I removed the OEM roof rack. PO used long screws to hold it down which pulled up the metal around each screw. They were also so long that the sunroof was hitting them when I tried to open it. Took me a minute to figure that one out. I put some black silicone over the holes (roof is bedlined).

Removed the running boards and mud flaps-instant lift! Pulled most of the carpet out. You realize how dirty a vehicle is when you remove the carpet. I plan on installing some sound deadening material and then bedline over it. I'll probably throw some rubber floor mats on top of that to keep down the abrasion on the bedliner.

Replaced the lifts for the tailgate and hood. Ordered some 315/75r16 GY MTRs with Kevlar. I found them for a good price. Sprayed some penetrating oil on all of the body mount bolts. Just waiting for a break in the weather. I think I'm addicted...

What was the change total? So far I'm a little over $33 in change I found under the console/seats between the two land cruisers I've purchased..

And probably $200 in spilled starbucks

I was scavenging from the 80 at the junkyard yesterday. Found $4.23 in change under the seats and in the ashtray. It's kind of amazing how much "stuff" just got left in this 80. It wasn't wrecked or anything.

I only found about $1.52. Cheap bastards... Plenty of crumbs and old french fries though. Yum!
 
Drove through the misty mountains to the rainy-windward side of the island....

....and came back with a truck load of palm trees.

And since @Aloha Jen gets lots of likes for selfies, my wife took this to post;
How dare you accuse me of posting gratuitous selfie photos to up my like's count at some underhanded attempt of dethroning @NLXTACY as the king of likes!

C'mon, can we at least attempt to keep this thread tech related! Now....my LCs inline 6 preformed flawlessly in getting me to the beach on this glorious winter day.
 
Jeebus.

That's it. Oh it's on now.

From now on I will only post pictures of me at the beach. Take that!

That's quite a valve train, I'll tell you what.

How many times can you hit that "like" button, anyway?

You think people want to see that?

Or this?
