Re: Two Patrols in Nashville area

I think one of those was me, I picked up the 67 that was primered.

Re: Brakes overhaul

I definitely get what y'all are saying and I appreciate your comments. I'd much rather keep it stock but frankly it comes down to actual seat time. I'd like to get it on the trail sooner than later, and for what I'd like to do with it (regearing, lockers, etc), the axles would have to eventually be ...

FS - Stock '67 Axles

Hey y'all, I'm swapping axles in my 67 and am putting the existing ones up for sale, I can verify gear ratio if needed. Front axle is complete. Rear axle is missing brake pads/hardware and cylinders but has drums. Make me an offer, I'd rather see these go as a pair but am willing to let them go sepa...

Re: Brakes overhaul

HOLY SMOKES. $250 for shoes and cylinders? Good lawd. I can find a junkyard Dana 44 with discs for less than that and then actually be able to regear it. That's nuts! I mean, I get it, keeping it pure it would be great but that's not really my top concern. I'd like to build a capable vehicle that's ...

Brakes overhaul

I'm going through the brakes on the 67 and need a few pointers on parts. I need: Shoes (rear) Cylinders (all 4 front, 2 rears and balancing pieces) Springs (preferably all of them) Hoses (I can source these through earls, I just need to verify fitting sizes) Master cylinder (if possible, or rebuild ...

Re: Disk Brakes

What's the plan for an emergency brake? I am looking to do something similar to this with mine but had planned on retaining the rear drums so that I could keep the e-brake, or perhaps go with a transfer case brake. I'd like to move to 35s and swap in a 3.3L V6 from a 99+ Frontier/Xterra while retain...

Carb scoop/hat

Hey y'all, When I first popped the hood, I had never heard of an oil bath air cleaner, so I panicked a little when I saw the air filter laying in a pool of brownish fluid. After reading it was normal, I did a bit of research and I'm convinced I'd like to get rid of it for a oiled gauze (K&N or s...

Re: New 60 Owner in Alabama

Congratulations to your daughter! I will let you know about that turn signal, I might switch them out to LED though but I appreciate it either way!

Re: New 60 Owner in Alabama

@plateaucal Don't be sorry, it could be worse, I could be in Tuscaloosa! :mrgreen:
