I'm parting out an old truck and it has an SM420 4 spd. Hammerhead suggested I post it for sale because somebody is making parts for them again and it doesn't matter so much that it's 50yrs old.
The tranny is located in Veyo, which is located on Hwy 18, approx. 20mi N. of St. George, Utah.

I have an '86 Toyota (p/u) parts truck for sale. It has a Marlin Crawler double t-case set up, and a lock-rite loaded rear-end with 4.10 gears. The front center section is gone. The 22R engine needs rebuilding...
I have an '85 Toyota (p/u) parts truck for sale. It has a Marlin Crawler double t-case set up, and a lock-rite loaded rear-end with 4.10 gears. The front center section is gone. The 22R engine needs rebuilding. The previous owner drowned the engine in a river-crossing, got it running again and...
There's been all kinds of discussion about which tranny to swapp to, but, I don't recall any mention of using GM trannies with Toyota engines. Can it be done without having to make custom parts? I've got a couple of good F motors that are worth nothing around here because A) Out here everybody...

I've been hankering for a go fast off-road vehicle. I've already done the Desert Racing Dunebuggy thing. Waaaay fast (180 HP Turbocharged Corvair engine and I still have the motor), but it got stuck too easy when I couldn't use momentum. I'd been...
Is there an adapter to mate a 700R4 to a toy mini rangebox? So many of you guys are raving about how cheap and strong the toybox is that you have me contemplating using one in my next buildup. My goal is 4.3/700R4/toybox/4spdTC
I've asked about the H55 and the 4spd with the 4.9 1st(don't know the designator) and recieved a bunch of helpfull info. I have yet to find out about 2nd gear.
With either of these trans, driving on the street, do you shift the 4spd like the '78 4spd(1,2,3,4). Or like a 465(L,1,2,3)?
Does the...
For some time now my idea of the perfect tranny has been the late-model 5-spd. I craved the 5...../1 1st gear and the overdrive. Now that I have a Rockbox I am not so covetous of the low 1st gear, but I still crave the overdrive.
I have a couple of questions about the ratios and...
Used FJ parts are nearly nonexistant in S. Utah, so I was thinking about going with new springs when I go SOA. I've decided to follow the trend and put FJ55 springs on both ends of my truck. My questions are:
1) Do I really need FJ55 springs, or just springs the same length as '55 springs.
2) If...
Ordinarily I stick to Cruiser Tech but....
The guys from Front Range Off Road told me 2yrs ago that they had a full floater kit for the rear of Toy Minis. Anybody got one? Know anything about 'em?
They also told me they are developing a similar kit for the FJ40. I talked to 'em over Easter and...
I've been considering putting FJ 55 springs, flipped, on the rear of my 40. And going SOA. I guess I'll need to go for stock spings on the front unless there's a better option. What's the best source for new aftermarket springs? ???
There is probably a thread or 2 already covering this and if some one could enlighten me on how to find it I'd appreciate the info. I would like to know if FJ 40 axles can handle 38" tires, and what gear ratio would best acommodate them, 4.56 or 4.88. ???
I have been told that the TBI on my bearing damaged 4.3 can be installed and modified to power my SBC 350. Any body know for sure?
Anybody know how well a 4.3 can pull an FJ40?
In S. Utah I only need to use my wipers once in a while, so I've lived with this problem for a while. The shafts are stuck in the sleeves that mount them. The whole assembly turns till the nuts loosen enough that there is too much slop to function. Tighten the nuts too much and they won't move...
