What have you done to your Land Cruiser this week? (13 Viewers)

[Dizzy]

Does anyone know the formula for removing metal oxidization / mineral deposits from the internals of a carb? Maybe electrolysis, maybe a rust remover, how long, what temp, etc.?

I have used small ultrosonicator and Alconox 1832 Citranox

before..

after.. 1 hour...

.. My sonicator is too small to fit whole part.. I just loaded half and flip it after 1 hour.. and do another half...

Well, she's all shined up. A tad bit of wiring left for the fogs and brake lights. An exhaust and some mirrors and she's all done.

Looks excellent! If you don’t mind me asking how difficult was it installing the rear 4Plus dual swing out? Any mods necessary? I know they are heavy. Thanks.

Thanks! Honestly it was very straight forward but I did have to drill 8 1/2” holes in the rear. The only ones that line up are for the center receiver.

Once you mount and tighten the center section you mark the remaining holes, pull it off and drill them. The craftsmanship of it is outstanding and Dave was very helpful in every way. He also built me the front brush guard as they really don’t sell them anymore. Let me know if you have anymore questions.

What mount are you using for your sniper. I have mine stashed in the glove box.

Boring story coming up but in Colombia you have to remove non-original equipment for the annual roadworthiness test. For me that meant removing and replacing my fog lamps once per year. That's too much effort for me so I got the original Toyota ones.

Check out @GA Architect build thread, he has a super slick RAM mount fie the sniper screen.

Ram mount phone holder with a ball end. Glovebox isn't ideal as you need to be able to see the gauges.

Oh, yes.....lol

Beautiful rig. I look forward to following your journey but one word of caution... hang on to your wallet. Welcome
