Did not have time to see if the nozzles are adjustable as it started raining. Will check when the rain lets up.

A little preview of work in progress on the FF, planning on swinging by to hopefully take a few more pics before it’s installed. Thought about adding an ARB or Dynatrac diff cover after seeing JoeH’s setup.... 🤤 maybe later, these 60’s housings are pretty stout as is, but never hurts to bling it up.

Sweet! FYI, the dynatrac cover won't fit. The ARB is pretty nice but if red isn't your thing the Mag-Hytec offers a bit of bling

Installed front coil springs, shocks, and steering stabilizer, from Agile Offroad. Looking forward to testing them out.

I need to get a picture but I moved the pto charge controller box from on top of the dog house to the drivers side of the dog house and out of the way of daily use.

Installed a kwikee series 28 step that I got from Etrailer. Doesnt hang lower than the muffler when collapsed so clearance is fine.

Went to Vanspecialties and ordered a door galley box.

I can't believe that type of step fits so well and none of us have used it before (at least that I know of).

Ha ha ya. I had been wanting to get some kind of intermediate step between the ground and the van for my wife and family, especially if I am going to convert it to 4wd. The one day i was working on Sakurama's van and he had the 30 series that was on his from when it was a shuttle. Well the 30 series is like $650 bucks which I wasnt paying to get, plus it is a little wider than I would have liked. So I found this series 28 on E trailer for 350 and it came with an on off switch and a door switch so it will automatically open when I open the second barn door (didnt do the first because I like to just open that one and toss stuff in and out but if I open the second one it means business). Its not the newest model so it still has a somewhat soft feel when you step on it compared to the newer ones that they apparently fixed to make feel alot more stable. This series 28 also only supports 300lbs so if your over that or you have teenagers, make sure they dont go romping on it. It also has an override in it so if it encounters any resistance while opening it will stop which I really liked.
