Thanks. Still waiting for someone to make a offer and can't believe no one has. Pretty tough to find any of these in this kind of shape that have been babied for the last 12 years since I got it imported. Just hoping it will goto a cruiser guy. Come on guys someone make me a reasonable...

sorry no lockers

1988 BJ74 13b-t 5speed with 105,000km. Hate to let her go but not getting enough use last few years. 1st and only owner for last 11 years since it came over on the boat from Japan. PTO winch, power windows and locks, front glass has cracks. No rust or body issues at all. Still had factory...

You actually could have asked him for a drink since it appears as though you were hanging out at the Pat or Joe Dogs before you took the pics. Or your friend was at least. haha. Cool unit. Thanks for the pics.

Might be interested in all the parts as spares if you still have them. What year was the unit they came from? Send me a PM to gbusch@telusplanet.net.

Yep same problem with the optimas for me. On the third one in less than a year. Greg how hard is it to put a load balancer on one of these BJ74 units? Oh and how much are they? Any help would be appreciated. This battery replacement thing is starting to get expensive. Never had such...

Had a buddy put his on the top of his snorkel by simply drilling a small metal plate onto the top and tada the perfect spot for good reception. If you don't have a snorkel well they are way to cool to not have one so you better get one. Plus they sound cool when you have your window down and...

If you have a 13B-T in your 74 I believe that it already has one. I could be wrong but after looking at my unit it appears as though these engines shut themselves off by simply cutting off the air supply to the engine. I am not sure if the fuel is also cut off. Some of the more technical guys...

Hey Guys just to let you know that my truck was in the shop the other day in Lloydmister and a Alberta inspector was in the shop talking to all the mech. about the influx of JDM's they are doing inspections on and low and behold my BJ74 was there and of course he checked out the windows and the...

Ohh great!!! More money to spend but how can a guy say no to something like that. Count me in as usual for another new piece of equipment. Damn you guys on this forum!!!!! You all keep costing me money. I hope all of have to take out a second mortgage - then and only then will I be happy...

Man it's great to see some original fabrication stuff like that. Starts to give some good ideas for the Future. What type of pipe did you use? Now all you have to do is ram it up against some rocks and trees and see how it works. We should always be posting pictures of any new fabs on all of...

The 13-BT probably works on a selonoid system that either shuts off the air like a postive air shut-off or the fuel from the injection pump when there is no voltage through the system. I haven't checked out the 74 very close under the hood to see exactly how it works but I don't think that it...

I need to know if anyone has had a the same problem. A few weeks ago my BJ74 had sat for unstarted for a week and when my friend went to start it there was no power. He checked all the connections and found one that he thought was loose and was the problem. He tightened it and put on a charger...

Thanks guys for the leads. I will get things checked out this week and will post what I find. I hope I won't need to ask anymore questions.

I need a little help guys with a electrical problem that was encountered today. My BJ74 was sitting for a couple of weeks and when my buddy went to start it up there was no batt. power. He found a loose connection to one of the batteries and tightened it up and was able to start the truck but...
