What did you do with your 60 this weekend? (27 Viewers)

[Spudman]

well I spent the day removing my rear seat and building a seat mount that uses the factor mounting holes and holds to front seats side by side. This mod along with my third row of two front seat facing rear ward gives me 6 bucket seats in my 60. I'll post some more pictures tomorrow when it's daylight.... but heres a few teaser pics.

I'm not finished with the front riser bracket, but in order to keep the seats low I removed the slider, and mounted the seat base directly to the frame. I need to add some gussets and finish welding the riser bar, but for the most part the design is done. It adds a lot more room and replaces that "flat" bench seat with more "comfortable" buckets, and allows a good amount of space per passenger on their outside side, it also makes getting in and out of the beck easier, again, no mod's to the body and I'm using original mounting locations

Hey mate

Looking good, I was looking at the picture for a while trying to workout what seats they were.

Spent a little bit of time replacing window weatherstrip and glass channel runs. I also cleaned out the doors and coated the interiors with Fluid Film. I think it looks so much better without the chrome. Its nice to have fresh seals on the doors too.

That's looks awesome without the chrome, are you going to take the chrome strip off around the windows on the doors as well

Thanks Spudman, I think so too... Im a little hesitant about removing those small chrome strips around the glass. I suppose I can inspect and see how the paint is under there. However, I will be removing the chrome around the cargo class. Liftgate glass will have a solid black locking strip as well (truck came with no moulding at all on the rear glass seal anyway, so it needs something)

Good stuff Patrick

Mate where did you buy the rubber weatherstrips

I bought them from Toyotapartsoverstock.com, though you can get them from any Toyota parts dealer. This thread ( https://forum.ih8mud.com/threads/window-felt-replacement.285184/ ) goes into detail about the part numbers you'll need.

Cheers

thanks BTW

For the hook spanner I used an adjustable that ranges 1-1/4 to 3"

The face spanner was also an adjustable (10-50mm iirc, I borrowed it). And it had 4mm pins in it.

I washed it!!!

 

[mountaineer60]

Cruised it 455 miles roundtrip to the mountain for an early fishing and late season ski trip. And one the best parts of it was it actually hit 75 mph on the highway.

Finally got all my stuff to swap the water pump. All new hoses, gaskets, belts, etc.

dumb question...how do I remove the AC belt. the other two belts were obvious. For some reason this one isn't.
