There’s a mechanical speedometer cable bullet/gear setup for 70 series HF1a’s, the 60 speedometer cable will bolt up to it. I have the parts at my shop for when I put a HF2a into my FJ62, I can post the part numbers Monday. Bump me if i forget

This is not even 25% of what was wrong with this Cruiser… literally every bolt hole/fastener on the entire chassis/suspension is messed up I didn’t talk to the owner much but he mentioned he never really drove it above 30mph.. I don’t blame him. It’s all getting fixed and will drive perfectly...

I should have a few dozen sets of good used split case gears, and several sets of brand new ones. As well as all gaskets, bearings etc of course.

Your support is greatly appreciated :)

Thanks for the order Larry! For anyone else that doesn’t know we have virtually all service parts for Land cruiser models 40/60/70/80/100 in stock at all times now. Even if it’s just an oil filter or $2 shift pivot bushing, please consider my shop for your parts needs as even the smallest sales...

Both of those are H55f compatible.. you wouldn’t need any special input gear to use either case, however a long-spline upgrade wouldn’t be a bad idea with the wear on that output shaft. You would want to tap/plug the extra bolt hole in the manual-shift case front half to use with H55f. are you...

Most likely the same thing (Set #3) Right now I have other things that need money and no immediate next wheeling trip plans other than Uwharrie in April for Relic Run (be there!!) which I definitely don’t need 37’s for, so might be a while.

Laid up in bed with a massive flu this week and realized I never posted anything from my trip to Virginia for Fall Crawl last month. Overall 10/10 trip, I went up a day early and hung with OTRAMM for the day and picked up a bunch of knowledge, got to visit my friend Jonas at Barnyard again...

I’ve got new OEM housings and water pump hardware. I can throw them in with your distributor order easily. Of course we have all the other gaskets/seals etc you need as well

Getting kinda off in the weeds from the original thread, but basically you’re making a bunch of power (high boost/timing/cylinder pressure) and you shift at too low of an RPM the slower engine speed after the shift can put a more force into the rotating assembly, whereas if you shift at a higher...

No, that just avoids potential compressor surge Big RPM drop under boost isn’t as big of a deal with a manual transmission since boost typically goes during the shift since there’s momentarily no load. That’s why like for like an automatic will typically be faster then a manual with boost

I’d recommend springing for a new distributor if you want to stay points, the old ones are usually worn out or close to it.

If you end up wanting lower gears later, you could always go to an Orion which would be a bolt-in. Or you could swap to a split case with 3:1 or 4:1 low which wouldn’t be a very difficult swap.

Looks like regular US spec carb to me. I should have the correct rebuild kit in stock, along with anything else you need to get it back on the road
