I am upgrading my four speed H41 transmission to a five speed H55F transmission and I want to buy a used transmission to use instead of cutting into my original transmission hub for the fitment of the shifters. The shifter position on the five speed is different than the four speed. I hear that...

Hello fellow Cruiser heads,
I purchased a 1979 Troopy that didn’t come with a hard top. I know they are pretty rare to come by. Worst case I’ll make a top out of 2- 40 tops down the road but if anyone happens to have a hard top or sides for the troopy they would be willing to part with would be...

I've recently purchased a 1979 HJ45 Troop Carrier and I'm keen to put power steering in it. Does anyone know where to find a kit/what I can use from another car/How I can do it?
Thanks!
I just bought a restored 1978 HJ45 and the 2WD stopped working. All of the 4WD options work but when I shift the 4WD back to neutral then the gear won’t engage as shift through them. I can also shift to gear and take my foot off the clutch and the car won’t stall.

Hello I have a 1980 HJ45 Aussie. My cruiser had been throwing sparks when it would start up and eventually it completely died on me. I had a new starter and starter relay installed but it started arching when you would connect the battery terminals. I solved the arching issue which was solved by...
