Got the rest of the headliner out and started sanding down the interior... Baby steps! Still have a few exposed areas I need to scuff up, then take out the seats and carpet to get to the floor. Should be ready to roll in bedliner after Mardi Gras.

I also kinda worked out the dent in the passenger rear QP. Just trying to get the general shape back so I can Monstaline the exterior down the road. Still needs a little work, but it's getting there. I'm leaning towards cutting off the bottom of part of it. Might make it easier to deal with.

We're in severe thaw out here in MT: 60s last week, 40's and 50's this week. Took the cruiser in the hills behind my house in Butte (a 3 minute drive to get to endless trails) and went to the top of one. I was by myself or I'd have taken a picture of the trail to get up here, muddy and icy. It was clean before I got to the top.

Pintler Mountain range in the background. This is just the very top of a hill, in front and in back are steep inclines. Had to go down in 4-Low 1st. Climbing LC.jpg
 
Got my front/rear brake package in from Onur (New calipers, lines, drums, shoes, discs, hardware, LC80 MC, etc.):

 
Stretched Barbed Wire.

decided to flop it, then mid way through decided not.








 
You weren't even close to flopping :hillbilly:

Get some wheels with a wider backspace and you will be more stable!!
 
Finally dove in and did some work to my 85 Fj60.
I got bored and went out and ordered new fan belts. Since I noticed the ones on there where cracked.
While removing radiator and hoses I noticed housing was full of silicone. So there I ago back to the dealer and order hoses TStat gaskets and clamps. And bought a used tstat housing from valley hybrids. Since I am this far might as well. Also cut the fan shroud in half. To make thins easier next time
Also looking into buying them battery cables from mud member here and replace my old ones.

Geez, 5 mounts per side - you must get a deal from the guy who makes those. How high is the bottom of the rack from the crown of
your roof with those mounting feet? Truck really looks great!

Yeah, I get a perk or two from him occasionally... I'll measure and let you know.. Approx. 1"

Took my front driveshaft out, and after much searching for parts for my double cardan, took it all apart. Buffed and repainted with an epoxy based paint. Now ready for new ujoints, regrease and install

I replaced a boned out front pass. leaf spring with a heavier spring pack that had an add-a-leaf. I gained 1.25" of lift. I have yet to do the driver's side, so I have a 'cruiser lean' - for sure!

Finally got around to purchase clips to install my lower rocker mouldings on my FJ62.
