    RHD to LHD Refresh

    I got myself an old gen2 swb Japanese unit and already converted to LHD from the previous owner.

    Most of the wires have need modded to reach the left side and many of then had been done in haste and resulted in poor contacts and loose connections.

    The A/C blower and evaporator too had been entirely replace with a Toyota unit and the air ducting was in shambles.

    I've done about 70% of the electricals repairing the joints and soldering them for a secure contact.

    I am now working on making a new ducting system form the right side to the middle and the driver's vent area.

      You are perfectly right on!

      On this the nuts and bolts have loosen on the steering box to chassis, and the steering was wobbly when I got it. At first look they seemed tight and secured, but when I drove it the car would wander from lane to lane hahaha.

      Fixed now with a new set of bolts and nuts and a welded over steel plate over the chassis for the steering box platform.
