[@paulsthormes251]

remember the 1st time I drove my truck .No hood no doors want through a Starbucks Coffee Had a lot of looks . Your truck looks great👍

[@musiccitycruisers3863]

Haha that’s brilliant!

Congrats! A lot a work, and now you are close to pure joy. I owned and drove an FJ45 long bed (same colors as yours) 12 years here in Northern California. Had a factory PTO winch on it. Not as comfortable as my FJ40 but a very cool, rare vehicle. Enjoy! Geologyjohn

I would recommend getting a watch dog temperature Alarm. Save my truck Radiator hose blew I was able to pull over Keep engine from overheating.

[@musiccitycruisers3863]

Haven’t heard of that but I’ll look into it. Thanks for the tip!

Thanks!!

Hi, I'm from India & enjoy watching your show. Which exhaust system have you used on this 2F engine? Thank you.

[@musiccitycruisers3863]

Hi Nidhish, thanks for watching. In this video it was just running straight headers (no exhaust) which is why it sounded so loud. I did have an exhaust fitted later on to quiet things down but it was nothing special just a basic muffler

Epic🤗 Love that truck 😘🍻👏🏾

[@mizeadventure9438]

thats awesome! did you rebuild your h55? im in the process of doing a rebuild on a used one I got my hands on. wondering if you had any tips

[@musiccitycruisers3863]

No, it’s a new H55 from Toyota with a rebuilt 60 series transfer case using Terrain Tamer parts. Sorry can’t be of help there, thanks for watching

Hi Mate, love the ute. I hope mine tunes out as well. I love the bumper that you have at the rear. Do you have any plans on the build or do you have a video on when you made it. Thanks dave (instagram- firstsilverfoxs40)

[@musiccitycruisers3863]

Hey Dave, thanks for the compliment. The rear was a one off by a fab shop based on some pics I sent him a while back. It’s pretty stout

Is 2f better than 3f engine?

[@musiccitycruisers3863]

Hey Jonas, no not necessarily. The 3FE is the new generation. Things like fuel injection were added which is nice, but many people are adding fuel injection to these old 2Fs and getting great results. The engines are very similar

[@jonascagape520]

@@musiccitycruisers3863 but for power output who wins?

[@musiccitycruisers3863]

The 2F had 135hp/200ft lb from the factory, the 3FE 155hp/220ft lb torque so close. 2F is little more simpler to work on
