I really like them still! Only really tested them twice now, but they're great. I'll be pretty underpowered until I regear, but how bad could it be? haha

Lucky man, I'm still in classes for the next 12 weeks before I have a short break before Fall Semester.
I'm also in Spain so can't complain.

Buy some 231s then when you get a big tip on the golf course, or are you gainfully employed elsewhere this summer?

Haha must be rough I'm sure!
231's don't fit under LC80 wheels sadly. I'm back at the same golf course, they were happy to have me back, have to pay off these tires and rebuild the rear shocks along with some more maintenance crap, and hopefully putting away some money for a regear in the fall.

Here's the finished washer reservoir.
Start with a 2" ABS Pipe, cap one end, JB Weld a mount on it, drill 2 3/4" holes for the pumps (one pump for the front windshield, one for the back window), mount the pumps with some silicone, let dry, paint everything and mount it. Good to go. Holds a decent amount I would say, I really don't use it all that much as it is.

Looks good, I really need to make a new wiper reservoir somewhere far from the tires haha

Haha I'm just hoping that the new tires don't just rip this off the mount, but we'll see. I gained multiple inches, I'll just have to try it out.
I just want my tires to get here already, the anticipation is killing me.

Alright I have a question for you guys. Do you think this is a leaky axle seal, or a leaky shock. I already know my Icon's leaky decently badly, but this seems excessive.
Notice the pattern on the tire.

I have jumped on a moving UPS truck before to get my stuff. Not advised to do such though.
How about 199s?
Have fun on the greens then. If the family goes on vacation to climb Mt. Fuji, walk Patagonia, or enjoy the clear waters of the Maldives, post some pics. I am STILL trying to get to the Matterhorn to no avail.

Shock. If the rear inner seal goes, the shoes are usually covered. Plus it is concentrated in only one area.

I would say no on the axle seal. It's fine. The dust on the brakes look dry. It's not the axle seal. It's just your shock leaking.
Mine had the same problem. It was also down the gas skid plate. Turns out my front diff was leaking at the cv axle and spraying down the vehicle hitting the shock and axle making it look like my axle seal.

One of those brake shoes looks like it has some grease/oil on it.
Are the shoes wet, sludgy AT ALL?
They should be completely dry and brake powder should be at the bottom of the drum.
I just opened mine up yesterday to check (new annual ritual) since i am paranoid about the leaks coming back.

If you haven't extended the breather, do it. And at the same time buy a new breather.
Considering those shoes have some kind of gunk on them, I'd save up for a day to redo the drum brakes with OEM shoes. Must have been easy to pull off those drums.

Thanks!
There is not one that I can find sadly. I only see the one in Mesa.
There is some grease in the brake shoe, hence why I posted the photos. I cleaned it all out of there, but it is certainly weird. I have to wait for my first paycheck before I begin rebuilding the shocks sadly.
I'd like to just go to discs in the back. Drum brakes are stupid haha
