I did knuckles. Glad I did. Looks like the PO may have never been in there. The drivers side had about a 1/4 full of grease which was really runny. The passenger side was full of diff fluid, nasty green liquid, not much of it either. Glad the fac page has the birf rebuild info, came in handy. Next is springs and new brake line, while I have the wheels off and truck on stands. Was quite a bit of work cleaning all the parts but well worth it. I assume I saved a big chunk of change on this. Great forum!!!

A/C sprung another leak so I had that repaired. While my mechanic was in there, I had him swap out radiator hoses and do a coolant flush. I don't think the PO had ever done that. Took it out today and put on about 190 miles. Took the wife and boys hiking, train-spotting and geocaching up in Cajon Pass and Wrightwood, CA.
@Badger11 - Gorgeous photo with the fall foliage.
I replaced the door weatherstripping on the 4 side doors with new OEM. Greatly reduced the wind noise, which was one of my pet peeves after selling the Tundra when I bought my 80. Easy project (though my neighbor broke one of my door checks when he tried to close the door while the check was disconnected to allow me to clear the weatherstripping). I got the weatherstripping from one of our friendly MUD vendors.
Sea foamed the intake. No noticeable change.
Replaced one of the rear side marker lights too...some of the remaining PO damage.
Cheers, J

Lol well I found out where my radiator is leaking from... Bottom center feels like the seam came apart ... Time to yank it out get a new one
Is that wrap inside or out? You got a link to more pics of your storage setup?
The wrap is on the outside, that is why you want the laminated type so dirt doesnt get in the little holes.
Here is the link to my drawer system complete with plans.

Very nice. I've been thinking of doing that myself. My headlights are brighter than my IPF's. would be nice to have some off road lights brighter than my head lights.
Decided a little love on our 1994 FZJ80 shop truck was needed.

Nothing like having your own ( or at least the place your can use) shop to have fun
