The entire dash changed in 87 with the square headlights, the dash looks much better and is rounded. Fairly similar to the 80 series dash.Nev62 wrote:Does any one have pics of 60, 62 and 80 series interiors? I'm trying to find the differences between the models apart from the single and duel headlights between the 60 and 62, and the rounder body shape between the 62 and 80.
cheers
my std 89 has a tacoBJH wrote:The 80-84 (i think) don't have the little pics of the truck showing you the angle your driving on. Std trucks don't get a taco either. I have a std 82 and can post some pics if you like? I can also get some of a 96 DX as i will be picking up my new ride tomorrow arov!!!!!
I didnt think dx's in the 80 series had tacho's. As far as i am aware, pre 1994 povo packs were known as standards. Most of them were vinyl with no tacho. However, you could option them with the gxl dash with tacho, and sub fuel gauge and altimeter on the roof. The dx as a model didnt exist during this time. Post 1994, the standard was replaced with the dx. It was a povo pack with no tacho and no factory option for it. (i could be wrong) The RV spec was designed to take place of the optionable standard model.BJH wrote:ok.... do you know if someone put it in afer? I have heard all models have the wiring for it so it should be an easy mod. i was looking at a std 96 b4 i found the 96dx i decided on and it didn't have a taco? the DX does, but its a full size taco opsite the speedo. If Nev and others are interested i will post some pics when i get it.
Yep would be interested, thanks. When it comes to yotas, I'm a complete novice. Looks like I'm going down the cruiser track (almost, a couple of things are not quit like yota had intendedBJH wrote:ok.... do you know if someone put it in afer?

My interior (1984 HJ60 G pack) is the same as Joel HJ60's apart from the 4wd actuator. I don't have the button on the dash (vaccum actuation), I have the standard transfer case shifter with H2-H4 and L4.Nev62 wrote:So I guess it was only the upper models that got the angle meters (not that I could ever see any use for them). I like the idea of the tach in the centre of the dash, it seems a tad small though. Is it still clear and easy to see at a quick glance?
I look at the tacho all the time. When the stereo is going how else do you know when to change?Nev62 wrote:So I guess it was only the upper models that got the angle meters (not that I could ever see any use for them).

Quite the opposite, you can just feel when it need to be changed.Shadow wrote:I look at the tacho all the time.

it would really suck to have a diesel without a tacho
The yota I'm getting should make it's peak at around 1700RPM with max HP at around 3400RPM. The tach is what I will be driving off a lot until I get use to the beastyjoel HJ60 wrote:Quite the opposite, you can just feel when it need to be changed.Shadow wrote:I look at the tacho all the time.

Are you buying an import 12ht 60 series? The vx sahara imports have an ice maker centre console, suspension sports seats and an altimeter on the roof next to the sunroof controls, like in the 80 series gxl. Many of them also come with factory cable lockers.Nev62 wrote:The yota I'm getting should make it's peak at around 1700RPM with max HP at around 3400RPM.

Nope, it is a FJ62 (88 model) with lockers, winch, 33"s, GTI seats and 6.5l V8 dieselcarts wrote:
