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...

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!

And if he can’t trust it anymore, I’ll come write a check this week :)

The owner is blessed to have you as his ‘mechanic’… Christmas Eve Eve, and making house calls… impressive!

Ok guys, back with a few photos. I haven’t been able to spend any time in the shop this week but I wanted to answer a few questions to keep the ball rolling; It does have a fan shroud, and a new water pump.

Wow! Didn’t know there was an app for my phone… I have the factory 4 speed transmission

I’m running 33x10.50 tires. I’m assuming I have 3.70 gears being a ‘79 How could I verify the Dakota digital gauges being correct / incorrect?

Beautiful build…glad you’re sticking with it!

Good evening! Wondering what type of water temperature you guys are seeing on a hot summer day, cruising between 65 and 72 mph? Mine seems to hit 220F but stabilize and not go above; at 55-60 she runs 180-190F Assuming this is ok, wanted to be sure; 1979 FJ40, 33’s w/ Stock 2F with Weber...

Congratulations on the purchase. I look forward to seeing it around town. I work in Charlotte, but live in Clover South Carolina.

As I was working on the Cruiser yesterday, I noticed that one of my front clip bolts was missing. See attached picture. Made me wonder if I even had the correct bolts in there from the get-go. Is the torx bolt the correct factory bolt? If so, I’ll work on tracking down a second bolt. Thanks!
