Also on the fence to keep it 24v or or do a 24v start and 12v running like my hdj81

Switch it all to 12v.

I have the SOR repop door panels and headliner and am happy them.

Might want to do a little checking on the door panels before ordering. With your LV I assume being a Canadian import it I believe it wouldn't have had the vinyl covered door panels like US models rather just plain "wood laminate" door panels which were screwed in vs using push tabs on the US style. You may still be able to use the SOR panels without issue as I've never seen a non US LV in person to compare. Check with SOR I bet they will know.

Love your LV

Thnx guys! It was my understanding all 12hts were 24v??? That's why I was thinking of wiring it like my 81.....

Also looking for info on lvs in Canada. Can't seem to find any numbers on how many we got and when?

Thnx Dan

You can use the starter and alternator from a 2H and there is a 12v VSV you would need that is still available from Toyota.

All our hj60s in Canada are 24v

So title can change to good from far but far from good. Finally had a chance to put the lv on the lift to look it over. Yuk!! I'm thinking of pulling the shotty soa selling off the front cable locker axle to fund an emu kit. Anyways on with the shottyness

Some people should not touch a vehicle! That is some scary stuff, I like the emu idea! Spector has oem spring hangers, I would strip it all and start fresh with proper spring mounts!

I'm actually thinking of getting a bj60 kit. I can put all the hangers back to stock using the big eye stuff, keep the rear 60 cable axle and use a bj42 axle I the front

So how to I remove the window lock??

 

[kunzma]

Small pin on the handle side that you have to punch out.

 

[crawlin cruiser]

Ok thnx!

Little more progress or lack there of.. getting ready to get the glass done. But first I'm sanding down the s***ty white paint and prepping for a re spray. Between the windshield frame and the roof I assume this seam should be sealed?? Also what is this cavern at the top of the a-pillar drip rail?

Thnx Dan

 

[crawlin cruiser]

Back at work on the lv..... somehow this was missed and went to paint???? Pretty sad

 

[offkilter]

Any updates on this ?

 

[crawlin cruiser]

I repaired the windshield frame, took a bit to get through the previous shotty repair and all the factory lead work haha. I still have to zap the spot weld holes..

 

[offkilter]

Good to see some progress and hope to view this in person someday. Keep up the good work

 

[crawlin cruiser]

Finally got some stuff done.. heading to glass shop

 

[wngrog]

[crawlin cruiser]
