Is it a converted fj60 or a hj60? It sounds like your glow plugs may not be working. 12 or 24v? Its worth having the battery's load tested they can show a full charge but drop badly under load when they are tired. Mine had a similar issue that turned out to be the battery's. Then another...

Pretty sure the 70 series housing is only shorter on one side so one side is the same.

Haha some times it's the only way to get them loose. If the po has bent the hub doing it in the past.

Basic handwinch mounted to the trailer will do it easily provided the tires are not flat brakes not siezed and it's not in gear.

You can get rhd carpets or vinyl from aussie. Guessing that the headliner is the same for both. Visors are different if you have the sunroof and altimeter tmstuff up there.

I've been driving mine hj60 daily for the last four years probably done over 120000km currently doing 200km+ a day Its always fun if a bit noisy. More soundproofing and central locking would be an improvement. I do find it unpleasant to drive in the city.

3312988912 try this listing in trademe guy seems to have lots of cruiser parts. And will actually answer a question unlike the marketplace sellers

12ht and interchange. The input shaft is the same but you will need flywheel and a 2h/12ht bellhousing. I've heard you may also be able to use a combo of 45 series mount to fit a 2h/12ht into a fj60 I have never tried that though.

The bellhousing and input shaft are differnt for a b series. Transfercase should swap over. If you got a bare trans. It's a heavy slug with an auto.

Hilux kit should be similar but intercooler kits for 4wds seem overpriced not a big market like street cars. Post would be expensive and with the way things are it might never arrive. A universal kit isn't expensive helps to know someone who can tig the pipes together...

The 60 series ff rear is approximately 1348mm or 53 inches over the flanges for the backing plate how much wider is the 80 series housing? Anyone got one lying around to measure.

I screw the dash in and reach up from underneath you can't see but you can feel when it goes on. Not the best design. Really annoying when you get it all together and realise you forgot one of the other plugs

Agree its past being worth the effort you can get new roof skins from Toyota.

Fixed the pressure drop gotta be a win. Is that pipe running tubo across engine then back across under the radiator then 180 deg into the i/c?

There's a few threads where its done. You may have to dig into the search box.
