    Why a boosted clutch?

    nice question I will be looking at the replies with interest. One year ago I swapped my 2H for a 12HT. The donor car (HJ61) came with the boosted clutch pedal, but I did not use it. Still have all the stuff to convert my "normal" clutch, so maybe... Repelsteel

    FJ62 in the new guinness beer commercial!!

    You guys start to comment on the cruiser, like it is very unlikely you will encounter one in the wild. Is it me or is it REALY unlikely that, not only the beer gets wondering of rather spectecular (I saw that before... I think), but that it's caught on tape as well, from rather scary angles...

    Double fuel tank capacity

    I have read a lot about extra fuel capacity storage on this forum, but could not find anything about doubling the same original tank. I think I will be needing an extra fuel pump to get all the fuel from Tank #1 to tank #2. The top tank will not hose it's whole contents to the bottom tank, due...

    Double fuel tank capacity

    Hi guys, I have broken down a HJ61 (1990). 12HT went into my HJ60 (1981). Now my garage is piled up with all sorts of cruiser guts, including the fuel tank. Sooo... Yesterday I had an idea, why not strap the 61 fueltank under the original fuel tank? Just keep the original tank (#1) in...

    12HT swap Hi, Four weeks ago I swapped the 2H and gearbox and tranny out of my '81 HJ60 for a 12HT out of a '90 HJ61. Took me two days of massive wrenching with a friend of mine. Between the two models I had to deal with a the changes a 60 had to endure. Thinks we had to alter: RHS...

    Early 2H vs 12HT engine mount location

    Hi all, A friend of mine is installing a 12HT in a HJ60 (1983, original 2H). The right hand site engine mount is aprox. 1 inch off, left hand site is ok. I heard something about early HJ60's, one engine mount has a different location on the chassis than younger versions? Can some one please...

    Saw the driver rear rim had oil. Pulled the rim and...

    over pressure Hi, It could also be a wise idea to check your axle breather. I have seen a leakage like that due to a glogged axle breather. The oil heats up during operation, pressure builds up and oil and air find the weakest link in your axle sealing. Good luck.

    Opinion about Dobinson springs

    Hi all I am in the process cleaning up my HJ60 (1981, 5 speed, full floater, lim. slip, Eberspacher stationary heater). Last week it had a total respray (tan, white roof, thanks Troopie!) and a custom drawer system. Wheels and tires are changed in favour of 33x9.5x15 BFG A/T's. Photo's will...

    Am I too tall.

    Not so big boy... I made a "small" mistake...:o I wrote 6"7'... What I ment was 6'7"... More custom to metric I gess. At almost 2 meters:flamingo: I fit my HJ60 nice and comfy, but I would change the (driver)seat if I had to drive it more often and over longer distances. I had a FJ55 (or...

    Am I too tall.

    Big boy I am 6" 7' 265 pounds and no real problems here. Maybe the seat is lacking support, but thats more a weight issue I gess... On longer trips I use the hand throttle, to reduce the stress in the right knee. I put my right foot somewhere between gearshifter and my wive. Makes sudden...

    3.0 1KZ-TE turbo diesel engine?

    FJ55 diesel mtnmort, I am the guy with the 3ltr diesel in his 55... (buddy from troopie) Great engine! Only thing is, I have got the 1KZ-T engine and not the 1KZ-TE engine build into the pig. So less electrical issues. The whole driveline is upgraded, because the torque can give some...
