The 4L60E has arrived. I'm now waiting for a VS Commodore Series 2 V8 engine loom and ECU (this ECU will be a spare as I already have one), and an NVRAM from PCM Hacking so I can tune the engine. Have to register an old VC Commodore tomorrow so funds are a little short for the next few weeks or...

Thanks Sadam, very helpful. My 4L60E arrived yesterday, and hopefully my engine loom and NVRAM will arrive early next week so I'll be working on the old girl in the coming month between my normal day routines. I'll check the transfer case while I'm at it but I'm pretty sure it is the 2nd pic...

The vehicle is a 1989 FJ75 Troopcarrier. It is the last year of the 3F from what I have been told. I know that Toyota made various changes on the 1990 model but I don't know if that affected the drivetrain apart from the engines. So I'm assuming the transfer is the same as the other pre 1990 75...

I'm going to start looking for a PTO and winch for my 75 series Troopcarrier and was wondering if PTOs and winches for other models will fit? Does anyone know if there are PTOs and winches that fit 75s from other models?

I love Chargers, I love F bodies too. 2nd Gen are my pick but they are all great machines. It's a pity no one has done 75 cabs in fibreglass like they have the old 40-47 series. Lightweight and no more rust, hmmm good business opportunity there methinks.

Great thread and work on the cruiser. I've never even considered taking the entire dash out to repaint it. I might do that when I rewire mine. 1 question if I may, what is the other car in the shed? Camaro/Firebird, Charger? I can't quite tell but it looks like there are quarter windows so that...

I've just bought a 4L60E to fit behind my engine. Now I need to spend nearly 4 times as much to get an adaptor to fit the transfer case to the auto. I will probably beef up the auto because the troopy can get heavy when it is packed for a trip.

No problem

As soon as is humanly possible. The clue is in the word "stroker". LS1s are not strokers, the HSV 350 (HSV never produced a 355) are a stroker. Thanks, I miss driving the big girl but when funds permit she'll get back on the road and the 1 finger salute will be shared again.

Until the mice ate my EFI loom my 75 series troopy was my daily driver from 2001 till 2012 with a small break when I was doing the engine swap in 2003. They aren't comfortable by any stretch of the imagination. They don;t handle all that well (I used to own a 1977 Bandit Trans Am and that car...

I like the stripe in the 2nd pic, maybe have 3 or 4 shades going from light to dark the from bottom to top, or vice versa.

New guy on the block, been a lurker here for years and have decided to join the best Cruiser site in the world. I already know a few names from other forums in Australia. I have a 1989 75 series Troopy that was originally 3F powered. When the 3F died I fitted a HSV 350 Stroker V8. Until mice...
