Finished the platform this afternoon. Still $0 spent, and retains access to cubby.
I’d like to find a slide out tray/tabletop, but no rush.

Without the ice chest, it will flip fully forward.

I approve...

When I decide how to build each one. The 85 is in such good shape I'd like to get white steelies and skinny 32s
The land cruiser is also in good shape and thinking a mild lift and 37s
The AC is the daily and you will only see me on the street with it
The DC is the one you've always seen and I'm wanting to save up for a few larger items.

I really need to make more money and get my head out of my ass and decide what to do first. A one ton would be nice but not at the moment and I'm on the fence about doing another trailer. I'm also really want I'll ng to build a dock out back but that eats up truck money and since we just got my girlfriend a 4runner that shes been dreaming of she wants to build it also.

Here's the 85 interior, it's too nice to hack up for me

yeah that is why you sell those nice parts to someone trying to restore a truck so you can use that money to beat it up! Unless you are trying to restore it then i would say keep it. It would look good with some skinny tires and white steelies!

Hmm. This could be the brake-grinding noise I’ve heard.

I do believe that would do it!

Gingerbeard Man · Feb 25, 2019

It’s almost time for me to do brakes. That reminds me.

I have almost 2” between the platform and the truck; I’ll be mounting a slide out tabletop to the underside once I make it.

First set I had popped when the suspension flexed. The updated ones(second set) leaked grease out of the top and bottom of the bj (at the fitting), I was told was normal for the bottom of the bj.

Right at 50k I checked them while on the lift at Tandem after Goodyear told me they were needing replaced soon.

Replacing both ball joints didn't eliminate the noise I'm chasing, but suspension is a little quieter anyway. I was changing my oil at the same time and ran out of daylight, so I'll take another look tomorrow. I need to replace a bolt on the skid plate anyway. Maybe I'll find the skid plate is causing some of the noise I think I'm hearing. I know it rattles just a little bit. One of the rear 12mm bolts got cross threaded in the nut that's tack welded inside the frame. The nut broke off the frame and now I'm having a hard time separating the bolt and nut. Not much room for tools in there with the LCA installed. This is a fun one to try to fix.

Another thing I'll check is the radiator/body mounts as mentioned here: https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/body-mount-bushing-install-now-with-pictures.432885/
I have the radiator bushings in my stash of parts, but not the cab mounts

One squeak I chased for months turned out to be the rubber grommet on the hood that comes in contact with the core support. Dab will do ya and it went away.
