Re-tapped the threads for the 4 bolts that hold the stone tray beneath the belts, they were a but chewed out but the tap made em good again and used new M8x1.25 bolts so no more rattles !
Then went for a day trip up to Craigs Hut and cooked up a couple of nice burgers over the fire by the King River before doing the 5 or so crossings of it.
80's now sleeping till next weekend.....

Replaced breather hose from valve cover to the air intake. Removed old Motorola cell phone speaker system and rats nest of wires from previous owner. Found one bullet and token for one free item at DQ under center console.

Ouch....

Yes, exactly what went thru our heads when We got the call about this poor 94 FZJ80 that was just in an accident. To make things worse? 49k miles on her.

Yeah and it was great again this year. I was hanging with some guys that wheel their 80's hard and we kept digging up new to me rowdy crags in those rocks, had a big time. Biggest setback was the flash hail storm that inundated my antique Marmot tent, but everything dried up enough to enjoy the trip.

Finally (an exhaust shop) did my exhaust. CAT delete. Full stainless 2.5” from the O2 sensors to the back! One silencer, no silencer at the back. Really happy with the sound. Also the engine feels more “free” than before!

Sounds expensive, how much did they charge for everything? I need a whole new exhaust too.
 
@Ecliff5 What cooler is that?
