Coo-ee and welcome - This forum is awesome (I too am a noob).

My experience in addition to this forum is some youtubers - like

1. 40 Channel (in your neck of the woods - well country - Australia is quite large too) and looks like they just did a drive for charity with a bunch of 40s and a long drive, anyway -
2. Lone Wolf Works
3. Project Wrong Way
4. Toyapat Restorations
5. Jaffa Adventures (not just 40 series but tips and tricks along the way)

Anyway - if you haven't looked around there yet, maybe this will help find content that helps you outside this forum.

Cheers

So I purchased a complete 60 series front diff today for the disc brake assembly so will be 1 of my bigger jobs to start with then power steering steering is like it's made for Arnold Schwarzenegger

I will go searching soon but I was going to use 80 series master cylinder and booster.
If any one has done and has advice please comment.

Did remove a lot of excessive unused wiring today from behind the dash and fitted some good second hand door cards.pretty productive day.
And some cleaning

My son made some drink holders for me.
