Been a few days since I've had a chance to get online. Been too damn tired to do anything other than shit, eat, and then pass out after work.

Job is good so far... Mostly I've been working on an FJ60 Landcruiser for the past 3 days. Monday and Tuesday were spent installing a full suspension lift with new springs, shackles, shocks, sway bars, steering stabilizer, etc. Along with some welding & fabricating for a car trailer we have.

Back on the FJ60 today, I ripped the fuel system apart and replaced the gas tank, pump, sender, filter, did a complete tune-up, belts, every hose, all fluids, transmission pan gasket & filter, replaced the radiator, T-stat/housing, etc. This FJ60 has been sitting for 5 years and is in great shape, but the tank/fuel lines had LOTS of rust, and the cooling system was gelled up and had lots of cavitation. Tomorrow a few more parts arrive for it and she'll be road worthy and better than ever.

I'll be doing some rear quarter panel replacements on an oolder FJ40, along with replacing the dash, and some floor pan work. So that will be fun.

So far, so good. I love the traffic and the long commute! All 4 miles of it! That's one good thing about being outside of the big city...no traffic at all.

Anyhow, I'm off to bed here soon, talk to yall later.
