Thanks man...I have not done too much lately due to weather and funds.
As of now I have to replace the Alt, the break line T that I used to replace the LSPV, and a bit more tiger hair to get it to pass inspection.
After that I need to get the BJ spacers installed, they are not doing any good sitting in the back seat!
Then I have to tear into the parts truck and pull the tranny out and all the goodies that go with it.

The list is never ending...Between the runner and the truck and then the lil lady complaining all I do is work on the Toyota's. If I'm out there I don't have to hear her! 
I'm also waiting on a Mig and garage...Then the fun begins.

OK, got a lil done on her this weekend. Pic's to follow later on.
Got a new alt installed then found the bat was shot. So that's in now as well.
Got the brake line mess straightened out, my guy didn't like the compression fittings I had in there so all that's gone now with flare fittings.
Have most of the holes in the back filled in, another quick skin of tigerhair/bondo/mud just to fill it in a bit. Don't have a welder yet.
Taking for inspection on Thurs, gots to pass have a run Sat!!!

Ok Ok, you got me there...
I had to do "More" brake line work this past weekend...and a bit more bondo. The fiber galss sheets didn't hold I think it was too cold for it to set right.

I'll try and get some pictures of the patch work for ya!
Ya, brake issues are just miserable. There is something in the brake fluid that just makes my hands a mess and my nails split if I've been in it too long. Some kind of allergic reaction I think.

Alrighty a lil update here...I've had this bumper laying about for 6 months or so and decided it was time to get it on. Sorry no pic's of the install.
So after a fresh coat of paint there she is.


I did have to do the BFH mod on my body work to get the bumper on...its a little wider than the stock body. I'm going to have to patch up the passenger side as well. But I'll do that later on...Had to be done before winter though.
It was thoroughly tested recently I had to pull some rather large trees up the back hill and bumper held nicely.
