Ordered another 4Plus tire carrier to see if it worked on the Pig and sure enough.
4 holes drilled and it bolts right up.

You need to put the full one on
Yeah, I just can't justify $1,100 just to carry a cooler. For that I will buy an ARB and strap it down inside.
But the carrier, that is on the list.

Neither were plugged in last night.

Same temps as here. 2f jumped to life in an instant this am but took a while to warm up. Cold, loud, completely steamed up windows. It was a great ride to breakfast with three OG mudders 
Winterland 77 bootleg in the tape deck..... looks like rain seemed uncannily appropriate

So, with the cracked block; I've located another 3B/h55/split case. I'm trying to figure out how much of it to use.
Looking at compatibility.
I have 3b/H42/3 speed case.
Is this the early "short" H42, or later H55 sized one?
16 or 19 spline? How do I know?

I'd love to use all the new stuff and get a 5th gear, but I'd loose my PTO; unless I can source a split case, 2 direction PTO.

Man. That’s a tough call. Id do H55 and
Leave winch as jewelry until I could rig it to work

If the winch isn't used a lot, then I'm with @wngrog put the h55 in and keep an eye out for a pto box.
If you use the wench regularly, then can just sell me the h55
As far as which h42 it is, most likely it is a short body. I'm pretty sure the long housing and split case never came in a pig. Do you have a trans x-member? If no, then it is short, w/o the extension. I have one in the garage that I will snap a pic of tonight for you.

Problem is, none of my drivetrain came from a 55. PO installed it.
From PO's build thread:
An H42 tranny housing with bosses for the belly cross member, ala B/FJ60 was found as well as a “B” series input shaft and the guts of the existing H42 was swapped to the new housing along with the “B” series input shaft. I did not want to use the cross member that mounts to the rear of the transfer case, it just doesn’t look very secure to me and it relies on bolts in the aluminum transfer case as well. A new transfer case needed to be found as well and an older 3 speed transfer case from a ’71 FJ40 was used for the lower low range. We did not go with the split case due to cost as well as the need to either swap the rear axle (to gain an e-brake) or add an e-brake to the split case, adding even more costs.
I think the H42 housing is from a 60. Probably the short one since 3 speed case?

Maybe these pics help?
I have no frame of reference for comparison.

Hmmm, interesting animal. I will be home in an hour or so and will get some pictures and measurements on the long h42.
