Bolted in the rear seat - 2 new seat belts...
Topped off the tranny, transfer case, and axels with 90 weight...
Got the texas inspection, and plates!

Officialy a texan! Woo hoooo!
 
bought a "new" truck :-) couldn't resist, 83 fj40 2F, always wanted a gasser...most of cruisers are diesel here so it's fun to have a gasser for a change, the power is amazing, love it! a couple of rust spot to remove, transfer case needs rebuilding but for the rest ok...

100% powder coated.
 
I LIKE, powdercoat would take a lot of work
 
Installed ram assist, and a line lock


Broke my rear dana 60 30sp hub, bent the heck out of my rear passenger side shackle, bent my steering arm. Blew a bead on the Rubithon, sheared my rear spring center pin as well.
Upgrades for them all......
 
Fixed an annoying vibration I had at > 40 mph so I took it for a spin on the freeway down to Corpus and got rid of the Kia rental.
Now it's the official daily driver for me and my family... :hillbilly:

Got my new stainless steel 18" steering wheel in the mail - already planning the mount (yes, it is from a sail boat!) power steering the old fasioned way :flipoff2: .
 
Pulled fenders back out porta powered firewall forward,started pulling radiator& oh yeah flipped er overbackwards!
 
Got everything ready for the blasting shop today. Delivering it Monday or Tuesday I hope. Picked up my TBI for the 350 Thursday and started the front bumper build.

The money can't be printed up fat enough. It's like a hooker on nickel night.
