Thanks, Alberto, I first went in that direction (to deal with tachometer compatibility) and wanted to use this cluster for the indicator lights, but the wiring harness (it is an ECM truck, I think) is later than my 73, so we went a different direction as below..

Will re-purpose the original light panel to the left of the new locker switch - using the former "filter" and "pre-heat" lights for "Check Engine" and "Diff Lock" indicators. Tor knows a guy who can do up a red panel to fit behind the cover lense.

Good choice, Ward!

This is how my friend Robert in Venezuela wired his ARB lockers

I went to Clarke Rubber and brought a sheet of 6mm inversion rubber to knock up a larger set of front mud flaps for the cruiser.

I will cut the bolt holes straight up with a Stanley knife in case I back over a rock or log this way the flap will pull free instead of trying to tear the guard off the truck.

There are a row in the East that are moderately well prepared as well ;)
 
I'm gonna go with CDAn's collection.... Whenever in doubt, get to @cruiserdan's house when the fit hits the shan.
We talking weapons AND winches, I assume?

I was referring to this model, which is going on the 73. Tor bot a few of them pretty right.

So here's something cool:

My STD 70 did not come with grab bars for the DS nor for the front A pillar.

I had some 60 series grab bars sitting around so I said what the heck...


Direct fit!! Score. They are only available in gray but don't look bad.

And new upper window runs for the front doors:

I am wondering how hard it is to get the soft top back on (or even off)? I have not yet attempted to do this myself on my own soft top.

I do roll up the sides though. Really nice when the weather is cool.
 
Thanks for the advice. Maybe someday I will attempt to remove it just to say I did it.
