Still working on the console but I like where its headed. I’ve used it for the past week and it feels good. Currently a hybrid between the 100 and the 60 with room under the 60 console for accessories.

2kw Diesel heater fit nicely in the 60 qp. After sitting on it for the better part of the year I’ve finally got the install wrapped up. With the wireless remote I’ve been warming up the 60 in the morning from the inside the house. I’ve got the intake routed up the d pillar to pull air through the inside vent. Exhaust dumps out directly below.

@orikawa panels finish up the install nicely and give a nice place to mount the controller. My only suggestion would be the Hardware. The m4 screws really need to be about 10mm longer. I had to really push the panel sung to get it to grab the inserts, a few wouldn’t grab and I had to purchase some longer M4 screws.

This is the way. Having an auxiliary heater installed in the truck is a game changer. I’ll get the quarter panel mounted heater in my 80 going again some day. Too many other vehicles to work on and house projects that take priority right now though. I’m also curious about the fuel tank and how you fill it.
 
I wish I could use my quarter panels... That's a great spot for the heater.

Pretty sure the dent in my quarter is what killed my first heater. Nothing will survive in the quarter panel of moonshine. I’m surprised the fuel filler still works. You could still make something work though

Right now it on the swing out. Easy to fill and keep and eye on levels. Not sure it’s permanent but it works well.

In typical fashion, I sat on parts for months and decided to instead of taking advantage of months ahead to install them, l installed them days before I leave to go to GSMTR.

80 master cylinder, 5th gen 4Runner calipers, pads, rotors and ifs hubs along with new inner/outer bearings. Eliminated the wheel spacers and added a few inches to match the rear 80 axle.

Buttoned it up and hit the road to GMSTR. Checked in a Moonshine Motel for a bit. Not much else to report. Since the swap, Both pedals feel good now and very responsive.
