field work. First day was about 450 miles. Photo is at the Mississippi rest area on I-10. Pulling the 5x10 trailer with an ATV my mileage is a solid 10 mpg, the in-cab vacuum gauge hovers around 5 psi. I can hold 70 mph once I get up to speed, but that may take a couple or three miles. Heavily loaded FJ60 with 300k on a rebuilt 2F. May be slow and a gas guzzler but it's solid and reliable. Total mileage on this trip will easily be over 1500 miles.
