What Did You Do with Your 80 This Weekend? (22 Viewers)

Stupid cheap and stupid easy to replace the fuel door spring with OEM. Delta VS sells it, and it's readily available from Toyota as well.

Did yours flip out years ago?

Awesome thank you. I found the PN on Partsouq, I have a friend that works at a back parts counter for Toyota and seeing if he can get it for me.

You‘ve just made my day. Thanks a lot.

Got the spare tire mount leveling kit installed. Much better! It should've been like this from the factory. We also spent Sunday chasing the last of the fall colors in the Ozarks. Met a friend in Jasper to pick up a pair of Hella 7" spotlights, spotted another 80 series at Kyle's Landing, and got a surprise "D" light appearance last night.

Took it to the trailhead for a ride. For anyone interested, coney flats look's to be open for a snow run. I would have thought it would be closed by now.
Thought about going up a bit but decided not to since I was running solo.

This was actually over the last two weekends. But I was very fortunate to meet up with Georg @orangefj45 and pick up this finely refreshed HF2AV that his shop completed for me: all new seals, gears, and Sumo 3.15:1 Crawl Gears. MAJOR DIFFERENCE!!!! Thanks @orangefj45

Started to mockup the chopped 80s back wall and finished the ass end of the tray.

Spent the past month of weekends combining two broken '96's to make a pre-baseline, straight, rust-free stock 80.

Been dealing with an air flow meter (AFM) issue with mine. It's been sitting for about a month waiting for Napa to send part back from PA. A1cardone is located out there and supposed to R&R it. Anyone know where I can get a good used AFM for 94 fzj80??

I would sell you my spare but I would be SOL if I needed it down the road.

Check the part out section in the classifieds, craigslist or even Ebay.

Superglue

Machined an aluminum block and bolted it and their rack stash and to the delta swing out, all used existing 1/4” holes. Wanted to keep it high and tight and so far working great.

Do you have to worry about salt damage if you spend too much time in beach sand? Or is it only the salt water you want to avoid?

I'm sure prolonged exposure to beach sand would contribute to corrosion, but this was the first and only time I've driven on the beach or the dunes. Still, when I got home I got under the truck and everything a good blast with the air compressor to get as much sand out of crevices as possible, and then gave it a good wash down with salt-away. I think that's going to do fine.
