Looking good!

Hope I did not forget to hand off any hardware.
Nope! It was all there and went on easy peazy. Thanks!

EDIT: Oh @KC Masterpiece , thanks for including that recovery point, I didn't realize it didn't come with one until after the fact.

As suspected. Rear locker wouldn’t engage after day one on Rubicon. Super happy it didn’t break!
RCV axles will happen before spring.

Added a new LC to the stable. Upgraded DD for my fiance. Family vehicle, single owner, 89k on the clock.

Needs new tires due to some dry rot. Thinking of going to a 16 if anyone has any wheels for sale.
I have a bunch of 16" LC/LX OEM wheels in my garage

Installed new Blackhawk trailing arms.
I ordered them at the end of April hoping they would be here before the Rubicon trip. They arrived the week after I got home


than I got to hang out wy cousin that just completed his training to be a United pilot.
he just retired last yet from the Army after 27 years. He was a pilot in the Army as well.

Finally stabbed my replacement F engine into the 70 FJ40 yesterday and my buddy @SteveH stopped by for a chat. Now on to the tranny and transfer case install.

-Tossed 3” icon lift springs in the front this morning. And soon landtank caster plates. Ill do the rears once I track down a pair of ‘inside the spring bump stops’. (I chopped mine down for airbag helpers) Anyone?

-I also started working on the winch plate mount yesterday.

Rear axle love yesterday and today. Rear wheel bearing on the 4Runner. The first one kicked my butt. Swapped the bad one. I’ll get to the other later. Did this yesterday.
today I drilled out a broken stud on the rear hub of the 80. New studs and cones, but no new nuts.
