Eh swap sides with the birds and they'll be fine.

So.....what's gonna happen to the 1hd-ft?

It will find a new home. Had a lot of interest in it.

Dash and cab harnesses out.

This is all of it from the donor other than the small h151 harness.

Manual vs auto brake pedal assemblies.

Clutch pedal assembly

Sunday fun day!

There is an entire LHD HDJ80 body wiring harness, minus doors. It washed up alright, still work to do on it though.

And there we have it...

Body, front clip and engine bay harnesses. Sure looks better than the wad that came out. Now to fix it up!

This is way better than what was attempted prior to it arriving at your shop. Way. Way. Way. Better.

Absolutely.

Fun stuff!

We had planned to use the wiring harnesses from the HDJ80 donor truck we have here. They are to trashed to make it worth it or the time sink into it. So we are harvesting what we need and want from the diesel harnesses and moving them over to the FZJ80 harnesses.

Here is the 1HDFT ECU.

We thought we got lucky and it was good to go but once we flipped it over we found this. We have got to repair this circuit board now.

We have got the FT engine bay harness and ECU now plugged into the FZJ80 dash harness.

What's the deal with the dual vent tube on the transmission?

What's the deal with the dual vent tube on the transmission?

One tube to the transfer case and the other goes to top of bellhousing. I believe it’s just a vent.

Got all four Morel’s fitted to the doors, it takes some custom trimming to fit these.

HDJ80 ECU circuit repaired.

Silver powder coated parts back.

Nobody will ever see this but it also won’t rust. In case you don’t know this is raw steel from Toyota.

[SNLC]

Probably doesn’t look like it but making tons of progress on this.
