I’m interested in just the mounting plate for the 8274. I have a CCOT HFS Bumper, not intended for Winch , and I would like to cut a Fairlead mount for an 8274 in the bumper, and weld your plate on the backside, to mount the winch. Any issues with that? Would you sell just the plate? Thanks...

The welds wouldn’t bother me… and if there was an issue, it would be easily fixed

I actually wouldn’t worry about that at all, or bend a piece of flat strap around it, and weld it completely around the edge if you’re concerned

Great info! And thank you!

Thank you so much!

Thank you! Any straight on views? I’d like to see how much of a ‘gap’ there is without the lip. Thanks!!

I’m looking for a ‘69 Bezel with the stamped LandCruiser Has anyone used one of these made out of fiberglass? https://landcruiserspecialties.com/product/pre-79-40-series-fiberglass-landcruiser-embossed-bezel/

Guys— I wanted to follow up and let you know what I found. The constant power wire had a break somewhere; I fixed that, running a new hot wire, and upgraded the ground while there. There is a constant red blinking light on the control box…. If it’s not blinking, you don’t have constant power...

Bringing this back to the top; I’m looking for one… any good sources right now? Thanks!

You got this! I’ve made a 200+mile trip several times, and routinely drive 100+ miles in a day

Is the swap a decent upgrade from stock ‘79 calipers? Better performance?

Any details on this swap? I’d like to swap my fronts; ‘79 cruiser — just did a rear caliper upgrade to disc brakes

OK – – can’t figure out what’s happening with my gauges. Fuses check out good, the gauges are plugged in appropriately. I’m not an electrical genius, unfortunately. I pulled the Dakota digital gauges out, and heard some rattling. A few of the small Phillips head screws, inside the gauge...

Subscribed! Cool find…. Looking forward to the story.

Merry Christmas from Clover, SC. It’s 14* F here this morning! I’m planning to drive the cruiser to church this morning!
