Builds 1HZ-T HZJ78 All-Climate Expo Build

[DamoPeru]

1HZ Oil filter adapter with NPT threads for bypass filter intake, oil temperature sensor and oil pressure sensor

 

[DamoPeru]

Better intake pipe arrangements with OEM parts and catch can installed

 

[DamoPeru]

Found a better place and way to install the airhorns

 

[DamoPeru]

Wrapped dump pipe and first section before exhaust brake

 

[DamoPeru]

Process of adapting new H151F box wiring with correct plugs to old R151F wiring.

That must have been a pain ....
Great job .

 

[DamoPeru]

More metal removed....

To fit these...

Settled for two of these for most crank battery accessories, sit very snug in the dead space

Properly waterproof as well

 

[DamoPeru]

Fitted the non flicker units for the LED headlights. There's high density foam on the back and its pressed in place by zip ties... couldn't think of a better and easier way.

Sorry for the lack of updates, life got in the way and have just been rewiring the engine bay and all the accessories on the cranking battery circuit. Have so far managed unique colours for every circuit in each loom so there will be colour coded diagrams and some possibility of troubleshooting and maintenance long after I've forgotten what I did.

This is what colours I managed to source in 10, 12, 14 and 16 AWG, over 50 unique combinations. Not sure if that will be enough for the auxiliary looms but time will tell.

G'Day Fella's,

A massive undertaking Damien but nice to see it being done so well.
Congratulations and it will be nice to be able to take your "Baby" on expedition/Safari and have all the things you require and just as you want them to be.
Happy and Safe Travels.

D'oh!
Homer

Here's the newly routed 4/0 main power cable from the 500amp fuse at the 270amp alternator to a post under the brake booster, which then goes to each 120amp DC-DC charger for each battery type... a completely split system where the alternator can always charge both at once independently and quickly. yet to crank the engine and test charge speed but the most unique part is the crank battery also gets cared for by a DC-DC charger. The 4/0 earth goes straight to the block from the alternator, and again from the other side of the block to both batteries. Edit: now changed, not using a dc-dc charger to crank battery, it wasn't going to play nice with the alternator without modification, so now, from the main post it goes straight to 150amp fuse and to the crank battery and to the rear dc-dc charger. winch relay box now placed where crank battery dc-dc charger was... see later on in thread.

from the engine bay DC-DC charger (redbox), a 2/0 cable loops around to the waterproof 150amp circuit breaker above it and then to the positive terminal Edit: this has been changed...

Found a good spot for all my LED headlight and signal fuses, right on the radiator top bolts. There's one each side. I have the factory wiring running in and then distributed out on individual fused circuits to each bulb.

G'Day Fella's,

Well done Daniel, those sealed/waterproof electrical connectors and fittings, look great.

D'oh!

Geez, with all the dramas with the local shops and what not I think I would have just rented a shop and done the work myself!

Solid build though.

Cheers

 

[renago]

That's pretty much what I have done now... rented a house from a guy who let me knock down a brick wall to fit a 9ft garage door to get the troopy inside and turned it into a workshop

Hopefully they work as well as they look

So you may have seen a big hole near the clutch reservoir in previous pages. I wanted to tuck away the main fuse n relay boxes for the accessories run from the cranker battery, as previously my home made boxes took up a lot of precious space. These have a common positive buss coming from a 100amp waterproof circuit breaker, and to protect the relays both sides are fused. These hold relays and fuses for 10 circuits (5 each):
Fog lights
AFR sensor
Exhaust brake
A circuit to power all engine sensors and gauges
Side mirror motors
Front locker
Rear locker
LED bar
Reverse lights
Engine bay lights

Bit of protection

This is the part of the loom going to those Fuse boxes shown above... I had to remove the door to be able to install everything nicely
