i have outfitted the GHOST with a NOS OEM QUAD-HORNS set up ,

you can ONLY ever upgrade to 4 horns on any vintage toyota due to fused circuit specs and wire gauge ...........

i installed the 2 NOS units in this OLD promo TECH video .......

i then install the other 2 : NOS 1978 FJ55 LOW TONE matching part numbers

- all horns are DIAPHRAM TONE HORNS


- 3 LOW's / 1 HIGH

it has the TONE of a Fright Trane Locomotive CSX GP35 Main Line ENGINE

During the last few weeks I scooped up what I would consider my OEM-DREAM-Wheels / Rims

The 16” 70 Series wagons ..

- I have settled on the final details I think

- OEM CHROME solid achorns closed cap lug nuts

- NO rear center caps due to my full floating axle , gonna Jazz that up , the outer HUBS with BLiNG outer assy. Hardware when start the SNOW-VERSON rear differential replacement due to the current one exploding while driving it less then 30 miles my first 72 hours of ownership ….

That’s a story and the both rear aftermarket aluminum rims coming off too for a different time …

I simply am happy to be still alive honestly


I am currently researching the whole how big or close can I get to a 33” tall BFG all terrains or mud terrains. Based on the factory wheel width of x6JJ ?

I don’t want to exceed the safety limits and have a bead pop on or off road and well die ?

Not yet anyway …

Too Many NLA / Disc. OEM part numbers to be reproducing and the list gets ever longer day by day it seams …..

while my main focus now on GHOST is the full flaoting rear axle stand alone TECH thread , i scooped up these over the holidays from Northern Europe non-usa far away TOYOTA place ......


i have in no uncertain terms wanted these and waited for these style and PURE YELLOW JDM GLASS KOITO's my entire life since first seeing them in a grainy color SOR.com paper print media what ever flyer or mailer of the week back in the day ...


i have no clue what part # these are but that will not last for long .....

but who really cares ?

all that matters to me is there FULL on Skunk-Works transformation and restoration is underway now as we speak

and i hope to have the worlds first set of PURE YELLOW OPTION GLASS JDM Kustom KOITo LED .

i will be shooting for the approx. 4000K range , but not sure if installing a 8000K or a pure yellow 4000K DIODES set up /

bulbs which one will best achieve the most color temperature lumens im looking for ?

there are 2 variations of this realm of KOITo's i am aware or a more common AMBER 'ish variety , who's glass has almost a orange'y maple syrup color tone , then my PURE JDM variety ,

the JDM PURE YELLOW color KOITo JIS Glass is far more un-common for some reason , and not something i see often at all ?

maybe that's why i wanted so badly for so long ?

maybe it was and no long is / are a MUST HAVE for me ?


i can't believe i just said that publicly

well it's true , i must have things too once in a while , so that makes me a " MUST HAVE " that Must Have , his must

haves like all the other " MUST HAVES " here on MUD , like @devo , the most must have , MUST HAVE i know ...



here are some initial R&D images , prior to full on disassembly , this is a PURE YELLOW LED kit / bulb installed ....fyi

i have not tried the 8000K approach yet , but i fear a white HOT SPOT effect , so we shall see there ?
