Hey guys and gals,
I am an expat from the US that lives in Nepal, and I have purchased a 1992 LJ78 EX from another expat in Kathmandu. We are super excited and thankful to have found this vehicle in such great shape. My family and I were evacuated back to the States back in April due to Covid to have our second child, but we'll be heading back to Nepal in late January. I have read almost every article regarding the 78 and know what I am getting into. The plus is that in Nepal I won't really ever get over 70kph. I do want to take every precaution of getting and keeping this engine as cool as possible. I am not a gear head at all, but excited to learn. I also have a well known LC mechanic over there that I can depend on if needed. Y'all have done an incredible job laying out that path for everybody regarding the ends and outs of this engine, and I appreciate it a ton.
My question is more on the aftermarket wishlists. Shipping items to Nepal as an expat is difficult, so I am wanting to take as many items over with me when we go back. What are the small after thought items that y'all love you have or wish you had? I'm talking everything from a cup holder to lighting to the best jerry can rack you know of. Leave no thought behind. Let me hear all the wish lists!!!!
Again, really appreciate this group, and thankful I found it.
Merry Christmas,
JH
