Safety first. Was overdue for a fire extinguisher.
What have you done to your Land Cruiser this week?

I like the international orange corba? weave handle. I just got some 750 cord in orange and woodland cammo. A rig cannot have too much paracord unless you go knots.

That's good price.
Those will earn you a “duck” wherever you park.
Is that a harbor freight one?
I’ve been eyeing that one. Glad to know it works.
Very well- even took off epoxy primer.
Haha beat me to it
Yeah, that's what is called Gifford Hill pipe. Steel encased with concrete pressure water pipe.
We do it nice, cause we did it twice.
Added some bling for the rear wheels... well, for one of them anyway. Ordered one to make sure it would fit. Since it does, the other one and the spare can get their very own center cap. Couldn't find the correct chrome with red paint, so these will have to do for now. (eBay, Toyota part #42603-60053, metal)
Is that a powder coated 60 series wheel? It looks great!
Regarding the rivet removal: I found taking about a 3 foot length of steel rod about 1/2" to 5/8" thick with a point on one end pounded into the rivet shaft (after head ground off) pushes the rivet out nicely. The weight of the rod/bar does the work when pounded by a good sized one handed sledge hammer. The crew that put in my driveway left a couple of such rods that were used to support the concrete forms during the pours.
Don't forget PowerTrax.
I made a hood rest out of delron, with high magnetic strips on one side and 1/4" rubber on the other. Just stick on the windshield frame over window and lean hood on it. When done, pull hood rest off and stick inside '40, say under the seat. I think online warehouse that I bought the super thick high magnetic tape from was McMaster-Carr. I bought 10 feet of it and it's mostly gone now.
I went to pickup my new bumper from Toyota. I do love shiny new parts.
For anyone who doesn't know, new bumpers are still available from Toyota either online or shipped to your local dealer. Part is 52111-60030. My dealer charged $210.
As a tip. Order this part from your dealer and go and pick it up. Dont have someone ship this item to you. There is a good chance it will get damaged in transit. If you get it from the dealer you can check it out before you take possession and there are no shipping charges.
