Well done.
 
If one may ask, about how much are you in that upgrade? Panels and table assy.
 
I bet you could adapt an Airbus tray table.......:lol:
 
Very slick!

The tables are very functional and while pricey, I don't think you will regret the investment over time. The manufacture of the tables is an old Wasatch Cruiser club member, has a 100 Series himself... really dig his product.
 
...These came as Toyota Factory option in some limited edition FZJ71's in Venezuela (2006 or 2007 I believe) and are not very easy to find. They are locally referred as "Aniversario" or anniversary, only 300 made and they have a numbered badge on the glove box lid that reads as 001/300 and so.

Is that an extra bracket where the e-lock switch is? Or is it part of the moulded dash?

I am sticking e-locker(s) in my BJ74 and will be using the factory switch like that and would love to mount it in a factory manner like this. Anybody got info on this? Is this a factory bracket that could be added on mine....?
 
Since Greg has returned the E7 trucks to Utah at the conclusion of the trip and they are museun pieces now, perhaps I couild get my hands on one of the tables......:hmm:



Let us know how that works out. See if you can sneak the Sherpa out for a week or two as well :D

@theferg The e-lock switch is mounted on a separate pod, and the pod is then fastened to the metal dash with only one or two screws (if I remember correctly).

www.Cruiserparts.net carries the little pod in "oak" color for about $15 and according to their website the part number is 55432-60090-E0. Maybe Onur (beno) or Dan (cruiserdan) can source it for you, and find it in gray or oak, based on what trim you need.

Hope this helps!

Just had to look at those door panels and that table again, that just looks so clean. Have you had a chance to drive around a bit with the table back there? Any rattles? My guess would be no, but just wondering.
 
Very cool. Thanks for the info @AlbertoSD. My first order of business this morning was going to be hitting up parts diags i have access to. :) You've def saved me a bit of searching. Now to just find it in gray.

By the way, love your build here. Very cool rig.

And that trip to Angel Falls....wow! I went there in '05 and took the tourist option of flying in to Canaima. Makes me want to go back and try it the fun way. :)

I have driven the 70 with the table in the back and there are no rattles from the table at all. Very happy with the set-up.

Happy to help and I'm glad you are enjoying the thread.

I agree with you on the Angel Falls trip. The place itself (both, Canaima and Angel Falls) are magical on its own, and the trip to make it there and back on Land Cruisers made it even better.
