OME766 springs are the ones for the Isuzu, and approx 50mm lift over standard springs.

Progress report

Rear quarters in place with Gullwings fitted, seatbox and floors all fitted and everything attached

I also finished off the watercooling for the turbo, I'm hoping its going to work. I've put the taps in so it's possible to isolate the heater core

I have 5 doors sitting there all painted up, just waiting for some hinges to be painted so I can bolt them on and fit it all out

The roof is painted and I'll be picking it up tomorrow

Just realised it's been a while since an update, my laptop died and I had a mates wedding and bucks party to attend.

Sorry only had a chance for one photo

Picked up the 255's and bolted them on, roof on, headlights rewired with H/D relay, interior fully fitted, doors all bolted on - just need winder mechanisms fitted. It's now in at the intercooler place getting the intercooler and intake system made up. He is also doing the A/C hoses and his auto electrician is wiring up the A/C. Turned out to be a bit of a hair brainer with the Td5 A/C unit requiring input and output signals from the ECU. Finger crossed we can get it up and running.

Currently modifying the radiator mounts as we've have to space it back about 25mm to fit the intercooler and A/C condensor in. Getting pretty sqeezy in the front nose cone area

Hi Jock, great thread, will be an awsome 110 when finished. I see your fitting AC from a td5 and are having electrical problems. Do you know what the issues are and the fixes? I'm also about to fit a td5 defender AC into my 84 isuzu 130 and would greatly appreciate any tips! The only td5 bit I will be using is the whole under dash unit.

Cheers,
Andrew.

No major drama's I hope. The thermistor in the Td5 A/C units sends a signal to the ECU which then switches the A/C clutch and fans on as required. We are just hooking the fans up so they come on with the clutch and hoping the thermistor sends out a positive or negative voltage that we can use to switch a relay. I'll get the sparky to put his mods on a schematic when we get it working

Thanks Jock, hope it all works. A schematic drawing would be very much appreciated once your sparky sorts it all out. Watching with interest.

Cheers, Andrew.

Couple of photos to keep you interested

Intercooler made and mounted, and with the condenser in place as well

Hoping I won't have any overheating issues, it is quite a thick cooling pack. The front grill only just fits on

Next stop fuel screw
