Do you have a sealer to recommend?

I think it depends on what you are doing, IE what level. Tub re-hab etc etc? 3M has good seam sealer for gutters and panels. My flex seal was more of a preventative measure at this point. Down the road, if I were to do a full on re-hab, I'd use a product like the 3M seam sealer...
 
Serious meats on those rims................
 
@Racer65 nice pics of the twins!!
 
Finally got around to making up the pto shaft for my FJ45. The winch gear is out of a 60 series so I cut the three piece shaft down to two.

Finished building the body rotisserie for the body, mounted the body and started sanding. Photos to follow tomorrow.
 
I Had a rainy day and decided to make a project that I started thinking about a while ago. I have never liked the idea of separate battery box's but I dont want to modify the electrical system in my troop carrier so I think this is a good option.

70AH AGM Deep Cycle Battery, in Fully sealed hard case. 2 Cigg plugs, 2 USB power plugs and Anderson plug. A battery isolator, cuts power to everything.

On the side of the battery are a variety of cables that plug into the Anderson, one with a cigg end, and another with jumper ends for charging the battery and an Anderson - Anderson extender.

I managed to put it all together for a little over $250 AUS.







 
I got tired of just listening to the wind, so I decided to install a stereo in my tuffy console. For the speakers I originally had them velcroed to the top of my confer box. I wanted to have access to the box without having the speakers in the way though. I thought I would try a different approach and mounted the pioneer TW150 boxes to the back of the seats using metal strap without drilling any holes. If I don't like them then no damage done. The only downside is they are rear facing so that might make them a lot harder to hear with the top off.

The 40's "new" engine is ready to come off the stand and be mated to the SM465! Personally, I think she looks pretty good. I can’t wait to see it surrounded by Smurf Blue.

Also for your listening enjoyment, here is a link to the engine running before it was sold by the previous owner:

Looks bad ass!

I can't play the video because I'm not on Facebook... Does it have a big cam in it (lopey idle)?
