Swap Meet
Great swap meet on Saturday. Thanks PMC for putting it on.
Uber modest Cabrito won huge prize swag and a Major Award the coveted "Coolest Cruiser Ever" :wings: well something like that.
Just to let you know there is a Landcruiser Swap meet in Petaluma, CA. tomorrow (Saturday) 7/10/2010. I believe it's put on by Pacific Mountian Cruisers, I've been there several times and it's a lot of fun.
Here is a hinge mount for the drivers side window hinge for a FJ40, I've also made the opposite one for the passenger side. I don't want to put any holes in the roof so this is as high as I can go. The windshield still folds down incase you need to cross the plains of Africa.
I found this at a Goodwill, then I remembered ther is one on my tractor that has held on for several years. Seems like a good storage container under the hood or on a frame rail.
New install
Thats good info, most of the radio use will be between vehicles while off road. The problem with roof mounting on the FJ40s is that the roof comes off frequently especially during the summer.
Antenna
Gary in Ohio, Well Yea you came highly recomended, the CGT-144 looks like the antenna for me. One of our cruisers already has the mounting hole on the side and I don't have to drill through the top.
If I remember correctly with CB antennas if you put the antenna on the left side of...
My buddy's FJ60. Last time he articulated the chassis the front driveline came apart, so were checking it here and fixing it.
Lookis like the FJ60 pooped out some FJ40s.
I just bought a couple of Yaesu FT2800 ham radios one for my FJ40 and the other for my FJ60. I have not bought antennas yet, would like to get some help here, also ideas on where to mount the antennas.
One other thing is where to take the test around Sacramento, CA.
Thanks
Gosh darn, I must sound like a Landcruiser swap meet pimp but here is another one.
