What have you done to your Land Cruiser this week?

[JohnnyC]

I may have a spare too if it’s from a mini truck/4runner.

Yeah the seat back is from when my oldest son who’s now 22 used to sit behind my seat in a conferr bench and he used to push his feet on it … hard lol I thought just one side was broke … nope lil bugger used to do some damage … I’m going to save for procar seats as dumb as it sounds I like that I was able to fix his damage #makingmemories lol

The pump is a mini… the pump itself is fine it’s the seal between the reservoir and pump… it was a remote reservoir that we mounted on top so the seal between is kind of wonky

Thanks.
The suspension I chose to do something quite different. Fronts are based on taller jdm take off 70 series springs. Rear I did a low soa with 60/70 based rear springs. Tires are 33s (285/75/16 on gm wheels). Flex is reasonably balanced front and rear. I’m almost happy with it. Need different rear shocks and might add one more leaf to the rear pack

: Builds a 40 with random parts to great configuration. Drives days 40 from Canada land to the Rubicon. Wheels on 33s. Drives home. Camping along the way.

You my internet friend have won for today. I owe you a beverage of choice. As long as it’s next to a campfire

Absolutely perfect picture! These kids will always have that to look back on as they get older.

 

[Oregon FJ40]

Got a new swaybar setup installed and took the rig for a drive. Almost completely eliminated the body roll I had. Also got the new drip rail fitted and tacked together.

What are the part numbers? When I looked into it did not seem to have an application for a 40. I did high steering arms but not SOA on my build.

Been still going at it on the little needed things… jb welded the upper radiator support (good for a few more years lol

Fixed the seal on the PS pump reservoir cleaned the pulley while I was at it

And replaced my seat bottom with a spare from @JKIII FJ40 … found the lower support bar in seat back broken welds on both sides… fixed that but in the process melted part of the pleather lol I’m one day most likely going to get the procar seats … they nice on the bum bum

Thanks again @JKIII FJ40 good karma on you !!!

I just had to replace my ps pump. The seal was leaking behind the pulley and I didn't know what model vehicle it came from and could not get a seal to match it. I bought a new 4runner pump and I am currently fabricating a different bracket to mount it.

Is that the 4bt, how’s it going.

I thought the radiator would be a quick job. View attachment 4168376View attachment 4168377Went to buy a radiator on marketplace and scored this rebuilt heater box and a set of 2H ac mounts. Turned into an expensive trip!

That’s so clean. Is that the 4bt. How’s it driving. I read the build thread but no updates for a while

Checked fluids all the way around, added some gear oil to both diffs.

Greased the u joints.

Sprayed some carb cleaner in the carb to clean out some gunk.

Loaded some camping and fishing gear in it.

Time for some fun.
