Hi folks,
I have been in the cruiser community for some time and been working on the endless project of 40 for many years. I am seriously considering changing the 40 out for a troopy and starting the process a new. However, I feel like a dolt as I don't know nor can I find many of the details through searching. If someone has a few minutes, can you help me some questions?
1980 HJ47 Troopy AUS version (2h has been swapped for a 2f)
1. RHD - what problems would I have with this such as parts, adding PS?
2. Assuming stock - is the rear a full floater?
3. Assuming stock - is it a 1 ton axle?
4. Assuming stock - how would I tell what the gearing is?
5. Is an h55 swap a similar PITA to the 40?
6. Anything else I should be concerned about having replaced almost everything on a 77 40 over the years?
I appreciate the input!
Jeff
