Damn I wish we had car washes like that around here! Haha.


Bought my '94 three days ago! Spent some time in the garage replacing the battery and adjusting the hand-brake among some other things.
Then had it thoroughly cleaned!

I took my little brother to the desert for some fun the next day, he kept telling me how awesome my new truck is! :smokin:

One of my auxiliary lights fell of from all the rough desert driving, but it was well worth it. :bounce2: I can already tell this thing is going to be a money vacuum, but I love it.
Anyways, if you'd like to help me fix the other kinks in this truck, please see this thread: Slow acceleration and shaking on highway

Thanks for reading!
 
Just some little things.

Finished up installing LSeat leather skinned seats, center console lid, and front arm rests. Looks great!

Installed the Driver's Side grab handle:

Installed Cup Holders:

A shill for @beno - thanks for getting me two Genuine Toyota Keys cut! Sticker proudly displayed now for all to see:

and lastly - our Wart Hog Mascot!

she's come a long way with more to come!
 
It was not fun at all so I'll make my weekend interesting...

It's been two weeks since I got home and she gave me that wet look...... The wet look you don't want to see.

Then I couldn't resist no more and went down upon her. Oh boy then I saw the whole thing! She was soaking wet!

Whatever position I was at, I see it all over her!

So until yesterday, it was just me and her!! And I took advantage of it! I went to this store that every men seemed to go and got a couple of tube of lubricant and hurriedly went back home!

She was still wet. Then I did everything I could with ease and gentleness, but she was fighting. But when I got my shaft out, it happened too fast that I couldn't take pictures anymore because her fluid was gushing out of her! :flipoff2:

Then.... Alas!!! That is why she was wet! I made her do that! I broke the upper lip of the inner seal three weeks ago upon install! :censor:

I was relieved and happy that I've helped her with her problem! She is now happy as well.

Wet, wild and dirty! That was my weekend folks:cheers::beer:

I had planned on starting my knuckle rebuild today, but I can't even look at the underside of my cruiser now:(

Finished unloading from last weeks epic 4 day rubicon trip where I took no pics because I left my phone on the back of my trailer at Loon lake! After three weeks strait of cruiser reconstruction after rollover (far from finished) is nice to take a break from it. I learned that it's possible, but hard to believe, that I could actually get tired of spending time with my triple locked mistress.

Fixed my wiper arms that came loose. (Yay, wipers work again)

Attempted my first fix at sanding, bondo, and painting on a old rusted scratch from the PO. Apparently hoodrats attempted to steal the LC badge and gouged a 6" flathead screwdriver scratch down the hatch. All was going well until the painting.... Guess I'll have to sand and paint again... Damn it.

However, I did add another sticker thanks to @beno

I think you need to go have a cold shower and a good hard look at yourself then apologise to your mistress.

I made some time this weekend to start cleaning all the electrical terminals in the engine bay and remove the starter for a clean up. During the week she got a whole set of new valve shims. Rear diff is leaking again so that will come out next weekend hopefully, no money for a locker but she will get all new bearings r&p and seals.
 
Picked up Stewie the couch potato today in the LX. Need to take one with him in it but this will do for now. He is an owner surender because they are expecting second baby and never home to walk him.

He sees what you did there.
 
Finally got around to installing some auxiliary lights in back...

Continued on my sub tank install. Tank straps done, dual filler done, pump mounted. She fits great, looking forward to nearly 500 mile range!

This is where I chose to mount the valve stem for my bags.

You went with a "T" so both bags get the same pressure, and you only need one valve stem? That's a great spot for the valve.

I helped my brother install a set of Firestone airbags in his '05 Tundra this weekend, they made a huge difference in ride quality that I wasn't expecting! Any difference you could notice on the 80?
 
Picked up some used TruckVault drawers. I was planning on building some drawers this fall, but couldn't build them for what I paid for these. My initial impression is they are well made, but they use casters and rollers instead of sliders which isn't what I would use if building my own.
