I'm using American Autowire harness kit, and they supply GM type connectors (guess I just use them).
Thanks again.

I like them. Use them in 3 different vehicles so far.Cool - Let me know how you like the AA harness.
We are at about the same point. I am wrapping up the instrument cluster now. I have Temp, Fuel, and Turn signals working . Plan on doing Oil and spedo today. Not sure what I will do with the Am meter.I like them. Use them in 3 different vehicles so far.
The wiring on my FJ40 is almost done, except for the column connections, and misc odds/ends
Yes. I have the plugs from the AA kit for column mounted ignition switch, but I don't have the actual column switch that those plugs plug into. I have a bunch of Delphi connectors that I'll use instead. My FJ40 is more of a resto mod, nothing is original other than the body (although most of the panels had been replaced).We are at about the same point. I am wrapping up the instrument cluster now.

Did you / Can you figure that last one out?
Sorry I do not have it. They scavanged the manifold flange, and the down pipe had several splices in itYou didn't happen to have the old exhaust? With the first piece of pipe and almost stock from the CAT back pretty well have my 79 FJ40 figured out. My 45 on the other hand I don't. It's a 65 with a 2F. Has a header and exhaust run between the transfer case and frame then out in front of the rear wheel. Have a late model spare tire carrier with the winch. I even had some OEM style exhaust.hangers.
I’m in the throws of a bad brake problem that does not appear to have a painless solution.
But life goes on:
Got the front doors finished, new OEM antenna, the OEM carb was a no go so I got a City racer, out of the box started right up, I need to tune it when I can get her outside.
Made some sparks, a crank to lower the spare tire, and made a jerry can rack, not OEM, but it will work and captures the spirit of OEM, just need to find some cotton webbing and buckle’s

Did not check - I’ll take a look seeWasn't the OEM rod to lower spare available anymore? It was same 1005MM one used on the late FJ55s. I bought for my FJ45 years ago. Unfortunately Amayama's diagram aren't working for me the last couple of days to look up the number.
