pics
he's not a web wheeler? thats okay I like his style in FJ's !!!
I would very much like more pics
how close to cross member if I wanted to try and get a transfer case brake?
What input shaft did he use or what model did he pull the h55 from
motor mount and rear crossmeber info and pics
I know thats asking a lot but any info you can get without too much trouble will be greatly appreciated
Steering shaft clearance vs starter location (mine is a SAG power steering)
just trying to cross ref everything I have been told so far and get it right--I am in the UK which is making this a little harder---but when a 1hd-t falls into your lap???? What else can you do
great action shots! This rig kinda reminds me of the baja winner

HZJ75 model H55F or the input shaft from that substituted into, will also need the bellhousing.
not a chance .. the rear DS it's short and with t'case drum .. that will be just u-joint to U-joint
He's using complete HDJ80 drivetrain .. so H151 with HF1A t-case 14splines 300mm clutch
need to take those ..
he's using 60 series PS box .. so no steering chaft problems ..
Might be able to go with a disc instead of a drum.
This one is pretty expensive, $1600 Australian for the transfer handbrake kit, but could probably be done a lot cheaper DIY...

Is that the older single piece transfer case?
Are you using a newer split transfer case?
If so, would you need to modify that transfer brake to fit the newer transfer?

Hello,
After a while driving an H151-equipped Cruiser and having had the chance to drive the much talked about H55F, there is a couple things to say.
The H151 is clicky to shift, and sometimes it feels hard. It takes a while to get used to it. Acquired taste? Maybe. However, it can stand a lot of punishment, both on- and off-road. I still have to see how it ages, but I like it.
On the other hand, the H55F is softer when shifting, friendly if you like. I wish the ones I drove had a more powerful/less tired engine attached to them, but it felt good. No wonder it has so many fans. It slips out of gear as it gets old, but it is something to expect when proper care is not applied.
Nevertheless, I do miss the H41's granny-low first gear.
Having said this, I recommend the H151.
I am getting used to the clicky shift, but that is another story.

looks great .. wish it could hold my 40" ..
for a old t-case style and still wonder if that caliper will hold ..
same here
FJ 60 Land Cruiser
just wanna be sure that really holds ..
there is a old H41 with 5.29:1 1st gear in the FSM ..
disc
yes,
seemed kinda lightweight and had interference probs with my xmember on a 71 with a 2f 4 speed so I went back to the drum

just remember that brake is to be used to hold the vehicle from rolling and a one time only application to hydrolic brake failure. it 'looks' plenty strong for this application.
it would be interesting to test.

X2 .. I already test their ( from TSM ) calipers with e-brake and that sucks .. calipers are good enough, but e-brake it's useless ..
was a 200 bucks difference .. and don't worth ..

David,
Can you explain a little more what you mean when you say that the caliper is good enough but e-brake its useless. Do you mean the caliper is good but the rotor that comes with the kit warps or the shoes don´t hold for example?
Thanks,
JAB
let me explain it a bit more .. I got from TSM the rear disc brake kit and as option they offer the eldo calipers which are with e-brake ..
The difference between e-brake eldo calipers and stock normal calipers ( woithout e-brake ) are 200 bucks .. so I choose the e-brake option ..
Calipers and disc combo work like a charm and brake brutal .. no clues. But after triying a bunch of cable options I gave up .. the e-brake feature it's useless to me .. or in my application ( Tencha ).
