Thanks! The fire was caused by my own stupidity and impatience. Cutting metal with a chop saw, with a loose spark deflector shield near flammable material. Guarantee you won't make the same mistake. I got rushed and careless - a bad combination

Thanks, was great meeting you guys too, love your 100 series! So the trip out to GSMTR was a great success. The truck did great. I had to pull winch twice but that was more driver error than the trucks fault! So many of you have requested a fuel economy check. Well I followed my buddy Joel out...

Any chance you could post up the dimensions and a couple of pics?

Looks awesome, great improvement from before!

Same here! We have to head back Thursday, as I have to work Friday. Hopefully I will see you there before I leave. May come back over the weekend if work doesnt call me in :sombrero: We are packed up and head out in about 20 mins ...

Managed to get the new dual jerry welded up and mounted. Still need to wire up the license plate light .... BEFORE AFTER:

Hey Fireflyer, Im going to try that on the way home from sparta this week, so i'll report back and let you know. Oh and I forgot to mention, Im also running a full time transfer case still, so im sure that doesnt help!!

Yeah I would be interested

The build took longer than quoted because they were backed up - it took about 8 months. Shouldnt have taken that long, and although it was frustrating at times, having the rig back and done right the first time makes it all worth it. I would do it all over again, those guys know their stuff. Im...

Hey Everyone, First off many thanks for the compliments and kind words, i honestly wasnt expecting this kind of response or this thread to generate almost 11,500 views! :Wow1: Apologies for the delayed response to this thread. About 2 weeks ago I was cutting some metal on my chop saw for a...

Thanks so much for the review. It sounds like it will work out perfect for what I need. Im going to place an order this week, and once its all setup and ive spent a few nights in it, I'll add a review here for others

Anyone?

I am at a point now where I can afford a RTT. I was ready to pull the trigger yesterday on a camping labs medium size, called Fernando with credit card in hand and said that they were not only out of stock, but due to some manufacturing issues, they most likely wouldnt have anything back in...

I also have been looking at a RTT. I was ready to pull the trigger yesterday on a camping labs medium size, called Fernando with credit card in hand and said that they were not only out of stock, but due to some manufacturing issues, they most likely wouldnt have anything back in stock for a few...

Hey Guys Just wondering if anyone has mounted their camping lab awning to a factory 80 series landcruiser roof rack? I will be attending GSMTR in Sparta in a couple of weeks, and my trailer project (which is what the awning was intended for) isnt finished, so would like to attach it to the...

Try this link it may be of help. I put this together about a year or so ago and keep it updated http://forum.ih8mud.com/60-series-wagons/349535-cruiser-mechanics-listed-state.html

Once you drive an 80 you wont look back -- of course you will visit a few more gas stations during your relationship, but its worth it!! :smiley_drive:

I'm looking at a healthy 12psi at wot and it's showing 10-11psi in cruise. Interesting about advancing the timing to reduce EGT's, I'll have to look into how to do that on this motor.

Great looking cruiser, you have some pretty awesome fab skills! Nice work :)
