I could use the metal threaded piece and two good turn signal housing that are not stripped out. I realize I can buy new housing however the 62 is so original I don’t want a shinny new piece on it. The LV turn signal housing is also stripped out.
Thank you for the offer. I was not aware that the threaded end of the rod was separate from the long rod. I don’t have an early 40’s manual. So, what I need is this piece below if you have one. Without a hole. lol
What are your thoughts for tires for this truck? It has no lift. Stock Suspension. The ones that are one it are dry rotted and need replaced to safely drive at highway speeds regularly. I was thinking about BF Goodrich Mud 31X10.50R15. Should I go with Mud or AT tires? Is there something...
It looks very good. They took a pressure washer to the engine bay and it blasted a lot of paint off of the engine compartment. I we have to clean that back up. The shifter rod also stripped out from the turn signal housing in the past. They drilled it and put a bolt in it. That doesn’t work well...
I pulled the 62 out of the barn this will and took it for a spin. It runs great. 60 mph plus. Very pleased with it. Bad news is the soft top I bought for it does not fit. That’s frustrating!
I bought one overseas for the 62. I have not tried it on yet so I can't say for sure that it will fit properly. I will let you know if it does and maybe someone can use it for a pattern.
We all trade Cruisers like kids trade baseball cards.
Right now my plans are to keep them. I paid a lot for this little gem and the LV. I can't imagine finding one's more original and in better condition.
I flew out to California this week to purchase a few Land Cruisers.
This little gem is a beauty.
