I just might have the “adapter” you’re looking for. Text me tomorrow and we’ll see if it’ll work.
 
Awesome evening tonight doing a little wheeling with my boys. We did 33Kms almost all on dirt. That’s right, new speedo cable, swapped the gears around in my odometer and it’s all working now!

Aired down to 20psi front and 15 rear from about 33. Wow, really nice on on corrugate/washboards. Only one real challenging obstacle, and she ran right up.

I need to clearance my transfer shift hole a bit more as it really won’t stay in 4lo. The tilt of the bellhousing has it out of whack a bit all the way at the end of the throw.

Man, I love this thing!

Using my super cool new timing tool, I got my tachometer dialed in. It uses a strobe light just like a gasser, and I know it’s probably not perfectly accurate, but my timing isn’t spot on. It jumped around a little bit.

Have a plan together for my spare tire attachment for my spare tire swing out. Need to order some steel plate. Little things coming along!
 
Got the cruiser out in the wild tonight with the boys:

Also I think this is the first time I’ve driven it at night. Oh man the stock headlights haha!

This is one of the best values Toyota offers to upgrade your head lights. Usually less than $25 from your Toyota dealer and easy to install. Most folks shorten the harness a bit. Plug the part # in the search function within this section.

Those are a great deal, but I’m planning to just swap over the city racer LEDs from my 40. It’s currently sitting on the rack and who knows when I’ll get back to it.

I’ve also had some ditch light brackets from AVR customs and a really nice pair of Baja designs pods in my shop for years, just need to install and wire them up!

Those are nice brackets.
