Gave myself the ability to see how much boost I'm generating via an Isspro gauge. EGT to come.

I also extended the breather line for my front axle and continued procrastinating about the adjustment of my LSPV.
 
Wheeled my rig hard in Big Bear. Did gold mountain, Holcomb creek and heart break ridge. Decided to get sliders and an Aussie locker before I get my double swing out rear bumper.
 
Installed a Kenwood DDX 719 Head Unit with the optional IPod Controller.
Ran the IPod cable through the console.
Installed the microphone in the pocket above the radio.

Looks spiffy, how much did that deck cost you?
 
Finished installing new radiator, water pump, thermostat, hoses, PHH bypass, deleted the rear heater, changed back to Toyota red........

Got to be more but those are the highlights!

After replacing my radiator after 1yr got outta town with the kiddo. Kept cool. No leaks. Ran like a champ, or least as well as it has ;) SHe loves to camp in the back, which Im :cool: with, no setting up tent, etc :hillbilly:

I had a punch list, but it was just to darn hot to do anything.

Hopefully this weekend, considering a have a large box of OEM parts from Onur and a OME suspension kit from IPOR sitting in my house ready and waiting to be installed.
 
^^^ X2 ....blew everything off- except used the 80 to pick up this girl from her boyfriend's and drive to the boat for the weekend....
.....no pics that i can post....
 
Are those castor plate nuts tightened all the way?

They dont look like it

X2, it doesn't look like they are biting into the nylon locks.

Glad everything arrived Pete.

First off I should introduce myself as this is my first social post after lurking for a long time. Have a 96 White triple locked 80 all stock with 168k mi located in Tucson, AZ. Using the awesome info available on this forum I replaced PS pump OEM, all assoc hoses, pressure and reservoir line OEM return lines bulk, and rebuilt the PS gearbox with Gates seal kit. The Gates kit comes with all seals including input side. Rebuilding gearbox wasn't as scary as I thought it would be, glad I had impact wrench though!

Then after all the wrenching I drove up on Mt. Lemmon with the pup and ate lunch. Not a bad weekend!

Did a little work on the battery. Made some thingys, guess I'll call them bus bars. They were modeled after the Marinco version. I think I'll work on Rev A in the future. They turned out OK but could use some improvements.

Then I used the Gamiviti dash bezel to add a voltage gage to monitor the batteries. I moved my battery switch to the Gamiviti bezel to keep all the battery stuff together. I also made an attempt at labeling the switch, but that still needs a little work too. It's better than how it was labelled, ICE-OFF-COOL

Finished off the weekend by installing a fridge in my tent trailer to get ready for a trip to Yellowstone. The trailer had an icebox and I've been looking for a fridge to replace it. This one was in my price range at $5. It needed a thermostat which I borrowed from another MRFT60 that I have.
