Marilu Upgrades Ver. 2009

[Tapage]

Thanks mates .. maybe the next year proyect are the ARB's with 4.88 and the front bumper .. or maybe first the bumper and then the axles .. I'm not sure ..

I would love to send my Tencha to USA and drive Tellico .. ( my dream ) I hope one day can do ..

BTW driving my 80 manual it's big fun compared to driving she when was auto ..

Man that's a sexy truck!! I always wondered what was involved in a manual tranny swap in an 80.

thanks ..

puntual things that you must need to make it work ..

1. tranny

2. shifter ( or at least to me .. I don't want to make adaptations in this stuff )

3. Flywheel

4. Pressure plate and disk

5. master and slave ( no adaptations here .. but should be posible )

6. pedals ( no adaptations here for my standards but should be posible too )

very nice job, you should be proud.

The winch POSITIVE wire needs to go on the TOP POSITIVE terminal of the Optima battery. The side terminals are not made for high amps.

Cheers.

I can't even find a weekend to do my front axles!

awesome!

turned out sweet! I have the H151, and wish I had the lower first gear. Oh well... i'm not complaining.

Hey, one note... connecting the winch to the side-post of a battery can lead to melting the battery. The side post is connected to the top-post internally, by a pretty thin piece of metal.

well done David!!! Looks good!

I have to save this website, couse I love Lady Marilu and got plans to do the same whit the tranny in Bamse! Link to my norwegian webgarage:Bamse
I like the rear bumper idea, I have to find a good welderfrend..
I got the orginal clutch from the 12v, but looking for it from the 24v. Who Isuzumodel got the right dim for the 1HD-T engine?
Got you in favorites now!

I'm not sure about the Isuzu model .. but it's from a NPR DI 4.3 truck .. IIRC but with the part number there is no chance to get the wrong part .

I saw your 80 .. looks you've been busy those days with all upgrades ..

Awesome- manual diesel 80!

Thanks .. I like the 4 squares coz you can make 'em all function at time ..

So can you use the Isuzu clutch on the 1HZ?

Yes .. as long as you use the H150 tranny .. actually Isuzu have 275mm and 300mm 21 splines disk ..

Wow! Nice work on the ole' cruiser...Lots of great pics too. Thanks for sharing... Now, let's see some fun in the mud pics!lol.... That is what you are known for here on MUD!

thanks .. I don' think you gonna see any mud pic of Marilu soon .. she's my mall queen .. for the hard, mud dirty job it's Tencha ..

A job well done indeed, I really believe that Land Cruisers were meant to use manual trannies, it just isn't as much fun with an auto .

Deberias postear esto en cruiserheads chamo, tremenda adaptacion que le hiciste a Marilu .

As we already know this it's a never end road .. so I ( again thanks Tito ! ) source a nice factory Toyota winch bumper connector .. and didn't miss the chance to install it .. along with a killer swith that cut the V at the winch .. ( non approoved use )

Dash interior switch ..

bumper connector . ( only with this pic realize that miss a screw .. I will fix it ASAP )

overall view ..
