I've never had a downpipe leak so bad it couldn't wait a few days to save $30. I just wanted to let you know there's lots of options besides the dealer.

Finished up a "BAK-PAK-RAK" and brought Clancy into the shop for some BRAKE LOVE!

Front bumper build coming next week.

Just tweaked an older idea/product is all... These will be available for sale SOON... If you ever want to play up in WY- BLM land, give me a shout and we can get in a welding lesson or two as well.

Not necessarily per say "did to my Rover" today but more or less "for my Rover" today...

Sold off one of my FJ60 Land Cruisers and shipped it out to Chicago. Now more room for Clancy and other R&D Rovers for armor and modifications...

Cheers,

Jason

-Swapped in some D2 door seals in prep for the winter.
-Patched both my rear wheel arches by welding in some new steel and slapping some gutter sealant at the joints.
-Got tired of looking at my flapping rear door panel.

-So I cut a new one from some panel board (or whateverthe heck it is), tossed on some black paint and a coat of poly. Its definitely not HD like aluminum or diamond plate but it'll do alright. And it was free, quick, and easy.

FJ60 one of my favorite trucks of all time. Not cheap. I can never find one in my price range. That one looks great! I may take you up on that lesson!


Fish nice work on the panel. Free is always good.
