Have you ever taken a good look at a delivery driver? The idea of giving them access to my house or vehicle is pure nightmare fuel.

Oh make no mistake, I cringe when I give my keys to my wife. I can't fathom why I'd want to turn my rig into a mailboxes etc mobile hotspot, let alone paint bigger steal my crap target on it.

nope.

An Iphone and OBDII is as about as much tech as I desire it a car or truck.

Decided to tackle the horror that is roof rack removal. Thankfully the rust wasn't terrible just some pitting. Filling with jb weld steel stick and going to hit it with the spray can until I monster line it.
 
Finished up slapping a bunch of shat on from a plethora of vendors... Took my time gathering and slowly installing. One man show here.
Slinky 75mm F/R.
Kings: Finned Resi's and Comp Adjusters (Resi's and Adj kind of a waste of $, but oh well)
King Bumps in the front. King Steering Stabilizemizinger
Slee ShortBus w/ Warn M8000, Synthetic, Factor 55 ELink
Adj UCAs / Panhards, OME Tie and Drag.
WKO Sliders
Labs rear: No Swingout
315 Toyo M/Ts
Some SLEE bits and pieces.
Some small @NLXTACY stuffs (this dude is quality service)

Here's a super sad pic of it sitting on the asphalt.

Pretty cool, it looks well put together. Engine swap? The snorkel looks pretty far back for stock intake. I dig that people are using LC's for this stuff. But I kind of have to wonder with only a 112" wheelbase wouldn't a domestic 1 ton be a better choice....

It’s Maltec which is a German company. They do builds with race car focus. So MINIMAL but super high end materials. Cabin is sparse but updated. The entire camper is carbon fiber and weighs 86kg. With everything installed this truck is actually about 500 pounds LESS than when it started. The motor is stock 1HDT.
 
Installed leather PT Cruiser front seats based on the great video posted on Mud. However, the FJ80 (3FE) is just a bit different. Just like everything else described on the "80" series forum. Not a big difference and the video was still a big help. Actually a bit easier since the 92's seat belt receivers are bolted to the floor and not the seats.

Seats are very comfortable. They sit about 1 inch higher than the LC seats even with the power elevator all the way down. Also gained about 2 inches of legroom and the arm rest.
