I was just made aware of this thread, and I have to say, Steve, that it's a sad state of affairs that you'd decide to put me on blast on every forum available, and refuse to accept any part of the blame for this situation at all. So let's recap. Our business was the victim of a significant...

Transmission is, yes. Most of the engines are sold.

Yes, we have a great deal of experience with both series trucks: I have a 77 that's on its third body due to some attempted inverted driving. (Do not recommend). I was only referring to the bodies being the same, firewall back. The 78s are 12V native as well versus the 77s 24V system. Much...

Location?

The front clip are interchangeable. The 77 and 78 bodies are the same firewall back. So in this case, it really is just a 77 since everything on it is 77 now. We did a different build where we put the HD nose on a 78 frame and had to make new front frame support for the body, and engine mounts...

We've done a transmission swap to manual from a 95 HD-FT, so now have the A442 transmission with only 75,000 KM (46,500 Miles) on it. Has had the filter changed, fluid swapped and drove perfectly fine prior to the swap. Only removed to make the truck more rad with a H152 5 speed. Comes with...

PM is the best way to get a quick response due to the amount of mail that comes in. We will be receiving a brand new 2021 HZJ79 that will be dismantled for parts, so it will be available to ship within about 3 weeks or so. We also have a plethora of new take off, used ex-mine and other 79...

PM is the best way to get a quick response due to the amount of mail that comes in. We have a plethora of new take off, used ex-mine and other 79 series parts available, especially ones for guys looking to make their own version of a 79 in the USA. As part of this, we will be receiving a...

Sure do.
