Holiday bump. Price negotiable. Recently professionally detailed, and having fun driving on the weekends while it's still mine! Merry Christmas, all!

Still for sale! My apologies to @Stl_commuter and others for the complete lack of response. Entered a beyond-crazy season at home & at work, and the FJ40 sale went on the backburner. If you're still in the market, please reach out and let's talk. Also, check out the awesome ExPo feature by...

Up for sale is our 1978 Toyota FJ40 Land Cruiser in Sky Blue. This truck has been well cared for in our family for nearly 30 years, 2 decades of which were in the southern California desert before relocating it to Seattle, WA. With a hair under 94k original miles of unforgettable memories and...

Didn’t realize you had a hood scoop for the intercooler. [emoji1303] Do you have a pyrometer hooked up? What EGTs are you running?

Congrats on finishing the build! What a project! Would love to hear how that motor performs in the D1. Maybe I missed it, but what transmission are you using? Any way to move that intercooler up front to get some fresh, cool air? Maybe look at the 300Tdi intercooler/radiator setup as a starting...

Real nice. Thinking about doing something similar on my D1. Can you provide dimensions of the tank?

Any updates on your Disco products, Jason?

Great deal for someone looking to build up their D2! I took the same approach when building up my D1. Good luck with the sell.

Great idea on the antenna tubes, Ray. I may have to copy that idea for my spare HAM antenna. :) I'm also pondering how to tackle some window guards a la Mantec, as well as a cargo barrier. I now have access to a CNC plasma cutter, so may go that route. I lack welding skills, though it's...

Great stuff, Ray! Jealous of all the time you've found to spend on Coyote! Though I know it's been a long time coming for you. It's cool to see such a functional, purpose-built truck, and it keeps on getting better. I like what you've done with your door panel. Mine has been a blank slate since...

For sale?!! Best of luck! What's next?

Very nice, Theo! Curious how the Teflon slides hold up over time. Seems like a great alternative. Any play in the drawers?

Interesting. No details on the subscription cost, though. Curious how it compares in total cost to the SPOT equivalent.

Yes, thanks for the clarifying info, DiploStrat! I'm just going to point back to your post next time I see questions like this. Cheers.

The Blue Sea ACR will still operate as designed in terms of battery combining/isolating based on charge state, but your batteries won't be optimally charged. I experienced this on my FJ40 when I installed a starting batt and a much larger deep cycle batt. My understanding now is that batteries...

I lost power steering on my Disco a couple blocks from home yesterday. Looks like my steering box blew a seal and dumped all the PS fluid. Oh joy. So, what’s a guy to do? My knowledgeable and trustworthy local Land Rover mechanic says a new Land Rover box is the only way to go. He swears by...

Just before Christmas, I headed down to the heated garage at Defenders Northwest with the two 3rd members in hand, and 12 hours of wrenching later (I'm slow...), drove away with my TrueTracs and 4.12's installed front and rear! Photos or it never happened, right? Only snapped a couple rather...

Looking good! 👍

Yes, that would work. Or go ahead and install a female connector and tape it closed to protect it.

Using the yellow switch on the ACR, you can leave the unit in Auto mode and let it use its built in logic (combines the batteries when they are being charged, and isolates batteries when there's no charging source, i.e., alternator, solar panels, shore power). Or flipping the switch the other...
