Test fitted the ft the other day fits well just a couple tweaks and it should be good. Need to get the engine bay cleaned up and a coat of paint now.

These are the mounts believe they are from a hzj troopy

So far I have changed out the the petrol wiring harness and put a desiel hz harness in. The engine mounts have been changed to desiel mounts aswell. The previous owner who started the conversion has done those.

So I bought this 86 Fj73 as a project which the young bloke had started to convert to 1hz. I am ditching hz and putting 1hd ft in it with a h55f box.

Thanks for the reply snlc. From what have been able to find and read the h55f should do the job. Once you start playing with performance stuff longevity decreases to some extent. Will have to check out your build thread sounds like a beast.

Yeah it is a 105 in the back ground :cool:

Picked up my 1hd ft the other day. Pretty happy with it. Just got to get in now. Which brings me to a question. I believe I have a h55f from a mid 90s hzj troops. Will the h55f handle the beefed up 1hdft?

So I went to see the importer the other day. Put my name down for 1hdft when the container comes in hopefully end of month.

Its a little darker than the original but very close.

Its a manual and thankyou

Good day all. Just joined the mud forum so this is my first post. I have a fj73 1986 mwb which I brought recently as project. Looking at converting it to 1hdft.
