Hi all,
Just thought I would introduce myself as I have been lurking here for a while. Have already had some great help from people so thank you.
My truck is a 1984 BJ42, from what I understand it was sold as a soft top but has gained a BJ40 (guessing from the original blue colour) hardtop at some point. I have recently done the seals and bearings in both axles and at the same time installed a Powertrax Non-Slip differential which I am very keen to test. Engine is standard but will be getting some attention to the pump and injectors.
I'm currently on the hunt for parts so if if you come accross any 42 gear give us a yell. In particular interest is a wreck (or a healthy frame, tub, doors and panels) and airconditioning gear.
Look forward to learning more from you all and hopefully for what it is worth contributing myself.
Cheers
Jon

Hi all, new here. Live in FNQ Au, love fishing and hunting, nothing out of the ordinary up here..
My ute is a HJ47, turbo 1HZ, 5 speed, 75 series disc brake diffs, hydraulic winch to mention a few things.
a few things have changed on the old girl since these photos were taken, white roof and some extra stuff added.
look forward to talking sharing info with you guys.
regards Sam
