What Did You Do To Your 3rd Gen Today?

[A.Wilson013]

had alignment redone after replacing rear bushings.

I hope you didn't pay for that since there is nothing to adjust back there...

spent the day putting on my Toytec SS brake lines... front 2 went on nicely though I had to run to Yoda Jims for a short hard line that rounded off... then the rear.. well I can't even get the old one off.. nothing has worked. At this point the nut is almost shot so I have to find a way to deal with that issue. Any ideas??

Finally moved on to trying to correct my stance issue... OME 892's sittin too low in the rear being replaced with LC 9.25 wrap. Lets just say I didn't plan on the amount of compressing i was going to have to do to get them in there. 1 today the other tomorrow.

I've been hearing about por15, it's it really as awesome as it seems?

I don't have enough posts to make a topic so I'm posting here lol. But anyways the thread that your bolts for your seats screws into unattached and now I can't screw my front left bolt in on my seat.

Any advice?

It's a common thing...a few different ways to fix. I chose to drill, then run a bolt through the floor, nut, washers, all good. Always, check to make sure where you're drilling is clear of stuff.

(ignore the seat mount, the bracket is the same)

I had this on my girlfriend's MR2...

We fixed it by welding a nut to a sheet of steel to make a fresh screw surface, then welded that sheet into where the old hole was.

once painted for corrosion and the carpet was back down, you'd never know.

Had to put a pause on the rear bumper build for a while. So I painted it and mounted it as is. It turned out way better than I had hoped.

I took the factory grab handles out and put in some paracord ones in their place. Had to drill the head off of the driver side screws and spin the remainder of the screw out with vise grips. Adds a little bit of character inside I think. I also picked up my personalized plates today.

Unrelated but I am back home in Colombia and checking out a bunch of Hilux Surfs, Prado's and a BUNCH of FJ40's. The FJ's sell for about $2.5k USD. I may be importing one while I'm here for a month. This is the Nissan Patrol Diesel and the FJ40 Diesel my Uncle owns.
