A little stream maintenance. Put the wench to work and pulled a box elder out of the creek.

It had no problem yanking that sucker up and out of there. I'd say it's a decent wench....
Next to install, "new" bib, replacing rusted out original. Note that this is from an older model, with early-style headlight modules. Some cutting, drilling and rivet-nuts in order to accept '73 and later headlight assemblies:
Cruiser porn, ordered and stashed away probably 15 - 20 years ago...
Perfect fit!
looking like a truck again..
Even more Cruiser porn: NOS Bezel, fresh from the box (still needs cygnus white paint):

Fixed a rattle.
Only 999 more to go.
brilliant!
Damn - I have so many rattles I don't even know where they're coming from...I think I'd have a better chance identifying the parts that don't rattle...

I actually have mine pretty rattle free, there are a few squeaks from the drivers side door I can't track down and some racket from the rear hatch area I haven't been able to pinpoint. Aside from that it's the roar of the mighty 2F and 33's that is deafening.
I've said it before and I will say it again...FJ40's will not run with out at least one rattle.
Been buried in spring chores, but have fired the 40 up a couple of times for a short spin.
Meanwhile, I've been helping a buddy out in my shop, and had a great visit from my neighbor, Gordon. I love hearing his stories about growing up farming in IL, his old tractors, and learning more about the history or our small town in western MA. Honestly, I just love when he swings by when I'm in the shop and we just shoot the sh*t back and forth.

FJ60 Power Steering mod underway.
Getting close to done with my fj60 power steering conversion.
This isn’t what I’ve done - but it’s what I’ll be doing. Received a much anticipated box from @white-knuckleoffroad today. Going to see if I can find some time to get these installed before my first attempt at wheeling the 40 next weekend.
