Wasn’t this a reverse engineer of Dustin’s NV4500-HF2A adapter?
Ah I gotcha. Once Dustin figured it out it was so “simple,” as far as adapters, that it was only a matter of time until someone figured they could do it cheaper. That and his reputation are prob why Dustin quit making them.
Hey everyone. I now stock the plates and shafts required for this conversion. First run of plates are $300 each and shafts are $350. PM for details. I am in process on building some bolt in motor mounts that will require no welding or frame modification as well. I’ll post up when those are ready...should be about six weeks.
I’m hoping to be able to use the stock one like I did in my first build. The swap I am currently doing is a ppump motor (first was a VE) so I’ll have to check and make sure everything still lines up ok. Unfortunately I won’t be able to get back on the project for a month or so ☹
Yessir. As I recall I think I shortened the lower radiator inlet as well. I wasn’t thrilled to do it that way but the trade off of doing an oddball AC mount system didn’t seem worth it to me. I double clamped and it never gave me problems.You just use a reducer on the radiator?
just shot you a pmDoes anyone who "machined" a plate possibly have one to sell,? if so PM me, I have an idea that isn't using a cummins or NV4500, but I'd like a plate to "tinker" with. Thanks
I used 3”x3” tubing to adapt to the cross member. I think I’m going to lower it a bit so I need to find some 3”x2”. The NV4500 trans mount fits perfectly in the crossmember so I chose to adapt to that instead of modifying the crossmember like others have done.Has anyone come up with a trans mount bracket for the NV4500 and OEM FZJ80 crossmember? How about 6BT engine mounts?
