Yeah, after a year of hiatus I am finally back at it.
The PS reservoir is planned to be mount up high on the radiator frame.
This specific aluminum housing found on BJ60s and BJ70's is a direct swap with no tilting. Perhaps you are thinking the H series housings from the 60 series...
Yeah the engine and transmission are all set up.
Ended up sourcing a 13bt aluminum housing, and a 1987 h41 with 5th spacer input shaft to swap into my H series h55f.
The difficult part is sourcing the input shaft but I managed to find one.
I am currently working on the body which has lots...
Then check out what appeared in the mail!! Ken from gearinstalls set me up with a brand new rear ARB air lock set up on a 60 series rear diff, keeping mine as a spare, with all the extra goodies inlcuded!
Test fitting the engine with the bigger dyna mounts. It didn't work in the end, the engine was sitting way high and the bellhousing mount did not line up at all.
I tried the B block mounts and rubber mount and they worked awesome - very factory position of the engine.

I will be converting my soft top medium wheelbase 40 series to a hardtop and I am looking for the rear window dimension as shown in the photo.

Just teared down everything and turns out the knuckles are 10mm or so bigger. So they wont fit. I can however use mini kmickles, pzj75 arms, vented rotors and 4x caliper
So now i am after a set of 70 9.5'' bare knuckles
Turns out that the bells on the housing are around 10-13mm bigger thus the knuckles wont fit on the 9.5''housing.
What I will be doing, probably is mini knuckles, pzj75 arms, rotors and calipers.
