What Did You Do with Your 80 This Weekend? (79 Viewers)

[DannyG]

Today I fixed drivers side shaky mirror and both power seats..

Last night, I built a bracket to hold my battery down. PO had used a rubber tie down strap. Found a set of J hook bolts at Autozone and a piece angle aluminum at Lowe’s.

Brought a cheap as ass fzj80 and instantly engaged the lockers for their first ever time. Factory VX so ice cooler and lots of other goodies. Am I in the 80 club now?

How wild is that? Seeing those near perfect cubes in the stone. That's awesome.

I waited seven years for the magic dial.

In the meantime, I learned how to pick lines--I had a ton of fun without the lockers--I still traversed deserts, canyons, mountains, beaches, rivers, iced roads, blizzards, hail storms, haboobs, mud trails and only one time did I ever get stuck (giant mud bog, used my winch).

I am eternally grateful to @inkpot , @richardlillard1 and Travis? for all the work, here's a little of what they did:

1. Wiring 2. removed axles 3. rebuilt axles 4. installed 4.88's 5. installed rebuilt axles (locked) 6. new brakes 7. rebuilt fan clutch 8. etc., etc.

Am I looking forward to using the lockers? Hell yes!

Where's my cowboy hat?

Now you can do it in half the time. Anyone who says they can go everywhere without lockers doesn’t try to go everywhere. I use mine to keep the drama to a minimum.

"Solo" doesn't usually include an extra hairy arm...

Ordered mine this weekend

Another update: first warm day we’ve had in awhile. 80 degrees. AC on both City and Highway, temps never reached above 183* at noon. Hopefully this helps Joey sell more blue hubs or, more to experiment with theirs View attachment 2222091

Welcome to the club!!

 

[Gunner56]

Updated the Lexus aerodynamics. Hole lot of holes! Glad I did it though, the weather strip was shot and letting water get trapped in the rockers. Also I have 2 mismatched pieces, and I think it looks pretty damn good! Or will...hopefully

 

[thegogglesdonothing]

Did some soul searching and also found this quite perfect Baja camp spot.

 

[Outsane]

Fixed the shaky mirrors with the parts from Outsane since both tabs were broken off of both mirrors. If you are ever in doubt, holy cow these things are an awesome fix to that! Now it only let me discover that my DS mirror is now floppy, just never stops.

Thanks for the shout out!!
