I just bought a 1980 4x4 and if fixing some stuff on it.

I found where to order the weber carb. My first question is where do I get the header? and what was the other part that you needed to add?

I found a guy locally with some spare parts its a 75 though will his tailgate fit? headlight covers?

Last question is how do I tell if its the mikado?

Thanks in advance for all my ignorance lol :)

Header- Pacesetter #1105, check ebay among other places. Make sure to factor shipping into cost. "other part"??
'75 has four headlights, '80 has two. Don't know about tailgate.
Should have a plaque or decal that says "Mikado", they may have factory bucket seats too, it was only a trim level.

Thanks for the help I was on here the other day and someone said there was three things you could do for performance upgrades and I couldn't remember what the last one was though.
