    prado seats in a 60?

    good point, I didn't measure vertical height. Can't this just be easy?

    prado seats in a 60?

    uughhh, yes that may be possible. Interesting idea in fact but sounds like work! the prado rears aren't quite as wide, but the full width of the 60 seats don't quite get used anyway IMO because of the way the wheel wells carve into that space.

    prado seats in a 60?

    I can get some seats out of a 1990 prado and I'm hoping the fronts will fit in my 60 especially because they have suspension. But I'm wondering about the rears. the backseat is a little different, but the price is right and i want some headrests and shoulder belts back there. I also want...

    Solar Converter - Final Setup.

    my dad wired mine up with a 24v relay so that it only comes on with accesories or full ignition. that way it's not load balencing when you're not driving it. However an issue I have had greg, is that the little pot screw that sets your load balance will over time, especially with a diesel...

    thinking of selling...

    thanks for all the advice guys, and you are right, i could probably never get what i need out of it anyways. Some guy just about hit a semi while trying to ask my wife if she would sell him her truck, they were both driving at the time. She thinks he was from iran. you just don't get that...

    thinking of selling...

    it's in good shape actually, engine is perfect, t/c makes a little noise on deceleration in 4x4 so i should probably rebuild it. had a quote for about 1500. this year i dropped a lot on it you know..complete cooling system, wheel bearings, drums rotors. after awhile it starts feeling like a...

    thinking of selling...

    i know i know. But lately i've been thinking that this truck is not going to last forever. I have cable lockers, 5-speed, 6 cyl diesel, and 216k. Either i sell it now while i still can...or, i'm in for the long haul. When do you draw the line? I've been looking at 5.7 tundra crew cabs. I...

    Cable lockers

    they're pretty cool, but there is a little modification involved because the cables are designed to be pulled from under the passenger seat of your vehicle b/c they came from a RHD. so a shaft has to be added to the base of the handle.....I paid someone else to do it...that way they get to fix...

    headlight woes

    oh man is this your lucky day!!!!! My dad is an electronics technician and full time genius and it took us 2 days to figure this out. One of the problems we came across is that there were only 11 000 of these trucks with that headlight system ever released from what I was told, in any case...

    Diesel - Winter starting

    that was what i was wondering. I started my truck the other day at an honest -34C in Cold Lake, and then realized that the other end of my block heater extension cord wasn't actually plugged into the house. I sort of cringed when I realized it, but it was pretty cool that it actually...

    Am I $&*$@; 24 Volt Battery Connection

    I live in alberta and i have an hj60 24v. A little while ago my truck was complaining about starting - usually it starts immediately - but it was cranking kinda slow for a couple days and finally it just about didn't start at all. My main voltage gauge read normal, but i have a secondary...

    what's it worth?

    I know, I know. But what about trying to get parts? That was kind of the beauty of this truck is I can drive down the street and buy OEM everything. We're planning to move to Cambodia or Vietnam, if it was Peru I'd just drive it. What does it cost to ship a vehicle?

    what's it worth?

    sometime in the next year I'm thinking of selling my 1986 Canadian spec. HJ60. It runs great, has a/c and the 5-speed, new paint, 2.5 inch exhaust, 33" Mickey Thompsons, cable lockers, an arb bullbar, custom rear bumper(no tire carrier), rock sliders, 2" old man emu, solar converter...

    ram air

    HA! A hood scoop.....mind you someone here in the diesel section has one for his intercooler or something. I dunno, maybe it's a stupid idea i just thought some extra airflow might help.

    ram air

    I just posted this exact paragraph in the 60 forum so disregard it if you have already passed on your wisdom over there!!:) Has any genius out there come up with an effective custom ram air? I don't want a snorkel and i don't want K&N. I'm just curious if anyone has played around with trying...

    ram air

    Has any genius out there come up with an effective custom ram air? I don't want a snorkel and i don't want K&N. I'm just curious if anyone has played around with trying to use a bigger air hose or different placement of the intake or something. And of course, is there a noticable difference...

    roof chop, lead sled style!

    Is your hj60 Canadian? I've been trying to track down an accurate wiring schematic for that truck but it's difficult since particularly the headlight wiring was different in Canada. If you have anything or know where to find it I would greatly appreciate it.
