Good to have a nice neighbor farmer who has a big green engine crane off to the steam cleaner, can't have such a dirty engine in the new work shop

Assembly began

Assembly continued

 

[Hauge]

And as a good coworker said "when you assemble something you renovated... you need to paint a part yellow". So the dip stick got a yellow handel

And a new set of hoses was added

I was visiting a site in California where my site truck was a F150 (not a toyota I know!). But at the same time my colleague was at a site in Morocco in north Africa ... he was offered a Dacia Duster... That made me pretty happy for the F150

We visit Kennedy Space center and took our lunch south of the complex down A1A... Just looked it up on google, sorry it was at Cocoa Beach But any way close by. Unfortunately I'm not that often in US anymore since I change job. But it could be cool to chat with some one local I'll give a shout if I'm in the region some day

Does it have the drum parking brake on the split transfer case? I bought a split transfer case from an '85 BJ45 for my '71 FJ40, but haven't mated it with my H41 from an '85 HJ47 yet. Except for 5th gear, it should have the same gearing as yours.

Why would a BJ42 have a drum brake on the transfer case? I personally think the 45/47 were never offered with an H55F is because for some reason they didn't want to deal with having a hand brake cable running to the back axle. Which seems strange since the 60 came out two years before the H55F and those always had the hand brake on the rear axle. 8/80 Toyota standardized the fuel tank/ torque tube on all 40 series models. Which a few have squeezed a five speed with hand brake.om the transfer case Toyota never did. To keep the hand brake on the transfer case all LWB 40 series never had a five speed.

No it's not on the transfer case, my hand brake in in the drums on the rear axel. Please see the drawing, the clank and lever is for the hand brake
