Here is the hardware I used. Only had to drill a small hole.

Thanks to Tinker! Got the pot installed on the shifter. I used a countersunk Phillips and a small 1/4 high torque nut. Along with a recessed “domed” washer that fit perfect. Was in my hardware him from my days as an aircraft mechanic. Worked great!!
What is this "pot" used for? I don't recall seeing it in any previous discussions.
Slang for potentiometer, it is used to get the dash PRND lights to illuminate. It is part of a a Dakota digital kit GS-3000. It also can provide power to your back up lights and provide a ground for your neutral safety switch (NSS) all of which was provide by the Toyota trans. It’s optional if you don’t care about your dash lights.
You’ll need to hook up
The Rev dash light wire to the back up light position.

I know it's not a Land cruiser but the shop doing my LS swap is finishing up this Bronco. I really do like the old Broncos and this one just got a new ford crate motor, 6 speed straight shift and a bunch of other upgrades. They are currently swapping 5 vehicles at this time, fun place to visit.

What shop? Near you?
Doesn't have a website or social page but here is a video they made about him.

Perfectl thx
No url and no social media sounds like my kind of place.
Got an A/C wiring question. Seems pretty good, leave the toyota system alone, take the 12v signal from the toyota system and apply it to the GM compressor clutch. Let the toyota system work its magic. I believe at least. Question is on a Gen 3, blue/red pcm, I know I want to run the same 12v ac request signal to pin 17 on red connector, for idle up and hoping that will trip an electrical fan to come up by outputting a ground on pin 33 red connector. Im hoping that is how that should all work. I recently came across that you may have to ground pin 55 red connector, which was a feedback loop saying all the GM pressure switches were good and at correct psi, and to go ahead and turn on a/c. Can anyone confirm any of this>??
You want the gm ecu to turn on and off the compressor. Otherwise you'll kill compressors due to the high rpm capability of the LS motor.
Ok makes sense, so send the a/c request to the PCM from the toyota, instead of straight to the ac clutch. I assume, Ill need to tie into some of the other pressure switches as well? Use the ac clutch out from the pcm to control power to the clutch via a relay. Did you tie into anywhere else?
I don't remember exactly how I wired it. I think I sat down with the gm and toyota wiring diagram and made my own wiring diagram based on the two. But yes I think you have the principle idea. If I had to do it again however I would wire it up so the radiator fan runs at full voltage at low speed and full voltage at high speed. Low speed doesn't cool the condenser very well.

Did you use Goat Built p/n 4421?
Ii have similar brake line clearance issues and hate the truck PS pump reservoir.
Great Video!
Thanks,

Yes that is the bracket I used. It's a c5/c6 power steering pump and the pulley is General Motors 12568997... The pulley is larger than goatbuilt intended, and I'm not sure how it will work (if it will reduce power too much). The belt was kind of a pain to size and is a K060882. PSC has some other pulleys and there is a 5.75 available for the vettes, trail gear also makes a pulley but not sure what is best just yet.

Post up pictures of your clearance issue?
if you really want a remote reservoir I would just use the GM remote reservoir pump on the OEM bracket, that way your belt drive stays OEM... the best the for long term reliability. All the Express Van pumps are remote reservoir. You can usually go with a 1" smaller pulley with the stock belt as well. Which will also boost steering performance.
What unit from DD are you running?
Can someone please help. 5.3 in 92 Land Cruiser, 96% done. Fires right up, computer programed, revs great, and transmission will not shift after 1st gear. No second, no 3rd ,4th. What could be wrong? The speed sensor is on the adapter kit, Marks 4wd

It is really tight, The reservior is alittle too close to the steering box for my liking, I did not know about the express van PS pumps this may help in my situation since the 3FE has the forward engine mounts that were cut off and brake lines in the way. however this will be remedied later with some re-routing. I will have wait until I have time to bolt the accessory drive up again to take a picture since I took it back off to change my water pump.
