WOW, just WOW...

 

[Pighead]

That is very nice

 

[Slapshot]

Very nice! Looks like it just came off of the showroom floor.

 

[Hungale]

modified from 24 to 12V and installed 1KZT engine.
Also fitted are HJ61 differential locks

Beautiful…Nicely done.

@Hungale what transmission are you running? Crossmember looks to far back for a H41/H42/H55F. Is that a 60 series or 70 series steering column? Cover looks like a 60 series but never seen 70 one from a 70 series? What steering box are you running? I'm really interested what handles your using to operate the cable lockers. Some would say the customisation is already well under way. Everything looks very professionally done.

I used the 70 transmission, modified the 4x4 actuator from pneumatic to lever.
To install the engine and gearbox, the engine mounts need to be redone and the cross member that supports the gearbox moved backwards.
The cardan shaft needs to be shorter.
The power steering is from 70 as is the steering column.
I redid the entire electrical system to be 12v and compatible with the engine and light switches, indicators, etc. the wiper motor and blower have been rewound to be 12v
The mechanical winch is also installed.
As for the differential locks, I haven't installed the actuators yet, I don't know whether to do them with cables with internal levers or with air pistons.

Any chance you could post more photos of the routing of exhaust further forward?

Clearly you ran it outside the frame but I am wondering where it initially crosses outside frame rail and what the clearances look like

the exhaust pipe passes exactly where the original one passed. Only the final part comes out straight behind without going on the left side.
If you need photos I'll send them to you

The engine exhaust is on the right; from there, the pipe runs under the footboard support, staying outside the frame. At the rear, it passes between the leaf spring and the frame, goes over the axle, then turns to the left. The barrel is in the center, it continues all the way to the left, and exits between the leaf spring and the frame, heading towards the rear.
