Outer Limits 4x4 Board

Fieldsy: yep, that's why I'm at the pirate board, and here. New people, stuff I hvaen't read a million times...

This was very common practive over here in the old days before billet hysteer arms. As noted, if done right, this is not a problem. Use of high nickel content rod, preheating, and "throw it in a bucket of sand to slow cool," and the results have proven themselves. I still run one...

If the rear springs are real stiff, and you don't need tons of load capacity, take out a leaf or two, and fit softer, non-gas charged shocks...

Roight!

You the same fieldsy on the lcml? Mark Whatley has done this as have several others. It's not too difficlutl. Mount the 60 box to the frame rails. You may have to trim the driver's side shock tower, and it's a good idea to drill holes thru the frame, and then fill with stell tube so the frame deosn ...

It is a nice area. BIG dam with three spillways that drain into the original river valley. The spillways are opened up several times a year, releasing huge amounts of water that then re-arrange the areas pretty completely. There is also a nice network of woodsy trails surroung the lake and dam, so ...

You can see a pic of me and my 40 gettin' it at Disney Oklahoma, the South end of the Grand Lake Dam spillway in NE Oklahoma, here:

If you surf around that album some more, you can see more pix of "me and me mates" form several different trips. G'day!

Chef=Alan. Ehsan=the guy in Pakistan making the soft tops and bows. He is indeed with the islamabad jeep club...

You guys can get Old Man Emu there can't you? I've been well impressed with them so far...

I did geyt my top from Ehsan, you can see pix of it here m I think it's a high quality product, and includes all the factroy replica bows, which you just can't find over here. I had him make one for my fj45 as well, I haven't had time to play with that one yet...The pirate guys do tend to be a bit ...

Look here for pix of the top Ehsan Kiani from Pakistan is making, installed on one of my 76fj40's: m It is about $600US for the top, and all the factory replica bows and installing hardware. If you're running "ambulance doors" in the rear, you'll need to convert to a tailgate, or 1/2 doors...I'm ...

Hey y'all, just a shout out to you fellow land cruiser freaks! My name is Alan Loshbaugh. I'm a long time member of the Toyota Land Cruiser Association here, and dedicated cruiser owner. You can see all the various models down in my sig. My 65fj45 is in the midst of restoration. One 76fj40 is kinda ...
