yea the only problem is i need to take out the whole stem, which will require the wheel and tyre to come off. bit of a pain in the ass! so might not get around to doing that for a while unfortunately.

the yellows go together really well.

ah to easy mate, will catch up in the new year sometime.

yea i dont know, will turn out pretty shit i think, or i will get paint on my wheels etc..

see what happens, i may be able to get ones soon then get them fitted when the sway bars go on.

How'd you go with the swaybars man?

haha, thanks but no thanks jarrad! have done all this effort for the wheels, not going to finish it off with dogey painted valves, which i would have to take off the wheel anyways to do a decent job ha.

was very nervous putting the stickers on yesterday, nearly stuffed the first one up. in the end did a pretty good job i think. would be much easier with the wheels off to do that aswell.

good mate, they are sitting in at bowers, my car is booked to get them fitted there first week in jan. very keen!

    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
    • The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
