I’d love to have that sitting in my driveway...although it would ultimately have its own dedicated covered spot...I appreciate the detail that has gone into this. I’ll take the Land Cruiser out if I wanna get really deep into the woods, this would be my beach cruiser!!

Thanks my friend I always appreciate when people take time out of there day to throw some positive vibes my way. And funny you should mention beach cruiser because unbeknownst to most that is exactly what inspired the color scheme.  I live in California ( I know I know nice weather but it’s going to hell in a hand basket ) but the whole golden beaches and bright teal blue seas and white caps thing that everyone associates with California was how I came up with the overall idea you see here. Nobody really asks why I did it and my good buddy’s that know always give me a hard time about it. They dubbed it the Land Yacht way back when I first started it haha. ?

She would fit right in here...I live on the Emerald Coast with sugar white sands and those colors just work! This pic is 20 minutes from my house...tell me those colors don’t cry out for your truck ? (Destin, Florida)

Absolutely beautiful my friend! I’d love to go park it out there with a cooler of cold ones and a line in the water!

Yes Sir lol...1976 yellow with white top. Sitting in a friend’s garage, I have no room here. It needs some work. 4.2 getting a rebuild this summer. My Mom bought it new, I learned to drive a standard on that truck...

LOL, had two, 93 and 97, favorite was my blk 97, second day of ownership I had old man emu lift, Borla exhaust, custom engine mods and paint, safari rack with 10 lights, pop out Alpine nav stereo and so much more installed ....etc etc. Houston Tx, hottest land cruiser in town! God, I miss that thing. Now, I’m thinking of running out and buying a new one.

I only go to rosemary beach home rentals but mostly Greek Islands. Florida is for when I can’t really get away and then my wife starts yelling at me “you’re not behaving like you want to be here” DUH!

Way more than mine! I don’t even have A/C but lots of memories, driving cross country from Oregon to Florida through Texas towing a Uhaul and NO A/C ?

Really liking those cab lights, your the first guy i've seen with those ones..  Did you install them yourself?  Seem to have quite a few functions, Whats the wiring look like?  Only video I've found about them is the one on their website showing some flash patterns.

 

 

I had them installed professionally. The strobing cab lights come with the wiring. They wired them to go on with the parking lights, and if you look at the picture of the center console, you can see the switch next to the edge tuner.  I am less implressed with the switch given the thin wires come out the side and the top. I am considering moving the switch to under the compartment cover (red striped thing) covering the bucket in the center console.

I'm still a bit unclear exactly how they work.  the only video I find of them is on their site which shows like 21 different flash patterns.  Are they like other real emergency light sticks (traffic advisors) where they have separate wires to enable the modes?   Or is it more like the cheaper ebay emergency lights where its basically one switch turns it on and the other switch cycles through the different patterns with no easy way to jump to certain modes?

 

You say yours come on with the park lights, I'm assuming that they just come on steady amber.  What do your other 2 switches do when you push them?

      Gas fill door

      By newdude · Posted

      Common failure.  You need to replace the fuel door housing.   The painted cover transfers over to the new housing.  To remove the old one there is 4 spots where you poke the plastic to release it.

      Gasser Subforum Has Been Quiet - - So, Regenerative Braking and Using L10

      By newdude · Posted

      No such thing as regenerative braking on a pure ICE vehicle.     Regenerative braking is the re-capture of energy from electric motors and stores it in the battery pack.  So hybrids, PHEV and EVs have regenerative braking.     What you are seeing is the charging system changing modes is all.  Its likely entering charge mode for some sort of reason is all.  All of the charging modes will be listed below.   As for L10 vs D.  L10 turns off automatic grade braking.  L10 puts you in control of grade downshifts where in D it will automatically do it based on brake pedal position and other factors.  Otherwise L10 and D drive exactly the same aside from that one aspect.    Battery Sulfation Mode The BCM will enter this mode when the interpreted Generator output voltage is less than 13.2 V for 45 minutes. When this condition exists the BCM will enter Charge Mode for 2–3 minutes. The BCM will then determine which mode to enter depending on voltage requirements.   Charge Mode The BCM will enter Charge Mode when ever one of the following conditions are met:   Windshield wipers are ON for more than 3 s. Climate Control Voltage Boost Mode Request is true, as sensed by the HVAC control module via serial data. High speed cooling fan, rear defogger, and HVAC high speed blower operation can cause the BCM to enter the Charge Mode. The estimated battery temperature is less than 0°C (32°F). Battery State of Charge is less than 80%. Vehicle speed is greater than 145 km/h (90 mph) A current sensor malfunction exists. System voltage is determined to be below 12.56 V When any one of these conditions is met, the system will set targeted generator output voltage to a charging voltage between 13.9–15.5 V, depending on the battery state of charge and estimated battery temperature.   Fuel Economy Mode The BCM will enter Fuel Economy Mode when the estimated battery temperature is at least 0°C (32°F) but less than or equal to 80°C (176°F), the calculated battery current is less than 15 A and greater than −8 A, and the battery state-of-charge is greater than or equal to 80%. Its targeted generator output voltage is the open circuit voltage of the battery and can be between 12.5–13.1 V. When fuel economy mode is active, the generator is not charging, only maintaining open circuit battery voltage. The BCM will exit this mode and enter Charge Mode when any of the conditions described above are present.   Headlamp Mode The BCM will enter Headlamp Mode when ever the head lamps are ON (high or low beams). Voltage will be regulated between 13.9–14.5 V.   Start Up Mode When the engine is started the BCM sets a targeted generator output voltage of 14.5 V for 30 s.   Tow/Haul Mode (if applicable) Pressing the Tow/Haul Mode button located on the center stack, the vehicle system voltage is raised and the remote (non-vehicle) battery will be charged. Having the headlamps on will raise the system voltage and if the Tow/Haul button is applied it will not serve any purpose. The voltage is regulated between 13.9-14.5 V.

      Active Grille Delete

      Hello from Australia Just sharing that there is now a way to delete the active shutters entirely with just a plug in module. Opens up tons of room to light bars etc.

      Gasser Subforum Has Been Quiet - - So, Regenerative Braking and Using L10

      By jake111 · Posted

      I have an observation and a question... 1) I watch the voltage closely because I have had to dial in the cut-in/cut-out voltages of the battery separator to my camper.  The "smart" charging drives me nuts.  Anyway, I noticed that when coasting for a while, and especially if lightly using the brakes (though not necessary), the voltage goes up from mid/high-13 volts to mid/high-14 volts.  Then it drops back down after stopping or going again.  Consistently!   The only explanation I can come up with is REGENERATIVE BRAKING!  Well, maybe that's a little bit of an exaggeration, but it's certainly free extra battery charging.   2) Driving on mountain roads I will use L and vary the max gear.  Things straighten out and I end up in L10.  Sometimes I leave it there for a while.  Is there any difference between L10 and D?
