I did make a custom shaft for the transmission to transfer case. It was made from an OEM Toyota transmission output shaft. You can’t make the drivetrain shorter because the 722.6 transmission output shaft and hub is as short as it can be. The output shaft on the 722.6 transmission is the same...

Bellhousing to rear driveshaft flange is 37.75".

Here's my adapter for the Toyota transfer case and 722.6 transmission next to an a440f from an fj62.

That is true for the Mercedes 722.6 as well, you would need a TCU to control the transmission. Depending on what kind of injection pump you run on the Om606, you have a few options to control the transmission with an OEM TCU or a stand alone unit. In any case, if your TCU gets damaged ( OEM...

" I bought a license plate frame with 12 volt LED light. " You kind of answered your own question there. If the frame states 12v LED, than you shouldn't need anything else to make them work. However LEDs have polarity, so you have to pay attention how you wire them up. Maybe try...

Yes, those items will do the job. Let me know if you have any other questions about the install.

You could swap out your third members from the OEM 4:10 to 3:73 from an Fj60, that would give you 10% overdrive. There are some gear options for the transfer case also, talk to Georg at Valley Hybrids.

This looks pretty close at McMaster-Carr https://www.mcmaster.com/24175K51/

I did go with the radiator that's in there because it fits perfectly behind the large intercooler. Also my radiator is berried behind a few things like intercooler, transmission cooler, engine oil cooler, power steering cooler and the Ac condenser. I figured I should give the engine the best...

The om617 is a really good engine, but not for a 60 or an 80 LC. I do have a 40 series with an OM617 engine and an H55 in it and it's pretty nice to drive. Not going to win any races with it, but it will get to where I need to go.

You should look into OM606 a bit deeper before you rule it out as a viable candidate. With an upgraded injector pump ( 7.5mm ) and a larger turbo it can produce close to 500hp and more than enough torque to move the 80s LC and still get way better gas mileage than any gas engine. Just my $.02

Not sure if this will help, but here is what's in it. I think I bought it at Grainger.

This is what I've used on mine. It worked pretty well getting rid of the dirt in the condenser and evaporator.

The The problem is more than likely in your Power Window Relay ( small green box in drivers door ). See red square in wiring diagram. There are two small relays in there that need to be changed.
