Belmetric.com also carries the ultra fine thread bolts that are needed. I bought ones with flange heads and used beville spring lock washers.

I built a roof rack to replace the rack that was destroyed in the tragic "Drive Thru Incident of 2017". I'll add a pic once I get it on the 80.

On way back from Lake Tahoe and stopped at Crowley Lake for gas. What’s funny is I got THE best mileage I think I’ve ever gotten from my truck. Unscrewed the gas cap and let it vent out. I could see from the shadow all the fumes spilling out of the fuel neck. Maybe three seconds of audible venting. Put the fuel nozzle in and it clicked at about $1. Then it clicked at around $2. What the fawk?! Then it started filling fine.
The fuel nozzle clicked because it was done. Pulled out the nozzle and then fuel starts pouring down the Quarter Panel from the outside and inside. I peer into the fuel inlet and the gas is actually not only overfilled to the very top of the opening of the inlet, but it looks the fuel is getting pushed OUT of the tank!
Sooooo happy I have three fire extinguishers JUST in case!!

Headed up to NH to get the underside ready for winter w/ my now annual oil undercoating.
On the way back I pulled over to take a pic of my latest milestone. I need to drive this thing more!

Has to be pressure related for it to push gas up and OUT
They use a "proprietary" petroleum product. Previously they used fluid film and didn't like the longevity of the lanolin product, odor or coverage. Their words, not mine.
263 S. Main St. Concord, NH https://nhoilundercoating.com/find-a-dealer/ There are other places around that use their products, I haven't investigated any others than the main store.
Total cost was $159 for their clear product, if you want the tinted black it is $179 or $189, can't recall. They are booked through the first week of January, but do take drop-in's. Total time for application is about 30-45 minutes. Family run operation as I can best tell, very friendly group who remembered me from last year.
That would have freaked me out. Any idea of what would cause that? Cold gas going into a warm(er) tank and expanding maybe?

Hmmm. Weird. My 80s are too busy drinking to waste any.
Not shocked that an LX450 is a spitter. Too classy...

Oh man i can't remember. I want to say I took 18" off the frame? Measured from the rear face of the factory crossmember.
I plan to put a sliding back window in it and close it up. I drove 2 hours with a bikini top pulled down over the opening. It was about 28* out and I was just a wearing a sweatshirt. With no carpet and the heat blasting it stays pretty toasty.
