Loaded up a friend's Razor and finished pulling the abandoned house down.

Then took the truck and Razor out and played in the fields picking out spots for tree stands for this fall.

Decided to check property markers from a land survey being done at another friend's property close by and found some mud near the flooded creek bed.

Wasn't very prepared, but at least had my strap from pulling the house down. Got to use my winch for the first time ... I now know why guys have two batteries.

IH8..................?
 
You putting two of them in?
No, i install second compressor on an other car

Curious about where you drill/tap for the fittings. I need to do this one day on my 5.9 as my air compressor is my Achilles heel

This fitting for a crankcase vent.
 
In Spain looking for barn finds. Lots of specimens, not a lot of great deals that I’ve found. Enjoying driving a Prado and seeing the mountains. On my way to this remote’ish village to look at an 80 series.

Headed to Andora for the night, then check out a 45 and an 80.
 
Installed these spring isolators. The top coils would rattle against each other whenever driving on dirt.

I installed 2 new front shocks on my 1997 lexus lx450 . This was my first ever shock change on any vehicle . I was told by the good people on this forum to spray the nuts and bolts . I crawled under the truck to spray and I couldn't find the nut . I went back and to look at some photos and watched some videos and realized I had no nut ,washer or bottom rubber . I grabbed a hold of the shock and pushed it up and I could see the stump of rusted stem . I had no idea the stems of shocks could rust that bad . All I had to do was remove the top 2 nuts that looked nice and clean . I sprayed then for a good week in advance . When I went to unscrew them they would not unscrew ,so I talked to my local mechanic and he said to cut them off so I got out my grinder and cut them off . The one on the passenger side was easy to get to but the driver side was tricky I had to turn the grinder upside down and feed it through behind the brake lines . I took a photo of how I feed the grinder in to get to the nut . I probably did it the wrong way but it worked . Next up is the back to shocks . Any tips on the 2 rear shock removal would be great .

Had to do the same thing to one of the shocks on my 80 when it was about 10 degrees out. Super fun.

I removed all the crappy looking woodgrain from the dash/doors/console yesterday. Massive improvement but now I really notice how nasty the carpet is. Probably just order more parts tomorrow for replacing something else lol....
 
Picked Blue up a younger brother to play with.

92 HDJ80 3xL. Also a fellow Dutchman.

Thanks to @dci blair for the assist!
