Ok, I have a couple of exciting noob questions. I have a 1982 Toyota 4WD pickup that did not have a jack kit. I found a full kit with the pouch that hold the tools. Is this supposed to be located behind one of the seats? My truck has no mounting hardware. Also, I have the long bar with the hook on the end. I believe this is what is used to lower the spare tire. Where does this tool go? Next question, I’m currently looking for some mud guards. My truck has two mounting holes for the rear guards. There are no other mounting holes or brackets on the rear fender wells. Is this correct? Or is there supposed to be another support for the the guards to screw in to? I’m trying to make sure I’m not missing some mounting supports. All help is appreciated, thanks.

I was brought up in Fords. Drove them for years. But slowly I moved to Toyotas. I own 4 right now. The “Yoter” will be mine until I die. Wife will have a very close to original classic she can sell and get some spending money lol. Thanks again

I got the gauges installed. I used the original wiring harnesses from a set of gauges I bought online. I spliced the new gauges to the old wiring harnesses. This worked perfectly. No alterations or damage to my truck wiring. And I can go back to original gauges if ever desired. Equus brand gauges Thanks Moses for your willingness to help

Hi Moses, I received my new gauges. I decided to buy some original gauges and cut the wiring harness off of them and install the harnesses on my new gauges. I did this because I wanted to keep a set of working original gauges for the truck just in case I wanted to go back to the originals. This cost me extra but I’m a little anal about keeping things neat and clean. So if I sell the truck or want to go back to OEM in this instance then it is a easy swap. I appreciate your willingness to help! Hope you have a blessed new year

Thank Moses for your quick response. I’m learning this as I go. I haven’t purchased the gauges yet because I was not confident that this could be done without cutting the existing wiring, however I am moving forward and ordering the kit. I will respond once I receive the kit. Thanks again

I’m wanting to install new electrical oil pressure and voltage aftermarket gauges in my 1982 Toyota 4WD Hilux. Only one deal breaker. I do not want to cut any existing wires. Anyone with any experience/information would be appreciated, thanks
