Took a while, but finally got the my BJ74 (aka Righty) back on the road after the alternator gave out. One day, the Battery and Filter light came on and I noticed the voltage slowly dropping as I drove. Luckily I wasn't far from my garage, so I didn't get stranded. After poking around with the multimeter, I determined in fact the alternator was not putting out much...like 0.

After some research here, came up with nothing, so tried a few local alternator shops and found one (Broadway Electric in Lemon Grove, CA) who have experience with these and were willing to work on it. They came through in the end, but took some time which I suppose is to be expected.

In the mean time, I got distracted by a trip to Ghana to do some Land Cruiser spotting

Several weeks later...

Back up and running (you'll have to use your imagination...too lazy to upload a video!)

Now am just waiting on @ToyotaMatt for a fusible link I ordered many weeks ago...nudge nudge! With that Right's electrical system will be back in tip top shape!

Following up on this...

@ToyotaMatt came through with the fusible links I ordered (Thanks Matt!). One installed, one kept as a spare I'll likely never need.

Looking good straight out of the box

^^ Ill take the one on the front
Just send me your etransfer details and ill send you my shipping address
kidding not kidding
I need a 73 or 74 in the worst way 😁
 
Went out to a mate's place and had a look at a cab there for parts... yep, there's some of the bits I need... And then when we came back into town, they had a look at where I was up to with the SWB here, and we've decided a weekend day should get the engine in and running.

I trust these guys with their Land Cruiser knowledge, I think the list of their Land Cruisers is something like this:
2x 80 series (1x HD-FT, 1x HZJ)
1x HZj75
1x HJ75 that works
2x HJ75 for parts
1x HJ47 with a 12H-T (daily driver for 35 years or so, with a full load of tools on the back as a service ute)
2x HJ47
1x HJ45
1x BJ40
I think that's everything, oh and an early 1980s Hilux

On my list, too. But I have trouble finding the alternative part no, as my original is discontinued, and make sure those have the E-numbers on it. Yours have it.
Can you share the part numbers, please?
Thanks Ralf

Guys, Trying to complete this knuckle rebuild/brakes/manual hub conversion on the 97' hzj73. I want to get these brakes correct. Old caliper and pad settup in the pics are the dirty ones, new is shiny. Question, do I use the old spring plate on the new settup, or the new pad spreading thin wire spring the caliper came with? Second question. Do I use shims pictured with the old settup and transfer to the new pad, or do I assume if the pad didn't come with these shims it doesn't get them? New stuff is in lower pic. It's funny how this small stuff can hold up a project. I'm anal and trying to get this right. Thanks in advance.

Sean

That truck is looking so good!!

New paint on the FRP? I am considering repainting mine, just want to run down a correct off white paint code and the part numbers for new weatherstrip.

Any information you could share on either?

I recently got all the seals for my one (BJ73 FRP top 1985) from amayama:
Toyota 6315190K02 Seal, Roof Panel Reinforcement The seal over the windscreen on the edge of the plastic
Toyota 6316390K01 Seal, Roof Panel Reinforcement, Side 2pce The seals over the doors.
Toyota 6656990K01 Seal, Roll Over Panel, Lh This seal goes between the rollcage and the body. The RH side, 66559-90K01 is called out to be discontinued. There might be a superseded PzN, but I was unable to trace it down.
Toyota 6316190K01 Weatherstrip, Roof The main seal between body and FRP Top, going all the way Lh side, up door pillar, over lh door, a cross windshield, over rh door, down door pillar, all the way Rh side.
Good Luck Ralf

Took my oldest son who turns 18 in a week, and graduates this year for a 1 on 1 snowboarding trip in the rockies with his old man.
We went to kicking horse in Golden which is about a 3hr drive for us
1000000255.jpg

We stopped at the Roger's pass for a quick stretch along the way.
1000000263.jpg

Not a lot of snow at the pass for February, but I think we had some of the best snow conditions in the province as it snowed a whole 3 inches the night before. Still less than ideal, but not bad considering the lack of snow and icy conditions at most of the other hills within driving distance.

We stuck with the top half of the mountain and enjoyed ourselves, and the opportunity to connect before he finishes high school and heads off to university.

Not NLA. If you talk to a person it’s superseded to a different PN.
