Swapped Bilsteins for the 10 year old OME’s this evening, much smoother on the road. We will see on dirt.

Is there a write up on using the BJ75 rod and rod end a BJ42 TRE? What’s the total length?

I’m gathering what I need to convert to P/S with a Scout II Saginaw box which will need almost exactly the same rod. I’d prefer to use parts that can be ordered over custom fabricated parts.

Just starting to feel better coming off of Coronavirus....

Managed to get a couple stickers stuck, and did some cleaning on the 64.

[cruiserboy14]

Got a new high vis sticker thanks to a co worker, and tinkered in the engine bay.. it hard to do to much in the Arizona heat...

 

[Trigger6]

A productive weekend... 1) Replaced the leaking manifold gasket (small exhaust leak on the #1 cylinder exhaust where the gasket had cracked on the outer edge... replaced using OEM ‘yota gasket). 2) Replaced the weatherstripping on all 4 doors.

Took the wife for a drive, “It doesnt sound like a rattle trap anymore...”. But now I’m getting worried that she’s going to want to drive it all the time...

Accomplished so much today. See “ Iron Yak“ thread. Then took the Iron Yak for a victory lap.. Felt great to be behind the wheel again.

I should add that SMGs hood pins are AWESOME
