the lift kit i had installed by Huberts Automotive in West Salem. I did the bumper by myself. That was interesting, but not bad assisted with a floor jack, had to order a couple longer bolts than the kit came with. I did the fog lights on the bumper myself but had the Hella lights wired by an audio sound company in La Crosse.

That is an awesome 80 series. Looks great.I'm in as well. My basket case 80 is slowly getting to the point where I'll let others see it
I took it for a trip up to the up for trail running and camping last fall. It did great.
Here is a small outing my son and I did at the WI river river.
And a solid 2 hr of getting unstuck in MI UP.

Looking forward to meeting some WI LC fans.

I'm finally back in the cruiser family after 3 years of Audi unreliability. I just picked this up out of CO and am looking forward to building it up. It's gonna be my daily for years so I cant go full off-road spec.

I just saw this parked in a driveway across from an apartment my wife lived in last winter when we were first moving the other day. Really cool truck. We have a white lx570. I'd love to add the bumper and snorkel but she won't let me. I get to do that stuff to my 98 LC.
Haha. It is. Sticker is rocking on the side window.
Won't! Those are spiffy!
KO2 are great in our climate. Had them on my 100 and just put them on my truck.
When the 80 needs tires I'll get them on it as well.
Looks great!

paging @Muskyfever I saw your post about working in Madison and owning a 40 and a 100. Would be great to meet another local Cruiser head!
There is a cars and coffee meetup every Sunday morning at Barriques in Fitchburg practically year-round.
Mostly sports cars, but a little bit of everything shows up. Would be fun to roll in with a group of 4x4s

I bought another 100 last year. It took a lot of work to get that one to the condition I wanted her to be in. Now I must sell one:
I didnt know this was yours! I drove by it last week but didnt have time to stop.
Alright so @Attn2Detail and I ran the “7 Hour Plane Crash Trail” the past two days. We weren’t exactly sure what to expect and had limited time so we started a little north of the trailhead, off of Hwy 70 near Alvin, WI. Where we started was extremely muddy to the point that he got his truck stuck and we had to snatch him out lol. It was impassable without at least one winch and possibly more. No way these guys in stock vehicles aka the jeep renegade guy could have done this portion. So we back tracked and went a little north. The trail is a good combination of technical off-roading and gravel, sand, and dirt roads. Some of it is very bumpy and we did have to use a saw a few times. We skipped a portion of it near Houghton, MI and north so that we could get to High Rock Point before it was too dark. There are YouTube video of high rock point and it is amazing. That’s where we camped. Beware, from the end of the highway there is a logging road about 10 miles long to get to the point, and about 3 miles of it you cannot go any faster than 5mph due to ruts and rocks. Takes at least 45 mins. Totally worth it though. In the morning we went back south and to the town called Gay on the southern portion of the peninsula. There is a huge “beach” there that is leftover sediment from the copper miners. It’s basically dunes and it’s awesome. We then drove to Porcupine Mountains via roadways and went to the top of those. Pretty cool… feels like the smokies if you’ve ever been there. From there we drove to Eagle River for dinner then to Essentially where we started the trail and we finished the beginning portion of the trail that we initially skipped, doing it backwards. This was pretty smooth trail but was extremely fun.
All in all, totally do-able In two days but 3 would be awesome. We had to cut short due to the storms last night. Guys have said they did this On stock vehicles and we think this is a lie and/or they skipped portions or busted their sh**
Tires and suspension seem necessary.
Can’t wait to run it again!!
