Builds POTM - March, 2014 - Javelina By Pablo Cruise (2 Viewers)

Other things still needed to be done:

• Dealer installed AC
• Replace center dash panel with one that has ground wires, CEL and stereo
• Rear bumper w/ receiver for a small pop-up
• Dare I say it? H55F. There I said it. This item is not in danger of being accomplished any time soon

Still thinking about these items...

You should be... you own a 55, there’s bound to be something that’s not working, needs upgrading, or is still unfinished.
Or maybe strap a canoe on top and take some poser shots so we can all drool

Here's one of me in Moab, just after running Hell's Revenge.

Doesn't everyone have a picture like that? Here is mine from 1976 with an old folbot that my dad bought.

You know how I roll!

Got 1 of my 40 somewhere! With my mini truck parked beside it. I'll try and find it

Great picture, that looks brand new.

Ha ha! Just call me "the little man in the canoe".

 

[RUSH55]

Oh, you’re “that guy”?

 

[PabloCruise]

Sometimes hard to find...

 

[RUSH55]

Just keep searching... don’t stop, don’t stop.

Jebus you two...I’m laughing out loud here!

The folks at Cool Stream have an ID guide for Land Cruiser AC compressors - how cool is that?

Based on the video, and this cool exploded diagram, I need to use the 10p15c compressor:

The shorter body compressor - bottom of the picture is the 10PA...

The good news is that I have the manifold for the compressor I need.
I should be able to transfer this onto a new Denso 10P15C.
Now I need to find ends that will plug into that manifold.
