1962 fj40, green, we think a repaint of the original color ige/nuclearlemon been into all landcruisers since mid 80s, have had a bunch, this one only a week so far 51k+ none...that's why i love it...p.o. unbutchered hopefully have it on the road in time for st pattys day parade, other than...

replied to your pm too, originally used 1x2 rectangular stock, but it wasn't in the cards to make them wide enough to really support the maggi, plus the maggi ubolts aren't quite wide enough to bolt on. i will be going to 1x1 stock this summer sometime and welding nuts into the stock so i don't...

the latest project tucked away in the garage. i don't need another project, i still have one pig i have to cut the front suspension off of and redo and finish the engine swap, another pig that needs body work and keeping the 80 in good shape is getting to be a full time job, don't even mention...

i'm not happy with the height on the yakima a1s that i've got now. i need figure out a way to make my gamviti mounts work with longer rectangular stock for my maggi as the rtt is much closer to the roof than with the yakimas. not the best pics, but if you look close, you can see the...

good luck chasing your issues. i'm in a bit of the same boat. rig was fine before it sat for seven months, now in less than a week both batteries are dead. i had fixed a parasitic draw before hand and the draw was under .50 and testing today confirms it still is. are the batteries agms...

new belgium has some great beers. i miss them. plus available in camping friendly cans. :( don't just boycott. send them a note...let them know why you're boycotting and that you are hounding all your friends, family, coworkers, etc not to purchase their products. i hit a bunch of their...

you can probably tell, i'm also a fan of the aussies. have e lockers in the 80, but ran aussies in the blue pig, the 60 and the 40. the 40 had potential to be scary being a short wheel base, but it really didn't see snow/ice driving except snow runs and i never had an issue. the 60 was a...

a year and a half later, i am still convinced maggi is the way to go. now, i've convinced my other half too. he suggested that "just in case", we mount it on the 80 again before heading out on a, hopefully one day, 800 mi road trip. at 6', he still thinks the medium is fairly comfortable. i...

crapshoot probably, but want one and have no issues with second hand if it involves keeping a little money here for more vehicle mods ;) if not, i'll probably order one after xmas. in denver area.

that's actually an awesome price! jump on it and get wheeling!

don't look for full. look for bits here and there.

in my 80, i run the yeasu 7800, i also have 5xr that i found used on craigslist for $150 with a bunch of accessories. if you don't have to have dual band and money's an issue, look into a 2800 mobile and a small handheld.

not light bars, but i run all led lights from truck-lite. love them. and for interior lighting, i added the model 33 1" lights. awesome bright

well, i'm glad you think everyone should enjoy ohv's in an off road park. let me know when you find a park with enough land to "expedition" in. remember, this sight is for those of us that enjoy four wheeling, hiking, biking, two wheeling for days with no contact. you will never get that in a...

i refuse to support companies that pretend to support the outdoors while trying to shut down a lot of recreationalists. rei, patagonia, teva, camelback...they all are off my list.

dammit....i need to stop seeing these threads!!! haven't even gotten my green pig running and for the last four years i've toyed with putting it on my 80 frame. got rid of my 60 because i had too many rigs, now i'm remembering how nice they were. stop this now....dammit. my mind can't...

hold off on the lift as long as you can...the rig's down anyways. if you look for it, it won't be there, but when you're not looking, you will score.

i've done the air down thing, but not drastically...even going to 25psi makes a huge difference in ride. but as mentioned, it rattles things loose. watch for control arm bolts and brake pad pins to come loose, along with other things. everytime you stop, do a cursory glance to make sure...

solve all your problems...get a maggiolina...it takes up the entire roof and there's no room for more stuff :sombrero:

sounds like the arbs weren't setup correctly. were they new or older oring versions? the old orings were problematic. pighead and i both have arbs in pigs and they've been flawless (ok, well mine was flawless years ago before i downed that rig). i have e lockers in my 80 and have had to...
