It looks like your body mounts are sagging. Cant say for sure, but the box would fit better if the fie wall mounts were some taller.

maybe, I'll look at that.
Sold (pending funds) my '69 FJ40. Crying but I JUST could NOT drive it with knee problems. LOVE my 5th Gen 4Runner, though!
Recovered the seats in Coral colored material from Cruiser Corps. I added 1” of foam to the stock seat foam. Fitment was challenging. Also found this gem for a shifter knob in my boxes of random stuff.

Two out of three torn down. Broke the chinesium engine hoist. #6 and the best frame up on horses to scrub, coroseal, and paint. I will get it to roller status before I rent a 4 ton hoist to set the engine. Then on to the third. Junk into a runner.
The mounds overgrown with cholla cactus is an ancient pueblo. The road is literally paved in pottery sherd.
The 40 took a beating getting all the way out to the canyon. Although the road is relatively easy, I smashed a small basalt boulder into my exhaust pipe. The front wheel must have dislodged it from the roadbed, so I wasn't aware that I needed to avoid it. So, it was damaged, but not too bad, it is perfectly functional.

Great views of White Rock Canyon from the side not often visited. The first photo shows most of Bandelier National Monument and the Dome Wilderness - St. Peter's Dome (highest summit) and Boundary Peak (pointed summit to its right) are southwest of the national monument boundary. The second photo shows Buckman Mesa in the far distance, beyond White Rock Overlook. The opening scene of the 1985 movie Silverado includes a great panorama from the overlook.

Bit the bullet today and ordered a Dakota Digital instrument cluster. (Ouch)
Might as well order a Holley Sniper kit.
Thought I was gonna buy a new toy, but someone beat me to it.
Probably better off, it needs a ton of work. That being said I was pretty excited for the challenge.
Cruiser still needs finishing touches, so it probably for the best. Took my kid out for a spin and took some foliage pics.
Nothing like the falls I grew up in the northeast, but we relish the little bit of color we get here. Couple more days and it’ll be gone.

Prep work for the new radiator is underway. Shroud and radiator support have been sandblasted and will be powder coated tomorrow. The frame was stripped underneath and chassis saver was applied with a follow-on topcoat. OEM radiator and other goodies coming from Vescovo Toyota of Las Cruces

Finally took apart my ambulance door lock assembly to tighten up the loose handle. As is tradition I immediately lost the tiny spring and spent most of the time looking for it
Heading out to Rush Springs Ranch for the TAC fall crawl.
Installed some tunes. 2 Rockford Fosgate 6.5” wake tower speakers and a Kicker 8” marine subwoofer powered by a Rockford Fosgate marine amp.

Got a decent load of firewood from the Eastern Sierra…Lodgepole pine. Going back up tomorrow for one more load.
