Oh, and the top is officially toast. Tore a hole I could crawl through in it last weekend. Hahaha. It was a crusty old top anyway. But black is the only color I can get for replacement now. I also bought a bikini top for it and in a month or so, I can just leave that on it (actually I've...

Haha, that's it! LOL. Nothing like the PNW. You guys have no idea how grateful you should be. Protect it so you don't lose it. I am planning a wheeling vacation in a few weeks, but the place we are going might not be open. It's a private park that a lot of events are held, even some US...

Haha, yes...I've been thinking the same thing. It's lame by 1987 they didn't put discs on the front at least.

Well, took it on a shake down run today. I was really happy with it, well balanced, gears are low enough (that was my biggest concern) and the turbo diesel kicks ass! Man, I'd love to have one in the US. When I need more wheel speed, I just put it in 4H and the turbo kicked in and really...

Interesting. If I brought anything to the US it would be something along these lines. http://www.luxuryimports.ca/forsale/1990HZJ73-1/index.php I don't know why Toyota never imported these here. I think they would have sold very well. I've seen several built up pretty nicely here.

Haha Bruce! The tires are Yokohama Geolander MT+. Only affordable, agressive tire I could get here. It's pretty agressive looking, better than the BFG ATs that were on it. The turbo diesel works great. I've had it in low gear and it seems to work just fine. I would prefer lower gears...

Haha, I'm used to it by now Scott. Although the young high school kids sure are a lot taller! They blame Mc Donalds and American food. They're probably right.

Thanks guys. I'd love to bring this back with me, but they never went through all the DOT crap to be imported, so I'd basically have to do it myself. I doubt it's up to 1987 US standards, so basically it's not worth it. These Jeeps were manufactured under license from Jeep starting in 1953 I...

This is my '87 Mitsubishi Jeep I recently acquired after learning I'll be in Japan another year. I needed something to wheel with and there are at least 4 areas within a few hours drive to wheel. The closest is about 30 mins. It's all pretty tame by American standards, so the Jeep is...

Right on Greg! Let me know how you like it on the trails. :cool:

Looks good Jonathan. Can't wait to see it in person. Keep up the good work, young man!:cool:

Yeah, and a leak down test. That should tell you everything. Does it run hot now?

Looking like some real progress there Nuzz. Won't be too long. You got a trailer, or you flat towing it?

Looking good Mike and Jack! Will you keep the bed and just stretch it behind the doors or going truggy?

Oh, and one more thing. Besides only being 2 row, my rad. is also smaller in surface area than the stocker. Yet is still cools better. Mine was around $200 at Summit.

And Lamar, the cooling properties of the raw metal material have nothing to do with why an alum. rad cools better. It has to do with physics and design. Like I said, you could make a brass rad. cool as well as an alum. with larger tubes. If that is your argument, then fine you win. Take your...

Well, I missed out on all the drama, but I gotta side with Jason and the alum. rad. The reason is that alum. rad. does in fact cool better. Even brass rad. manufacturers aknowledge that. Studies have proved it, there is really no point arguing the cooling differences. There may be other...

Sweet Greg, I knew you'd be done before me! Well almost done anyway. When you getting the one wire alt?

Manders gotz da parts! :hi:
