Switched the wheels and tires from the fj40 to the 80 and viceversa, took the 80 to our mountain cabin...

That cabin is beautiful. I'd like to have something like that one day. Is that a lower level on the rear?

Hi Pat, the rear is a lower level, im currently building a fire pit and a bbq area.
 
Installed some Kragen HID's on the INTI.

finally after about 5 months of owning my fj80 I finally got it running correctly. It's not burning oil anymore, compression is good on all cylinders, there is no knock or ticking, injectors are all good, ignition system is all new, the transmission shifts correctly, birfields don't click anymore, axle seals don't leak, repacked bearings, PHH was replaced, rebuilt head, new head gasket, fixed wiring issues, hollowed out the melted cats and a few other things. It feels like a new vehicle. not bad for the $3500 I have invested in it including the price of the car. now I can work on cleaning and painting (I will probably go stock color). once that's done it's time for off road enhancements. I'm a happy guy.

Sounds like you gave it a serious base line. Congrats!
 
Hauled 27 cubic feet of mulch, 10 cubic feet of top soil, eight six foot 1x6's and built some raised planters. Also had the oil /fluid's changed and checked and some other maintenance stuff. Didn't get it "wet", though. Dang...
 
Traded my Arb front bull bumper for a Metal Tech tall stinger bumper. I also installed a 12,000 lb bad lands winch. Threw on a set of Vision X rock lights.
