    It looks great. I'm still really amazed at the whole process and am keeping the idea of wrapping the Land Cruiser close at hand.

    Took it off, everything came off that was needed besides the antenna base. I didn't have the proper tool and ended up destroying the nut, not really sure how I plan on replacing it at this point lol

    Not a problem on the use of the shop, I've been there before and it was my pleasure to be able to offer it up.

    The color in question is "Toyota 6H9, Olive Grey" and is an older land Cruiser color.

    This is the best photographic example I could come up with during a quick web search on a Land Cruiser BJ73. There is an older Toyota brown that I really dig too but I don't know the color code for it.

    Thanks man!

    I have about ~2" of threads showing, I wanted to get rid of more but the truck sits on the ground otherwise. I need to just buy 700lb coils but I'm a little uncertain of what the future holds for the truck so I'm not too concerned with it right now.

    Nice!


    Yesterday I threw some more beads in the wheels, I think I had just below what I needed last time. Still get a vibration around 50-55 so I may give it an alignment and see what happens. Might need to refresh some stuff to stiffen it up... we will see. Got the hang of this breaking the bead/seating the bead deal now, only took about 5-10mins a side

    Also took some pictures yesterday when I went for a bike ride, even hit 41.9mph for my top speed :eek:
