What Did You Do with Your 80 This Weekend? (39 Viewers)

No pictures. Had to put a tire plug in a completely flat tire (less than 1k miles on them) in the Tractor Supply parking lot because I don't have a full-size spare yet. Then the D light went out again on the drive home

Stabbed a new powertrain in the ol' FJ80.
It was a surprisingly tight fit.

You should have just rammed it and watched it shatter and splinter under the sheer force and strength of that magnificent 80 series.....

Haha, JK. Speaking from experience I am sure that would not be a good idea compared to the winch.

While camping last weekend I was annoyed at the passenger door lights being on with the hatch open. Couldn't figure out what to do out there so I researched MUD when I got back. Today I decided to wire in the switch to take care of it. Once I got everything apart I realized that I'll never want those lights on when the hatch is open. Why cut up my wiring and hack my panel when I can just disconnect the switch? Done and done.

I carry my chainsaw with me just for this issue. Sometimes it is too big to winch.

No, since the truck was built before 1FZ was in production, the firewall was crowded with misplaced frt & rr heater hoses, heater valve, AC line, etc.
