[jsimmons]

the "transition period"

 

[jsimmons]

from 10/87 -1/88 power windows/mirrors were an option. After 1/88 all "should" be fully powered but I ahve a customer wiht a 11/88 that is manual. <ost all manuals have thw harness in place for power. Easy swap

I like mine without all that power crap. Less gremlins to wrestle with on down the road. Plus I get a nice arm work out trying to crank the window all the way down.

I with you SCJO06 .. those are a huge problem always ..

I was told that power windows and locks were an option for the 1988 model year, however, most came with the option.

My power windows and locks are very convenient, but I am swapping them out as part of my build-up, just to make the rig more spartan.

My 88 62 has manual locks and windows....


Love it

My 88 '62 doesn't have power either, and I like it that way.

Why the heck anyone would want manual locks is beyond me...in the 62's I've had, never had a problem with power windows that wasn't surmountable without parts purchase.

my 62's an '88, data plate say manufactured in nov of 87. only power option on it is the antenna. windows and locks powered by me..................no problem

Yep, mine is manual too (08/87) and wouldn't add power if I could.

Any interior shots???

 

[chukardog]

yeah the power windows and locks from Toyota are pretty bullet proof. Super easy to fix should they ever break. I would add them if I ever came upon the stuff cheap

I converted my '88 from power to manual windows. I can't stand power windows. They are slow and I hate to have the key in the ignition to open or close the windows. Power locks are good, though, I left them on.

 

[goldchaser]

im with herbert,i could do without the power wndows but the power locks are a good thing when ya got 5 doors to lock!
cheers goldchaser

 

[chukardog]

theyre slow becuse you need new window guides

I hate the power windows tooo .. are nice for a fancy car .. but not for off road .. I change mines from poer to manual .. and I love manuals .. on the trail.

What's involved in the switch? Door panels, window regulator, cranks???
