    No tube doors. I didn’t want to risk it with the rain. Thanks for the heads up though
    I always put a very light coat on.

    I did last time too, just wondering what the sage has to say about it.

    Edit: I've done it on all of my vehicles. I just heard though that some plugs you arent supposed to.

    You know how it is, I'm going through what your wife went through last year. I brought that land cruiser as my daily driver when I TAD to California for all my.rotations over the next 2 years. Then I'm going to custom build a link suspension on it and put 40" tires with triple lockers. Gonna be a good time. Hope you're doing well! Maybe we can meet up some time when I'm in town and free next year!

    I disagree.

    Work smarter, not harder. Sometimes brute force is the wrong way to go.

    Finessing the drilling operation with a sharp saw will always yield outstanding results. No need to muscle your way into the thin sheet metal. Nice and easy, with a firm but consistent/even pressure does the trick.

    As my dad always reminded me (he owns a construction firm.). “Let the tool do the work... you’re just there to guide it”

    A modern tool will incorporated many convenience and safety features that peeps should take advantage of. The clutch on the drill is one of them. It not only helps set stop points when you drive in screws for flush or countersink, but it also prevents backlash during drilling. Why not take advantage of that feature?



    Damn my snorkel holes are clean!

    Smoking is bad for you. It will cause you to loose 5-10 years of life. I would be more concerned with the smoking than the plugs :anonymous: you need to switch to:rasta: if you insist on keeping the habit

    I never put antiseize on spark plugs. I feel that if the factory didn't do it it's not needed. Also if you just got regular copper core plugs they should only be in there for 30k so there shouldn't be any problems getting them out.

    Ummm one joint is as bad as a pack of cigarettes for the amount of tar into your lungs. Yeah it's a nasty sucky habit I wish I could kick it also.
