    internal differances between H55 and H55f

    Hendrik - all the 60's i see at that are from quokka but occasionally carsales.com.au. they're all unrego'ed as im only going to be using for parts. there was one in a few weeks ago not sure if its still there but 85% complete for $650. theyre 20+ years old and most will have been abused...

    internal differances between H55 and H55f

    cheers for the responses, i'd like to get a 1hz with tranny but it would be too expensive for me that way. i can get hold of a 60 series for $1000AUS, this gives me a h55f, transfer, spare engine, power steering, option of wider axles, front disc brakes, and so on. the only thing it doesnt have...

    internal differances between H55 and H55f

    digging up an old thread here, (and highjacking!!) i have a 1970 1F 3sp fj40 (in oz). its nearing completion and one of the first things i'l do after rego is swap in a 5sp.

    All you long-distance FJ40 drivers

    unbelievable.. try that on any other car and see what happens. 1500 miles isnt far off what some cars rate as time between oil changes!

    early 40 door seals

    im restoring the doors on a 1970 40, but in Aus i cant find anyone who supplies seal kits. i want every seal and rubber in the door as the ones i have are in bad shape. Are there any suppliers in the states (or Oz that i dont know about) who sell them? if not what have other guys done?

    powdercoating chromed pieces

    cluth master differences

    i have a 1970 cruiser (9mm brake lines) and im replacing the clutch master cylinder. As well as this, im upgrading the brakes to discs and hence 10mm fittings. looking at the newer (75'-80') clutch masters, they also have a 3/4 bore like the 1970, so the only difference i can see is the 10mm...
