What Did You Do with Your 80 This Weekend? (136 Viewers)

What I figured, but you never know. You should have crashed their party.

 

[mrsleeve]

started my drawer/rear storage set up.... Hit a minor design snag, with compatibility of folding the top half of the 2ed row seats but on well I am going to live with it not going to redo all that work.

Nah, just being facetious. I mentioned in the hundred forum a while back that I might swing by and was told they'd ignore me. I know they were kidding so I figured I'd throw it back at them a little.

They would of been serious
Only take one dirty old 80 to make a bunch of hundies look average at best offroad

Added some stuff to the 80

 

[ERG80]

Any details on the latches you used? seems to be non-standard for 4x4L dual swingout..

I welded on some tabs and added nylon pads so the arms are resting on them when closed. The tabs also function as a step. I can lock the arms in place with hitch pins.

 

[jtwopark]

Installed! Really nice feel to them!

 

[jtwopark]

Installed bump stops and tested them thoroughly!

While I may have had the coolest 80 in Silverton (because I was the only 80 in Silverton), I did NOT have the coolest Land Cruiser. That title belonged to this 55 three View attachment 1300164 View attachment 1300165 spots down from me

FJ55s will always win with the coolness.

This is true. Mine was a rusted out piece of crap and I still miss it every day. Coolest Land Cruiser ever.

Ugh yeah so sad.

Do you have King Shocks on all four corners? If so - how do they ride on and off road?

 

[TRAIL TAILOR]

Ugh yeah so sad.

Piggies are the best. Wish I never gave up my '74 I've been trying for 3 years to buy a Late '79 with factory AC, power steering and disc brakes from a guy... It just keeps sitting in a field crying for some love.

Pup even loved it!

I will. In time. In time.

 

[jcardona1]

Did somebody say piggies?

 

[jtwopark]

Which one are you asking about? I have a few trucks with different set up king shocks! They ride from Cadillac boat ride up to super stiff until you start hitting big bumps and they smooth them out to nothing! Yes I do have KING shocks on all four corners with hydraulic bump stops!

The beauty of these custom shocks are that you can valve them and set them up however you seem fit.

Next up is double throwdowns I want to try but have to save up a few mo the to do so.

Started welding together 4X4 Labs 80 rear storage

Just keep buying donors until you have enough parts and are happy with one! HA!
