I had just enough line and time to do the manifold today. Only did the front and rear axle. Once I get more line I will do the transfer case and transmission. Here is the finished design!
Finally got the sliders bolted on. Not complicated, but kind of annoying to do solo, on my damp and gravelly alley driveway...
Ordered my sliders and also, did this...
I installed my LED fog lights, after wrapping them in yellow Lamin-X. It was my first time applying a film like this and was surprised at how easy it was to work with. Very happy with the result. I also finished wiring my PIAA lights mounted behind my grille. Pretty productive day. Tomorrow the new sliders will go on, time permitting.
today I removed the cb antenna off my car to cut down on the wind noise. I'm looking into doing a magnetic style antenna that I can remove when not in use. I did however utilize the mounts that I was using for the cb antennas. I still need to have the wiring done.

Family Christmas tree hunt was a success and as a bonus I got some off roading in.
I drilled holes in my roof and DIY'd on a OEM Explorer roof rails and crossbars set up. I like it.

Yeah they are. Old Trans Am Minilites. And thanks!
Installed my CB, yesterday weather sucked and made it harder to install with the hard top on. Still need to tune it, so I'll most likely do that tonight after work.
Went out and got buried with the Central Oregon Landcruisers! Got hammered with snow overnight and loved every second. Full trip report is HERE
Decided to try quickly lighting my truck after sunset
Installed my Bandi mount, ran wires for the CB radio, and tuned it all up. Now I can listen to truckers on long road trips and chat with fellow off-roaders! Also installed some LED headlights on the FJ. Not sure how I feel about them yet. The light is white and super bright, but the range isn't nearly as good as the HID's in my other vehicle.
Was a week ago but got some new wheels and tires. 17x9 AE 012 AND 35x12.5 r17 toyo at IIs
