What bar is this off? 80 series?
Mate its a The Dakar deluxe winch bar for the 60. It has adjustable mounting heights to suit HJ/FJ60 from standard to 2" body lift........And Hj61/FJ62 from standard to 2" body lift. Only thing is if you fit it to a standard 61/62 it will cover the stock factory indicators...... Im not sure if they have changed that but mine had a 2" body lift and the bar was on the lowest holes. Beautiful bar.........by far my favorite. It fitted my 240 XGT's without any mods

aaaah ok. I've got an old-school ARB winch bar for mine and its slightly different to your old one. Time for an upgrade I think! The centre upright on mine are a lot closer together, and its a tight squeeze for spotties.
Mate, it's just in good nick. I paid $4K for it 12 months ago off a farm worker's wife in Dalby. Only 2 owners previous to me. There may have been a slight respray on the gutters after rustproofing, but otherwise it is clean and straight.
As for the springs, they are the next major purchase to be built into the budget.
Picture this with white sunnies, and that's how I bought it....
Latest edition to my family of toyotas......
Should i dual cab this one??????

Sweet as NQcalais... Mine was neat as when I bought it (and the same colour as yours) and I kept it like that for a couple of years but now it's got a coulpe of battle scars but still a clean truck..
Keep it wagolis Denny although your old blue dual cab was so cool I would have definately owned it....

"tributo 60 series" awesome stuff!
I'm not quitting drinking, I'm retiring at the top of my game - sporting comeback likely.
Nice rig Jason, beige rocks!!! Jealous of that 12HT though....
I had that same decal on my 75 Series ute years ago. Never got around to taking it off, and it did make it a fraction easier to identify my ute out in a carpark full of white 75 utes.....
Finally got the lift kit fitted to mine.... OME Heavies in the front, Mediums in the rear and OME Sport shocks and damper. Much improved ride quality and height and I can get rid of the extended shackles which made it handle pretty ordinary..... but they were RED after all.......
but you can work them.

but still a clean truck..
