when the shocks are junk hold rod with vice grips There is a special little Gem of a tool called a nut spliter made to drop on the nut you turn a thred rod pushing the nut in to a wedge spliting it . or cut the nuts off hammer and Chisel i have done that also . with some good gloves wrap a good haksaw blad ie lennex brand one end with tape and cut nut off tor the nut ant top of stud. old shocks are well known for difficult and dirty too remove for me i am leary of thorches ie fire maybe a sawsall. works great on muffler.

MY dig looks maybe the under cabnet light inside right behind the outside light. soo with the 400 there should be two tables. From the pictures i dont see a nd discutions on here the 400 seems to be kind of rare. but not as rare as my 1978 minimax onl y FOUR known too ext maker and place not known . Ijust sold the old minimax see on my profile.

ONE of the grounds org used standing in front on right rear corner of the head should be a black wire from block to firewall. in your case i dont think this is the big problem but it should be on there. you could have a problem in the wiring for the regulator that could say regulator when it is the wires to the regulator. on the 1977 78 you could get and use eather the mechinacl or solid state type. for i dont know . about your year. i had a grage once put the wrong alteranter and reg on a Datsun i had came with a 6o amp and they put on a 35 amp and the wrong reg the charge light was on the alt was not even the same case size. and that car was picky no after market xternal regulaters ever worked on it only a genuine Datsun factory one they said they would work it fit but they did not work.

I have owned 7 toyot a s Five carbs two 22re efi . Converting a carb vecule to efi would be very hard the carb does not have the computor stuff the efi injecton is very Complex. THE22r carb has more power then the older 20R carb .WHY do you not want a carb. Four Of myn were the older 20r stock 95 hp i have a 78 20r with a webber carb gives a little more power. 18 ft moter home, NONE OF THESE MOTER HOMES ARE BUILT FOR SPEED the 4 speed stick will take you anywhere. THAT IS ABOUT SAME AS MY MINIMAX YOUR HUNTSMAN

I would make all attempts to use POLYURATHNE BUSHINGS .they work better last far better and are totaly better than comon rubber parts last almost forever.

BACK IN THE DAY those external regulators were mechcanical and later solid state Bos ch made good non solid state type. ihave had brand new solid state that were no good and they are more easly damaged tTHE curict for charging TWO batterys is Different with a external reg you should go too a Auto ELETRIC shop BY 1983 they may have only used solid state did you by that used i under stand cost issues But tested still doesent mean its right sory.

THE bleed valve is down on the slave cylinder on the trans mission. if you have too people one too push the pedel one undertoo bleed down through the slave. IT can be done by one person by gravity bleeding the slave then hand pump clutch pedal check fluid leval freq. until you get a hard pedal.
