Thanks,
I just dropped off the head to the shop this morning and just ordered tons of parts from @beno
I can't afford to let the shop order for me they will overcharge on everything they get.

We've been doing work with this mechanic for many many years and he's a friend of m dads so I don't think he's too bad on us. Luckily for me while I'm still in school my orients have paid for all the mechanic needs of the 80 while I put all the mods in it

Great looking work on the cats, hope it passed the visual.

Passed. Good for another 2yrs

Great work man, I'm restoring/building a 1ton 48 willys and out of the whole build the exhaust is kicking my a$$, I think I'm bringing it to a shop once it moves.

Agree. The custom exhaust work is a grip

Replaced the 3 O-rings that are in that coolant intake pipe. Took all of 5 minutes.

OME stock replacement suspension with man-a-fre spacers. I also removed the side steps & added the CDL switch to the dash, just before the rain!

I'd be remiss if I didn't mention Iggy's guidance, encouragement, & assistance...

I'm about to make the same suspension upgrade.
What size spacers did you use?
Spacers on front and rear, or just front? Thanks

Jealous.

jvazquez53, my Cruiser is a '96 and I put '00 brake pads in the front calipers. It's a tight fit, but they will go in if the pistons are fully seated, but I'm not sure the '93 and '96 have the same front calipers.

 

[jvazquez53]

Jealous.

Its gets better!

Installed Wits' End sticker=moderate property value decrease

Razor clamming/camping on the coast.

Good times!

So where did you camp along the coast? I just moved to Vancouver WA and I want to find some good coastal camping spots. From what I've read there are no "on beach" camping areas in WA. My coworker did the clam thing last weekend and said they were delicious.

Installed 2.5 OME 850/863 lift with Icon stage 1 shocks as well 35" Toyos and a Short Bus bumper from Slee. What a transformation!

Also finished wiring up and installing the overhead subtank gauge/altimeter. I've been a busy boy!
