wow... you probably said somewhere in thread before but how high is the lift?!

It’s 3 inch with suspension and 2 inch body

For some reason the pedal was way off almost glued to the floor this gave me luck this more no juice fab a small spacer

Still have no light but managed to get the dash and dome working the LED is very strong love it

If anyone has a picture of the fusible link connector there’s 3 plug along one black and one blue I searching if any of these connector would be related

Found a donor truck for my engine project this way I will not stop using my rig for another. 32 months! I will check if the frame has damaged rust or only the surface since this is a mine truck! Good Hydraulic hand brake to salvage and heater blower in the cabinet

Legends,

Made a quick test today with the new HZJ78 wire floor and new HZJ79 back light harness and it work light came on! Although I need to try to connect the sub tank to see if this alternative works!

Then will have to continue by connecting doom lights
Wiper motor
Back liquid washer
Defogger

Still in the process of removing the front harness from the HZJ79 so clean up et hook up potentially

 

[mt72]

With the help of my Friend Nick found the main problem for my headlight, ELECTRIQUE problem No fusible link with function box we pull the wiring diagram! Meantime stripping the mining rig

 

[mt72]

While salvaging the HZJ79 i found a coolant heater in the cabin the hook up goes like this coolant In coolant out here’s the connection

 

[mt72]

This was a big job!

Bad week-end after doing a longer test drive ended up snapping the pignon and damaging the crown ring of the center diff after examining we had not installed the crush sleeve

Learn and live

I will be using the HzJ79 ring and pinion to reassemble I am hopeful the front is not damaged too but will have to rebuild as well
Ordered new kit for both …

 

[mt72]

Wrong assumption we did put the crush sleeve bearing destroyed

 

[mt72]

Took the crown ring out with no problem comparing to the last time with see how that goes withe the doner oil bearing are fine but the other are dead

He's been super lazy lately. I did charge all of the camera batteries over the weekend just in case.
