For the love of Christmas someone please start a Cowdogs 'n 80s thread!

I thought that red clay looked familiar. So, where were you and how did you get out?

Hardin Bridge Trail rd near Sutalee..Dan from GXOR gave me a tug once I put out a distress call to a local 4runner group I hang with

The key is to pressure wash it immediately, and then every day of your life afterwards. At some point it comes off right? Right guys?

Several friends were running 100 miles through/around town over the weekend. Me and a few others supported them every few miles, mostly refueling them and tending to their needs before they'd head out for the next section. The Land Cruiser got a workout being unloaded and reloaded with gear and supplies 15 times in 24 hours. It was great.

They were in a race of some sort?

Less formal than that. No numbers, results, or competition. Just 7 friends running 100 miles at vaguely the same pace.

Oh, so running some sort of package for a local cartel then. I get it. No more questions.

Got some professional help on getting the suspension sorted out. Found my driveline noise. Grabbed up a used shaft from a local member.

Bump stops fixed after some MUD member input and knowhow

Arms ground down a bit for clearance. No more rattles and noise.

Got to drive it for 3 days and then started noticing coolant temp swings and no heat. Consult with Beno and came to this conclusion.

Want to try and make it wheeling once or twice yet this year, so figured I would try the Blue Devil sealant. Followed all the directions and the idle smoothed out and coolant stayed stable, heat worked too. Then noticed a puddle that became a geyser ... water pump gasket quit.

The brown is from the PO that may have put in Bar's Sealant. I've been chasing it out of the cooling system for months. Now just waiting on parts and hoping it runs when I put it back together or it's down for the winter and the head is coming off.

Very few vehicles in existence can survive neglect as well as a Land Cruiser.

It's sad to see all the trash left out in the desert. I live on the utah/arizona border and we have the exact same problem on both sides. There are piles of trash everywhere getting shot up. But, I don't think the problem is to blame the shooting community. At least in my area 90 percent of the trash on public land was dumped there by people without legal identification that can't legally use the landfill. Also there are loads of landscaping trash dumped with all the other trash. It is a problem of lazy low life contractors and landscapers dumping trash on public land instead of paying to use a landfill. Then the shooters take advantage of the trash and use it as targets. Just my .02 cents

We see some dumped trash, but overall its a small percentage and most likely home owner. The dump is on the way to these sites, so much closer. As far as shooting it goes, the rule is, you shoot it, you own it. You brought it or not, if you shoot it and leave it, you get a littering ticket.

Would you guys stop with the argumentative chat so we lousy mods don’t have to delete a bunch of posts? Cheers.

This weekend my son and I took our "new" 1997 on a good 400 miles shake down to Duluth MN for deer hunting. Worked great, brought home dinner!
