A little before and after is always nice. This came out way better than expected.

Sweet

Made brake lines for the first time. Hopefully they survive the leak test.

We drove to a waterfall just outside of Bogota. Lots of twisties , turns, low and high elevation. The Land Cruiser ran flawlessly. We had a great lunch (menu del dia) at a roadside restaurant. The weather held up well, as we were expected to get rain.

Taught my 10yr old to drive for the first time. The vehicle of choice was a no brainer.

Memories she'll cherish. Learning to drive with Dad.

Got my rear license plate lights working and sold my original seats and starter since the upgrade. Small wins, but moving forward.

I took the transmission down. I forgot/didn’t understood change the input axle seal when everything was open. That chinese cheap motocross bike lift was a big help. So tight to get off, maybe easier with the bellhousing? 3B and H41 here.

What brand of jack stands are those? Might have to remove my transmission as well.

Started digging into the second rust repair spot, midpoint of the rocker, above the running board. Had a little surprise when I unbolted the running board bolts and it fell off! I hadn’t undone the carriage bolt that holds it to the stay that extends out from the frame.

Cushion was still attached, along with the bolt.

Typical. I was planning to change the running board out, but I’ve got a lot of irons in the fire at the moment. So I got a big washer and slipped it behind the oversized hole, welded it in and re-slotted the track

Now I can get back on track.

Second rust repair finished.
