Cleaned up more of a po's sketchy wiring. Good thing was that all the electrical works so I don't have to trouble shoot that.

Dropped transmission and transfer case, removed clutch, pressure plate and flywheel. Removed oil pan. Loosened rear main cap and replaced the POS leaking rear main seal. Also took the opportunity to replace the oil pump, clutch, pressure plate. I'm tired.

Ole Beast got some fresh Procar Pro 90 seats.
HFS shackles, Bilsteins. Shakedown cruise on the Rim Road, FR300. Had the spare radiator patched.
Shot high build on the box. Yippee, more blocking to do now!

I needed to clean up my FJ40. So, at the end of April here in Georgia, I made it SNOW.....With my Snow Cannon, shot some Honeydew Snow Foam all over that sucker!

I put a set of those in my 75 and was absolutely pleased with the price, quality and the comfort, great price-point for what you get. Highly considered them again for my 78 but it's 95% original and decided to have the stock interior redone instead.

Did some "social distancing".
Pal'd around with some other dune beiges...
I got my carb cooling fan running again. All it took was cleaning up the thermo sensor. Now it gets good ground when it gets up to temperature.
I might have went overboard with the polishing wheel though.

Is either of those original color? Ruftoys looks very close to what mine should be originally.

I’m a big fan of the Chemical Guys products! Always do a good job and smell good too.

What polishing compound did you use to get that result?
A Dremel with a fine brass wire brush. Then Zephyr 40 with a buffing wheel.
After all that work to replace the rear main seal, even before I get it all back together, it starts to run like crap - no power off idle. Spent a few hours making sure the timing was correct. Sure enough, the TPS is bad. At least it isn't leaking oil on my driveway any more.

Finally built up courage for the Allbright conversion for the 8274. Lots of pre-fitting and with the old 4pin barrel it is tiiight, but works..
