Thanks Minipigg, that is exactly what I am doing. Actually I am reusing the stock 55 bellhousing, transmission, and transfer case instead of mating up the '81 FJ40 set-up. This will keep a lot of things stock and easier to deal with, ie. emergency brake drum set-up, driveshaft lengths, etc. I am also swapping all the 55 engine stuff onto the '81 donor engine in order to make things hook-up easier.
