I need an H42 4 speed transmission.. the Northwest would be nice, so i can come and pick it up.. I am in Portland Oregon..
 
there are a few different versions of the H42 4 speed, which one are you after?

great question, i'll get the casing number... sorry..
may take me a few days..
 
More important to know length and output shaft splines. I have one out of a 76 FJ40 (16 splines), but it's a long way from Oregon.

I think there are 4 versions:

Early with 10 spline output (Possibly 74 only)
Mid with 16 spline output (75-79)
Late early 19 spline output (80-4/85)
Late with 19 spline output and extension housing (4/85-87)

Anyway, you gotta know what you need.

What transfer case are you mating it up to?
 
I believe I have an early 19 spline kicking around. Maybe a later one too.
 
here is a picture..
ok, here is a description..
i took a doubler from a 203 transfer case and adapted it to my h42..
i needed a transition gear, since the output h42 shaft was too long to make work..
cut 6 inches off the h42 output, welded up a "spud" gear with a 203 input shaft and a doubler first inline gear..
made a housing, 6 inches or so for the spud transition..
ended up with four shift sticks..
and the pic i have will not load..
I can post a few pics on my youtube channel if that will help..
from the pics I can not see a housing cast number, so the basic spline count from the pic is ...
.. hey, wait. i saved the cut off.. 16 spline..

if this helps.. this is a poor representation of my skill base..

581 miles says the Google. You should be able to find one closer and I'm not interested in shipping (too big and heavy). If you're passing through, we could make a deal.
 
I could have gotten one as far as Sausalito yesterday.
 
I have one back up at home, and I am in bend now.
 
h42 still needed .. getting desperate ..
 
16 spline output (75-79), H42, is what I need..
 
Still needed? I've got an extra in MT, it will fit in a plastic tote for shipping.
ok, lets talk details.. what town? must be a four speed, 16 spline output..

I don't know the exact year, it is an H42 4 speed that had a 1 piece transfer case behind it.
do you need the shifter or top plate?

do not need the top plate or shifter, just the gears..
i didn't catch the Town in Montana?

i do not need the case either.. if it is the right tranny, i just need the gears..
