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

[bloc]

Still have a bit of adjustment to do before the inner fenders will bolt up to the shell but after the 4th try setting it down on the frame all bolts lined up and hopefully this body will stay on this frame indefinitely.

Haven't even started thinking about wiring yet.

Tomorrow I'll get the body mount bolts tightened, inner fenders attached, shifter mounted, start to see how difficult the ECU/TCU merger will be, and a bunch of other odds & ends, but it probably won't be done for a few weeks. Have to head back home for work.

I guess this means you are going to sell these to @Qball as well?

Fortunately I am not looking to go to 37s.

@Qball what do you think Qball?

They look great! Put them on your LC then take some pictures. Personally I would black them out, because I don't like shiny stuff like a fish or girl.

Aussie injection coming up!

They are harsh on the driveline, got one in the front of my hilux and it loves to snap cv's as they engage under load, if you lose traction, then give it a bit, and suddenly the locker engages and shock loads everything...bang

Finally finished my console by mounting my pad View attachment 1142092

Any details on this console? Not tuffy is it?

He is installing in the rear axle of an AWD 80, it is basically transparent. He also have seen first hand on how it works and he also have waited long enough to ensure longevity from long term testing.

replaced DS spindle, repacked birfs/bearings. New rear brakes/parking brake. Question: Is it normal to have almost 5lbs of mud packed into the backside of the rear rotors? No wonder the parking brake wasn't working right.

Is that bedliner? What brand did you use? I assume it is black.

Bought a triple locked cruiser back in august and went through replaced CDL switch and 4 lo switch on the T/C and the system still didnt work. Last Saturday I was driving it after all the rain came in from Mexico and decided to put it in 4 lo for the hell of since my street is torn up due to construction. The center diff locked up and the abs light came on.

I have come to be believe rain cured my electrical problem.

That or you didn't have an electrical problem but a lack of use problem and it finally got loosened up and broke free. This is reported fairly often.

Yes it's black. It's protex by sem.

It's not a Tuffy. I built it and it just so happened to kind of have a Tuffy look.

Here's the thread I posted for it.

Thought I'd try cleaning my O2 sensors before throwing $$$ at new set. The 93 threw a code back in July. First did the fire & water method now soaking in O2 safe cleaner overnight. I will check before reinstalling to make sure they are in spec.

Did not check resistance prior to reinstalling the O2 sensors but have been driving all week code free.

Well a couple of weekends ago! Sausage and pepperoni sticks on their way!

 

[93yotasr5]

Threw some new gas struts on the good and rear hatch. It's so nice not having to use a pair of vice grips to keep them open anymore!! And at 32$ a set it was hard to resist.

Took the LC up to Wahiawa Gardens.
Beautiful place, several miles of easy hiking trails, and a great place to unwind after a long weekend of working on the LC.

Glad to see the "funny" guys didn't scare you off and, nice to see Wahiawa again. I used to live there back in the day.
