Cruiser and I jumped in the LX for a little morning pew pew session. First time suppressing 45-70, 10mm and 22 CB Shorts. Temps were in the single digits so didn’t stay long.

I used to have a 6.4 power stroke and I had it set up with a block heater, two battery heaters, and an oil pan heater. Had the outlet on a timer to come on at 3am till 6am. That thing fired up like it was summer time and warmed up so much faster. Any amount of pre warming will help though.
That sounds perfect.
 
Cant tell in the pics, but are you able to run those caps? I have 105s also, and didnt think the caps cleared the rear.
No…was no way they’d fit, I tried modifying them but no dice…so the one cap lives on the spare specifically for this task
 
That sounds perfect.
Haha thanks! It was a culmination of battling the frustration. Only thing better would be a 12v heating pad wrapped around the fuel filter housing that ran once the truck was started.

I day dream of swapping an M57 into my LX450 one day… Sadly I don’t have the skill, time, space, or money. But maybe, one day…
 
Chased down some issues this southern Colorado cold has brought out of my warm blooded desert truck. Nothing major but just random little things: Hood struts, hatch struts, radiator cap, trans cooler hoses.

I’m more than impressed with it in the snow/ice. Last year I had my Ram Powerwagon up here and that thing was slipping and sliding all over the mountain. I had to winch myself up the driveway more than once. The 80 has yet to even slip a tire coming up. The Ram had 35” Duratracs and the 80 has 33” patagonia XTs.
