Yeah, I have looked but I think they rewired it. Tried tracing wires from alternator which should be in line with voltage regulator but wires change color probably due to splicing. I know it isn't OEM but being it came from Columbia figured it could be anything that would require voltage...

I bought a 1977 FJ40 about 2 years ago (yeah from Columbia). I am trying to trace back an electrical issue, battery and alternator all check out but I think it is the voltage Regulator. The truck came with a huge stereo system with a giant base speaker in the back, amp, and about 4 to 6 other...

Thanks, I will contact them.

I didn't know they did restorations, thought they only sold parts. I will check them out.

Does anyone have any information on any shops in Texas that takes on Frame Off Restorations. I have project about 50 - 60% complete but just don't have the time to complete and very tough to do only the on weekends in the garage. I have looked at thread on MUD but so many shops are in Colorado...

Mine is not complete as yet but I used the "Frostbite Model FB602B 24.8" X 12" X 3" Summit Racing #FBR-FB602B" intercooler. If that helps.

I had the same issue with the High Mount AC bracket. If I remember correctly the power steering connection that has the conflict with the frame is pressed into the pump and can be carefully rotated, at least I did on mine. Hopefully it will not leak.

Any Updates???

How’s it driving now and is it any quieter???

I wonder if that noise is inherent to the NV4500. I'm using the H55 I will eventually (i Hope) see how noisy mine is.

Flashed by so fast couldn't read your tach, what rpm's running at 70 mph???

Yeah mine is the round one mine is a 1964. Thanks for the facebook info I will check it out.

No, I didn't know of any facebook groups. If I have to I will try and straighten my old one. I think there are some chrome ones out there that I can always get powder coated. Yours looked new so I thought you might have a source.

Yeah the bezel, I have been having trouble finding one that is original, been watching ebay.
