Bought a long range fuel tank for my 60. Should arrive in 2-3 weeks.

Worked on the engine bay, a bit on the interior trim, prepped to install bumpers next week, and inspected the undercarriage grommets. Word.

Accumulating more clutch parts for my 84 fj60 (Dusty) dropping of the trans and transfer case!

Replaced some of the dead bulbs in the gauge cluster.

Cheap $4 LED bulbs (per 10) off amazon

I replaced my water pump...hit a snag getting the old one out, had to use the jam nut method to remove a stud. Besides being a filthy dirty messy job it went pretty well. Although longer than I told the princes that it would be...it always takes longer, a guy has to clean up the dirty bits as he goes

Once that was done and I could see the end of the tunnel I started to replace the thermostat. That is where I stopped. Broke 2 studs off in the lower housing and found broken the water temperature sensor. Suck!!! Not sure if this is even available any more need to call Beno and place an order on Monday. I am soaking the bolts in penetrating oil and hope I can get them.

I *believe* the lower is available but the upper isn't

Whellp, last fall I placed a can of Arizona greentea in the spot between the cupholders and the ebrake lever, stopped at the post office and pulled the lever.... Psssss goes the can, and in panic mode I released ebrake, lifted can up spraying all that sugary water into the a/c and other dash controls before I could get the can out the door.
Sooo yesterday was spent carefully disassembling, cleaning and repairing the minor plastic breakage, vacuuming out the dash innards of the doghair, checking all the tiny bulbs and reassembled.

I did the same thing last summer with a Monster.. I was not happy!

Hmmmm. Too much. Changed the fuel filter. Fixed and primed two body panels and put in my new seats and steering wheel. My wife hasn't seen me since I got off work Thursday. Oops.

Sweet steering wheel what year did that come out of? Pretty easy to do?

Pretty productive weekend.
I finished my traction bar (other than paint) and switched a leaf from my rear springs to the front to help reduce body roll and level out my stance. It turned out nice.

Here are some pics. There are more in my build thread.

Took it easy; dropped the spare to assess the condition of the tire and the rim (hadn't done that since purchasing). I think the rim is an original - tire was in better condition than I expected, but its significantly smaller than the tires on the truck so I will have to get a new spare (which I anticipated).

Also verified that the Toyota jack seems to work. Looking forward to installing some lights next month.

Got a little sideways... It looks a lot worse than it felt in the driver's seat.
