    1978 FJ40...Vintage Air or Nostalgic Air System?

    The install turned out pretty well. Summers here are pretty harsh. And I had no insulation on the floor and firewall, yet it performed well for the front passenger and the driver. People in the rear cabin did not get much cooling. The driver side pod also helped at front. For the heater I got...

    DIY jobs give such a satisfaction if you get the desired results. Did some Dash Pad Troubleshooting. Turned out to be better than I expected.

    Thanks. It indeed does make a difference Joel. Interestingly, this tool was the first hub cap related part I bought, at least a year before I got the Hub Caps and Wheels 😂

    The original mount worked, the compressor fit on it without the need of an adjuster bracket.

    Finally AC installation in progress. The air flow speeds are awesome. It still may take a couple of days to complete the installation and charge the AC system, but looks good. I especially like the fact that it does not take up the leg space in the passenger side.

    It was planned during this week, but need some electrical issues sorted before the AC install. I may be able to update by middle of July with Nostalgic Air install In sha Allah (God Willing)

    The 4x4 engaged indicator light works, and is a bit too bright :cool:

    Mating H55F with Diesel B Engine in a 1978 BJ40

    My BJ40 is in Pakistan and will stay there. I work in Dubai, but visit often. The transmission cross member on the BJ40 would clash with the front drive shaft due to its shape. So an 8/80 onwards cross member and a new transmission mount were installed. No other mods to the frame. Let me...

    Mating H55F with Diesel B Engine in a 1978 BJ40

    Seller is a used parts dealer and I had to rely on his word that it came from a 40 Series. It is quite possible that it came from a 60 series. The knobs are replaced by the seller (you can see different shifter knob in earlier photos) and may not have been original for this transmission. As the...

    Noted and agreed on the 8/80 onwards for non split H41 transfer case. transfer case shift lever is the same one which came with the H55F transmission I got.

    Comparison between Pre-8/80 and Post-8/80 H41 Transmissions. Clear differences in the transfer case. Thanks to @livinginthepast for correction.

    Mating H55F with Diesel B Engine in a 1978 BJ40

    Finalized installation. The new transmission allows for the 4WD engaged Indication to be enabled, which wasn't the case for H41 in my 1978. So there was no such indicator light on the dash. The workshop installed a Green light in place of my fog lamp switch which wasn't in use. I will definitely...

    This shows how close the parking brake drum was to the round pipe cross member on the frame Yay, no cutting required on the hump. This is not the final position of the lever The correct top plate paid off big time. Sits perfectly in the original place
