No shots of the frame before, damn digital #%#@%......

 

[Radd Cruisers]

Engine mounts, we swopped the motor mounts on the engine.

 

[Radd Cruisers]

Again :whoops:

 

[Radd Cruisers]

Drivers side mount

 

[Radd Cruisers]

Clearance, issue with water outlet. Nothing a die grinder could not fix.

 

[Radd Cruisers]

Shifters bang on except they were leaning to the right, little heat and bending puts them on the North American side.

 

[Radd Cruisers]

Heat shield and starter touching, bye bye heat sheild.

 

[Radd Cruisers]

Side shot

 

[Radd Cruisers]

Terriable frontal shot, still learning the new digital.

There will be no progress for a couple of weeks to a month, we are deep into a 1982 FJ42 restoration from New York.

One of the young guys who works for me is pumped to get the HZ finished as well as myself.

Its going to look hot with the beadlocks Tom purchased and the white paint job against the expoxy coated shiny frame.

HI all one some questions ..

5.29 Gears are strong .. ? I say this because the pinion are very small .. and other question is, I already have ARB front and rear with 4.56 gears but in rear with semi floating axle ..

How you install the cross pin . ?

cheers ..

It is probably best to post this as a new topic instead of making it a reply to the "1HZ swap into FJ60" topic. Also posting it to the General 40/60 Tech would be better than the International forum.

To answer your questions, there were some guys on the Pirate4x4 forum that installed 5.29 gears into the SF rear. There was a lot of grinding into the ring gear to allow the pin to fit. I'm not sure if they ever reported any breakage with them. Just be sure to carry some 5.29 spare thirds with you, these are going to be hard to find if you break.

Who are you purchasing the turbo and intercooler from? I have a 12ht that is in need of intercooling.

I think Safari offers one up.

Andre used a unit out of a old Saab I think and he made it work, I guess you will need something big enough for the 12HT compressor.

I have seen the safari units too, very nice but not cheap....

Also, If you go the "old saab" route go with a saab 9000 turbo unit as opposed to the 900 turbo unit for better flow and a more suitable size. Volvo intercoolers are pretty decent too, but keep in mind all these were designed for much smaller engines so they may not be the most efficient route to take.

edit: Then again I have no experience turbocharging or intercooling a cruiser .......yet...... :
