@ontopofm
What wheels are those on @socallove 's truck?

Those are Alcoa Forged TRD Ivan Stewart edition from 2008 TRD FJ cruisers, I believe the Ivan Stewart project got canned bc of the poor economy in 2008. I scored the wheels off a guy whose uncle worked for the TRD team. I have been looking for a few more bc Of some rock rashes but haven't been able to find any, they are pretty hard to come by, I should have saved this set for the mall and run some beater wheels on the rocks

Not sure this is a real question but if so. No not likely.

According to the Dometic website it draws 1731w, you would need 5 very large solar panels and an inverter.

I was semi serious. There is one for sale locally for $350.

Does your AC suck that bad or do you need to hang meat?

AC is good but this is Florida man! It's freaking hot except for that 1 day of spring that we get every 4 years.

I thought it was only on February 30th.

I hear ya, but seriously, after my truck gets cooled down the slider needs to be moved to the tip of the red it gets that cold.

Ouch. Sounds like an investment.

No complains here, unicorns are hard to come by, add in low mileage and it was a no brainer

View attachment 1461067 View attachment 1461068 View attachment 1461069 Installed my new double Cardin shaft.

The double carden goes at the transfercase, not the differential. Set up like this it defeats the purpose, and will be noisy at speed.

Made up some bushing press tools so that I can start replacing some bushings that I ignored first time around. I threw them up on the site as well.

Sofinally decided to give some love and bling to the poor cruiser. Got a HPS intake tube from Amazon. I then changed the wiper while I was at it.

I'm not sure I've even seen another Safari turbo'd 1FZ in all my time on this site, very cool! Is it intercooled as well?

Yes a huge air to air in front of the radiator and the trans cooler gets relocated as part of the kit.
