Yes. Here’s a pic… it is run above the case so the case/trans can be dropped. For heat issues there is insulation. However, after seeing the pic again, I’m gonna extend the insulation to protect the clutch slave. Thx and have a great day.
Freeborn Red. The bottom has been done along with firewall and tub on chassis now. Original color was Spring Green which I like too. I’ll probably make one spring green down the road.
Just wanted to put out an update on this rig. The frame up is coming along well: 1) rebuilt the 350, 2) dropped in 4-spd w/ split case from fj60 using AA bellhousing, 3) powder coated frame and added 2” lift kit, 4) stainless steel muffler that routes above the skid plate, 5) new quarters on...
Decided to build a 60s rig. I almost have everything for it and gonna add a 2F w/4-spd.
Here’s what I have so far:
1. 1964 tub (pic)—my body guy is replacing the passenger floor, rear bed support channel and rear sill cover (all from Real Steel).
2. 1968 frame (pic) —I changed out the...
Thx for the offer. I have the mounts and just need the sbc 4-spd bellhousing. I’m hoping the mount locations (for 4-spd) are the same but if not I’ll just move them. The tub is almost ready for sandblasting—I’m so excited!
Thnx for the info. Though dropping in 5-spd is tempting, I’m leaning toward the 4-spd since I have 2 now. Here’s a pic of the propeller crossmember and 3-spd bellhousing. I know I need a 4-spd bell-housing but do I need different propeller crossmember too? Thanks.
Thx for the info. It’s good to know. I came across two 4-spds and gonna pop the tops on both to see what kinda shape they’re in. Seems I do need a different bellhousing which I’ll order shortly. Just got the 350 rebuilt and almost have the frame ready for powder coat. Lots of fun!
Just got back to MI yesterday with a 71 FJ40 I found in FL while down there. I’m gonna do a frame up on it…. I’m so excited! It has a 350 in it with original 3-spd. I’m looking to see if anyone has a 4-spd? I’d like to put a 4-spd in it. Also, do I need a different bellhousing for the 4-spd...
