Took the wife to the beach, it really is the perfect beach cruiser.
Been so occupied this month with work projects, put a new engine in one of my mowers.
Going over the diff in my Powerstroke.
My parents saw this on the way up north and asked me if it was a friend of mine haha. Looks like a friend I’d to have, anyone recognize it?
While I had the top off I figured I should clean up and bed line the bed rails. The top rubs the paint off and then often rust there. I used EZ liner and then I decided to blend it back in and paint it white. Touched up some trail damage too. And I did an oil and filter change. So it should be ready to go for the summer.
Is there a better chevy based transmission that would hold up better than a w56? Or do you think the Toyota trans would be fine?
Hey Slick, Those are my very top-secret steel toe safety flip-flops. Great for chunks of flying sheet metal and grinder discs.
Tom, get those tube doors on there and have some fun with the girls!!! I like the half door actually. I’m driving right now with the top off which I’ve actually never done in any of my 4runners.
One wheeling trip planned end of August. So much of this summer is a write off, just so busy. Have a couple cottage trips planned for the quad but probably won’t take the Runner. Started messing around this morning with some half doors. Going to put in some cup holders. Too and figure out a way to run some side mirrors. Apparently I cut just the right amount out because I was able to use all factory sheet metal.Lost about 4/5 I hooked into, I didn’t bring my baitcaster and braid, so I had like 10lb test and a steel leader.
Didn’t make it as far up the trail as we wanted with the quad towing the trailer. So we turned back and camped in this big sand pit. Tons of bugs but caught a nice musky!
Couldn’t be bothered to mess around with it anymore, on top of all the other small engines I have to fix and maintain. So I sold it to a super nice guy in Oakville and went and bought this today, my wife likes it more even though it’s kinda slow. But this is a lot newer (has a fuel gauge) and looks way simpler to maintain.
Bought this 2000 Sportsman for my wife, it has 900 Miles and seems to be pretty clean. I changed the oil and We took it for a half hour ride and it overheated….. grrrreat. Checked the water pump and it’s spinning freely, checked the thermostat tonight and it opens. Hopefully just gonna pull the rad after work tomorrow and flush it and then get a water pump gasket on Tuesday and see what happens
