Update time!! Spent an afternoon in the body man's shop today. Rounded up most of the things to send off for re-chroming and zinc coating. Got all NINE stock 16" wheels rounded up and ready to de-mount, determine what are the five best and then it is sand blast time. We are going to use an...

Thanks!! I suppose I should give s small update. First up, I am about 6 months behind on this project. Pretty typical. Between work and lacking tools + space the project just hasn't gotten the kick it needs to be a full on project yet. However, I recently bought a 5hp 60gal compressor, plasma...

I got lot's of engine parts if you need them, everything besides the block and crank. All from an 88 FJ62 that blew it's motor at 150k miles. Let me know! ;)

SOA can be done for a few hundred bucks and 35's fit nicely afterwards. Correction, a few hundred bucks plus new shocks!

I spent a fair amount of time in Cartagena, love the place! If you got some spare time check out Volcan de Lodo (don't quote me on the name). It is about 30-40k outside the city, easy to take a bus and well worth a visit to soak in the mud. ;) Oh ya and if you are driving across Colombia (duh)...

Great trip report! Loving it! And the tan LandCruiser looks almost exactly like one I saw in Playa Azul a few years back. I even had to check the plates to make sure it wasn't the same one!

Uhhhh....ya. SD33T Nissan diesel. Highly modified.

I tried that once....ended up having horse brain tacos! Nice trip report. Cheers!

I know and agree bro. But....I think the infrared does show things are running cool like they should.

Sweeeeet!! I like the platform. Going to do something similar in my 60 but about 4" lower and fridge access in the back. I also like the gauge upgrades, wanting to do similar. Thinking I may go with a full custom cluster in the stock panel. cheers

Another video of the engine..... Temp readings start at about 5:50. :rolleyes:

I like to think so but that is not always the case.... Pretty much bro, this truck takes priority, than the Ute for re-sale purposes and than my truck.

Depending on what you are after.... In my world (small) less electronics and direct injection = best.

Decisions made by client.... Going forward with; -Full trans & t-case rebuilds -Full front and rear axle rebuilds -steering box rebuild -brake rebuild -Full engine rebuild (already planned) but man we are going all out on it! Not only is my 10+yr parts stash going into the motor but so is the...

I had the same truck only with more upgrades...135k miles, TRD S/C, URD 7th, D-T headers, Jardine exhaust, custom rear Deaver leaf pack (built to weight of truck), TC Uppers, hard shell cap, E-locker, custom powder coating all around, 19gal aux fuel tank, National Luna Dual battery system...

Not much whistle at all in that engine and or turbo. What RPM's is it spooling up at? Sounds to be close to 2,000, aka 1,500 - 1,800. And man is it just me or is it not idle very smooth?

You know it brother....

you got it right. :) That front bumper extension for the PTO makes me /facepalm, but they always do when I see them.

Steering wheel is on the wrong side.... personally if I am buying it for long term and paying tens of thousands, I want the steering wheel on the correct side! But that is just meh.....
