What did you do on your 70 series today? (87 Viewers)

Do you have two batteries? That twin compressor is big and heavy! Nice job fitting it in there.

After a 6 week wait to be shipped from somewhere overseas, a pair of hella 24v 15amp fused relays arrived. I will use these to wire the fog lights and LED light bar in the engine bay, then run a big wire to a subpanel back in the cargo area for all the other wiring and electrical needs.

Last minute decision to load up the Cruiser and head south 500 miles to the sand dunes in Rexburg Idaho

A few of my output studs on my output flange were all buggered up. I'm getting a bit tired and lazy.



New parts ready to install.

And I was not happy with the aftermarket hose clamps on the PS Low side hoses, so new ones were procured. I love these guys.

Wood shims and duct tape, while not as shiny, will also work.

Just hit 77 kilometers in the 77!!

This is not an amazing barn find. I had to do inspection and the 1HZ is so fast it broke the speedo needle off. $300 out of the fun budget

Well, recently got these

and when I went to replace them, much to my chagrin, I found this on the passenger side

Needless to say it couldn't be effectively be replaced so I just "freshened up" the old one and put it back together until new vent dividers can be sourced.
While I had the previously butchered door panel off, I partially solved the cab storage issue by installing a door pocket to the panel I rescued from the salvage yard. It turned out okay. Had it been a perfect door panel, there is no way I would have done this. And I will eventually replace the door panels but until then I have an extra space to put more small junk.

And it should compliment this new addition quite nicely.

Spent the day fitting some air horns behind the grill.
I'm going to fit a switch to have the beep horn for friendly waves etc.

But the sleepers who have no clue how to drive will get the 120 db with the international single finger. I'm very compassionate regarding our old timers so I wont give them much air time.

Just stopped by Toyota to order a new front pipe... $170usd

Just did the LED interior light upgrade that was introduced to us through 1978HJ45. The difference is literally night and day. Pics taken in garage under zero light conditions

They look good; where did you get them from?

 

[ozcrusier]

They are new old stock made in Italy but the pump needed work after sitting for many years. These are very similar but would need flat black paint
