thanks! yeah i looked through all the threads before coming up with a plan, including yours! i was wondering, are the rear seat latch mounts the same on the 60 vs. 62? i am guessing yes, but realize there may be some discrepancies between years... yeah, i am working on a camper that offered me...

thanks for all the feedback... yeah, will be mounting a few things back there, fire extinguisher & maybe a pouch of some sort. if it was steel, i might think about mounting my hi-lift on it, but not sure the aluminum would hold up well bouncing down the road with that much weight.

thanks... i did ask a neighbor friend of mine, who is a fabricator that works in aluminum quite a bit, if he'd be interested in professionally reproducing my template. he has too many projects going right now. i too have too many projects going, otherwise i'd be looking at building a jig and...

the finished product... it also gave me an excuse to purchase the rear seat belts from SOR... which was the only way i could figure out how to find the correct bolt for the seatbelt nuts...

i used the same 1/4" X 3/4" aluminum bar to tie into the rear seat latch mounts... and the same for the upper mounts that attach to the rear shoulder seat belt anchors.

the aluminum is pretty easy to bend and weld. requires straight Argon gas and clean stainless steel brushes. it really needs to be clean to get a good weld. like i said, i'm a novice, so don't judge my work too harshly... this is function over aesthetics.

hey there- just wanted to share for the group, a simple way to build a cargo barrier. i didn't want a chincy "pet barrier" i was looking for something to protect the kids from the tool box, dog, tote, etc... and i couldn't find anything in my price range that looked substantial so... i bought...

swap motors to a chevy 350 and you'll have all sorts of room under the hood! ...sorry, i realize that's completely UNhelpful, just couldn't resist. :flipoff2: & i have a headlight harness coming too! looking forward to that upgrade...

once i raised my motor with the additional bushings on the motor mounts i was able to remove the crossmember spacers. there is only a 1/4-1/2 inch of space between the top of the t-case and the underbody, but it seems to work. i still have the toyota mount that i'd like to get installed one day...

well, if i get to it before you have this thing running, i will let you know what i find... is the sensor adjustable or does it just seat once the threads are tightened? and did AA have anything to say about spacing? i can't imaging it takes much to pick up a signal...

are you planning on using the OEM crossmember and mount under the adapter? if so, i would use the rear crossmember to locate the motor mounts... assemble motor-trans-adapter-tcase, mount it to the rear crossmember and bolt up the crossmember. this will locate the front motor mounts and save you...

the crossover pipe is from a late 60's chevy pick up... here's a thread: SBC RamHorn Exhaust i may have to swap my JTR speed sensor with that AC Delco one into the AA adapter. that's a much cleaner solution and at this point, i'm not sure why i went with the JTR one? that seemed to be the...

you should call Marlin about theirs too... they might have some intel on 4 pulse vs. 2 pulse. someone recently posted to the TLC facebook page about an Isuzu Trooper VSS that fits but says it is also 4 pulse. He was going to use it for a 350 TBI motor in an FJ40: Log into Facebook | Facebook...

hey there... most of the pictures are blocked out for me. not sure what's up with that? i was wondering about pictures of your exhaust set up, are you running two catalytic converter's? did you "y" over to the driver side from the manifolds under the oil pan and run the two CC's parallel to...

hey there... looks like you're committed now! there's not much clearance, but just enough on the front DS. you'll need to locate the motor to the driver side. also, i don't think those exhaust manifolds will work? but that's the least of your worries! did you decide on a wiring harness...
