Edit: looks like a K series engine 77. Looks like the typical aftermarket steering wheel so assuming JDM ( they like black paint too).
How close am I?
How close am I?
Edit edit: nope... Probably a Hz engine... Just noticed the front shackles. I thought I saw control arms, but that was the back half of the leaf springs...

Yep! HZJ77. It’s a JDM.
Just found your ad (swear I didn't look before my guessing!). If Georg says is good then you got a good deal. Pumps can be rebuilt, as can t cases.
I think I have an HZ air con compressor on the shelf with Georg. I could have it sent down to you if you need one to run the truck while you find someone to service your current one. I think they are not voltage specific, but you'd have to ask Georg to make sure.
Let me know. I also have a rebuilt pump on the shelf too if you haven't rebuilt yours yet.

Oh, and I run a turboed HZ if you have any questions.

I really appreciate this. I'm kind of beat up after going through all this. Spent more than was planning to and am actually seriously considering if it should be in someone else's hands. I did ask Georg to tell me straight up if this was a good rig and he thought it was.
I think at this stage I'm still at the diagnosis part. At first there was a loud squeak coming from the belt area. Georg thinks it might just be the bearing in the clutch. As the belt is also now loose. But I'm not a gearhead by any means. I do know that the AC isn't blowing cold.

Ah I'm out of town so I will miss today's meeting, but I will be there on 8/1.
I monkeyed around with it myself and I did fix the issue. The belt was new and I think loosened a bit with all the driving I've been doing. I just had to tighten it! Look at me!!!
But I did decide overall that the cruiser won't work out for our family right now and will be putting it up for sale. When I get back into town you'll see it on Mud. It was all my fault for jumping in with two feet into a 70 series. The lack of airbags and two 4-yr olds at home bothered me a lot more than I thought it would. But I hope to snag a newer cruiser or 4runner to stay in the gang.

This about sums up my experience (although, y'all did warn me!)
