What did you get your 80 for Christmas?

3.11:1 sumo gears and a 3" lift (time to retire the saggy OME lift).

Front axle rebuild parts and tune-up/valve cover gasket for the daily driver, motor mounts and sending unit adapters from @cruisermatt for my ls swap and hopefully a new found motivation to get this thing finished
 
These didn’t survive under the tree, they escaped and found their way under the front axle today.

Ordered myself... Oops the 80 the Ruff Stuff Toe alignment brackets. So look for a post later this weekend about me doing the toe adjustment on my 80. Hopefully it will help with the funky tire wear.

A 75L dual zone fridge.
Whilst the Waeco 40l I have still works fine for when I go camping solo it just wasnt big enough for the camping trips we do as a family and juggling food & drinks in & out of it was starting to get to me.
Having the ability to run as a fridge & freezer at the same time I think will be great, maybe not for the waistline though.....

I got mine a new to me OEM VAF, a new heater/AC blower motor, wiring harness, and resistor, some new rubber window wipers that go on the outside of the door (I don’t know their proper name), and fresh fluid in the diffs after 500 miles on the new lockers. Land Cruiser Specialists in Austin did the work. The truck runs great. I can’t say enough good things about my experiences with them.
I just decided to tackle my windows. Any chance the repairs made any difference? I decided to go all out with one of my windows to see what would happen. New liners, wipers, brand new OEM motor assembly and new Switch Doctor Switches. Cleaned contacts and removed the entire assembly from the door and greased it before reinstalling. Still, with a complete new window operating mechanism, I am not impressed with the performance. I am trying to find other answers but I wanted to know if you had a good experience or not with just the liner?
