Hello,
It is always good to see Kris and Charles.
I think it is time for you to get another 70 Series. Maybe a 77, maybe a 73. Or one of those soft top HZJ70s with factory front and rear lockers.

Off the books currently Juan. Probably won’t go for another LC in the near term until we get closer to first year HZJ76 importation abilities.

So when you have rust and rot in your 70 and you only fix the outer layer....
This is one of many spots on these trucks Toyota layered four layers together.

Installed a new Deluxe Bar and Side Steps/Side Rail setup from ARB yesterday. Wasn't a bad job, just a bit stressful drilling into a brand new bull bar.
Will install new Safari Armax Snorkel next week after the long weekend to get a bit more air into the 1HZ, would love to throw a mild turbo system on there eventually, with a big intercooler. Happy Australia Day weekend everyone! (26th Jan for your USA guys).

Looks great, do you have a part number on the side rails by chance? When I've looked into them it has said something about reusing the stock steps which has confused me, doesn't look like they've remained there?
Do you by any chance know if that is the same bulb for a BJ70, 1987, 24v, 3.4l Diesel?
Had to rebuild my front LH knuckle due to a leak in one of the seals, was making the brakes smell/smoke. Could not have done it myself without the amazing videos from @OTRAMM (You're the man. Keep doing more!).
Also... new shoes. All the split rim syle without the split rim problems .. on BFG A/T 235/75/16.

It'll be the same housing (e.g lens/reflector unit), but you'll need a 24v H4 bulb.
The factory toyota wiring is a bit undersized, so for best results I'd recommend upgrading to a heavy duty loom which just uses the stock wiring to trigger relays. I made my own but you can buy off the shelf looms, just be careful that you use 24v relays.

What wheels are they?
Picked them up from City Racer. He has a few different rare finds.
I folded and tacked up a fancy looking square into round aluminum fan shroud, so I can fit up a hydraulic fan
This is all to avoid spending well over $800 on an LS engine driven fan
I did it the old school way, no computer drawing, I didnt even mark it out, i just rolled a pattern along the sheet and marked where the circle rolled

I bought this thrashed 70 series a few years ago, mostly because it had 2 ARB air lockers, I want to build a decant 4wd. It had a PTO winch and superior engineering drop shackles in the rear. I built a new bull bar and rebuilt the winch, and made some sliders and some bar work And a snorkel I...
