I’ll probably put longer struts too and keep it in an angle... with solar panels on top is more likely to get sun in the morning which is when il be sleeping... thanks for the feedback and congrats for the truck

Oh I see now, I thought they were 2 extra struts... So they don’t extend... mmm how is your experience in modify the fiberglass in the place where those bars mount? Do you think will be duable? How is your roof with strong wind? (noise, sturdiness, etc?)

Your truck looks amazing. I really like the mattress, where did you get it from? Btw, I can’t see the structure that “wraps around the truck” would you mind to take a photo of it? I’m thinking to change my roof to make it like yours 😉

Hi guys, Here is my HJ75 1988 Trakka troopy here in Perth, Western Australia. Seems exactly the same conversion although my roof tilts on one side. Does yours have any braces/hinges to guide it up when pops? Are only the struts pushing and holding in place? I’d like to transform mine like...

thanks

Yep, I did all the oils. Apart from gearbox and transfer case because they have the famous internal leak so I will fix them first. I replaced the diaphragm and greased up all the greasable points. I've replaced the water separator because had little bit of rust at the bottom with a glass one...

Thank you for the advice! I am new to land cruises and I'm after a mechanic or someone that can give me some good advices for this amazing vehicles. Is there anything else that you would advise me? Cheers!

I see, I'll probably pass for the moment... I'll see how it goes. I'm not in a rush when I go around and reliability to me is the main thing. My 2H sounds healthy for the moment... Are you in Perth?

Thank you! I thought about that, but my 2H has only 280.000 kms and doesn't feel tired... Ok she's not fast but I don't think is the whole vehicle made to be fast. How much a 12ht would be for and how much a 2H like mine can be sold for?

Here is some interior shots as per @Mookies request. 1. The bed 2. Side window shot 3. Ceiling shot 4. Bed open headroom shot 5. Bed closed headroom shot It is a simple multi section bed that I will eventually upgrade in a pull down version... maybe.

Hi everyone, So I replaced my 2h fuel pump diaphragm with the big help of this forum old threads. My HJ75 runs fine and seems to be all good. When I pulled the cover of the diaphragm off (4 flat head bolts) I've noticed that the top bolt had a piece of steel wire going through it, like a seal...

I love it too. Such an easy way to set up the camp...

Thank you :)

Thanks :)

Yeah it is actually. The only rust I could spot is in the A pillar, where the water drain from the drivers (right hand for me) door shell hit's the pillar with the door closed.
