I got a small portable fan with a LiPo battery. USB chargeable, a few speed settings, random LED light and decent life. Price is worth waiting or using camelcamelcamel on. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B06WRSZNL9

I like the I-6, but with caveats. The only V8 I have had for any time is a warmed up 454 in the FJ45 and that motor is a different animal and not really an adventure setup. :D The 62 is nice because of the slightly narrower track than newer stuff (fits fine on ATV trails) and it always...

Sold

^^ yep. There is an internal thermoresister that will eventually blow (doing it's job) if heat builds up enough due to vent blockage. Standard on all brand designs of this type of compressor driven fridge and not too hard to fix. Also $100s cheaper than replacing the compressor. Dims are...

Sold! Thank you for your interest. This is new in box, shrinkwrapped, unopened. It's the largest dual zone Dometic makes at 95L. If you shortened the height of a Rigid truck box, that is about the physical size. I have a CFX-50 that is similar and also have the pre-acquisition Waeco CF-40...

I found it better to look at a diesel swap for a combo of power and range upgrade. I don't think the daily mpg bump will ever work out economically especially at those prices. Depending on what is involved, I think $15K is just the starting point. I did a 5spd conversion from auto, 1HZ and...

The Bluesea appears to be like any of the other aux 12v socket plugins- ambient only (no external sensor). I have tried a couple chinese products and they don't tend to last or can be pretty inaccurate (10F off is pretty bad). It is now possible to build your own display controlled by an...

It's probably no better than with Gaia. Seems to take forever.

I've used a small disk shaped rare-earth magnet stuck onto the mic (metal mount on back that the magnet sticks to) for years and haven't had any issues. The biggest issue is probably taking care not to crush the magnet. They are pretty soft. BTW, Kenwood makes a radio with a forward facing...

It is not that difficult to add ~10psi turbo boost and wake the 1HZ up significantly. At that low pressure, you don't have to worry about hurting anything and the rewards are significant. It is very easy to pass with a 1HZ-turbo'd loaded down cruiser. :D The 1HZ may be Toyota's longest...

I use 5w-40 Mobil 1 Turbo Diesel Truck oil in the 1HZ

Short answer is no. One way to do this would be to write an OBDII interface to grab the GPS data (over bluetooth unless you build a physical USB-OBDII adapter, which would eat your device's USB port) and then modify your android app to read that data. Kind of a steep barrier without some...

I like the Sigma 24-105 over Canon's. It is very well made and is a bit crisper.

I have been using GAIA and OsmAnd on phone or tablet lately. GAIA gets the usgs quad detail that is nice and OsmAnd provides a good backup with relatively small data footprint (plus you can download per state/region, worldwide). OsmAnd gives you the opportunity to improve maps and contribute...

The spacer on the transmission came in during '85, so if you have any ideas to install an H55 5spd (which is a great upgrade), the newer FJ60s make it easier. I'm a fan of the FJ62. The auto is pretty great, O/D is higher than an H55's 5th gear, great control offroad in low range, and motor...

Looks like a well built truck to me. I'm not sure if the comments are from a purist angle or what (doubtful, nobody with an "opinion" appears to own a 40), but other than the Warn hubs I'd rock it to GSMTR or SCC happily. OSU school colors are orange, so I may be biased. I think priced around...

Posting this here because the small world ends up being just as scenic as the big world... this new macro lens (Tamron 90 f/2.8) is going to be an addictive problem.

Precisely this is why I built the FJ62 the way it is. 50 gallon main tank, 1HZ Toyota diesel with a turbo added, H55 5 speed, no roof rack garbage. 900 practical miles with some to spare, about 600-700 offroad depending on what is going on terrain-wise. It is fantastic. It also zips me up...

The truck lived most its life in Sisters in dry high desert air, so all bolts come off clean and the body is wonderful except.. my adding "character." ;) The shock stuff with shipping was fitment stuff. No real need to keep it on unless you want your shocks looking perfect for some reason. We...

Hey Luis! I missed something in what you asked at first? I have picasa albums of all the builds. Here is the 62's featuring Luke and Kevin doing some magic on my beater- https://picasaweb.google.com/101555649801414165168/62build?authkey=Gv1sRgCP6hpqGU2NivhgE Let me know if you want to see...
