    Fuso actually makes a pretty good world wide truck. Since Overlanding really took off about 5 years ago, the 4wd versions are scarce. You can import one, and there are brokers that specialize in getting them. Seemed like too much of a hassle for too little truck. I view the 4 cylinder diesels as...

    Keep it simple or you will spend a fortune. The FUSO is not a very strong truck. The 4WD are harder to find too. The reason I shared this video is not for the truck, but for the home-made composite cabin.

    RV builders take note of this video. Lots of info. to glean. Before you make comments of the way it should be done, watch the professionals who actually do it.

    Ok, let me save you some time. I contacted the factory where it is made in France. It is a rare part. Most are European trucks. No, the Steyr version won't work either. Totally different wiring. Do it your way and video it. I'll watch it.

    No the date code indicate it was made last year. This is NOT surplus. This switch is used in other vehicles.

    Not worth arguing. These are plastic and old. As in 20+ years in many cases. You must have lots of time. Spend your hours redoing it. I don't have the time. I will spend the $$ and in 15 minutes I'm back in action for another 20 years.

    The turn signal stalk does not break. The internal components fail and short. My time is money. $200 for a component known to fail and leave you stranded with no lights on the highway in 11 lanes of traffic. No brainer.... By the way, don't forget the blackout circuits, dual voltages...

    LOL obviously someone who know very little about these issues. The switch control wipers, washer, horn, headlights, flash to pass, and turn signals. Yeah, it will take you hours to figure out the wiring, even with the TM. Yeah, I looked at exactly what you suggest. Not practical. If you think...

    $199 from Rome Truck Parts in Georgia. Buy it now or buy it later, but it will fail in time and it is a total PITA.

    No, the stalk on the steering column. It controls the horn, wipers, turn signals, and headlights.

    Don't worry about the air of hydraulic pump. It is a piece of crap anyway. Just make sure the manual pump works. I don't think you need a diesel mechanic as much as a heavy truck mechanic. Someone who can look at the the air brake system.

    Lots of non-running GP vehicles get shipped. If it breaks and it's too much, just ship it and rent a car.
