A copycat Fairey would probably be a hassle but adapting a Gear Vendors' OD might be another way to go.Recreating something like that would be a massive undertaking with no chance of ROI. Cool idea though...
The company got sold to Superwinch at some point, therefore Superwinch might still be able to supply some replacement parts. Of course, Superwinch itself changed ownership in 2019.I looked up the old for sale thread I had. May have been only twelve years ago I sold the last one I had listed. Only have one 100% complete used one and couple close. The 100% is going in my 73. Do have other parts like bearings and shift linkage.

Pedal return spring: 90506-18055
We just pulled them out of our inventory and marked em dead
I can't remember what thread I read this in - but I made a note somewhere that P/N: 90507-14030, return spring from a 90's 4Runner or Taco, works as a replacement. I haven't confirmed this on my 40 but it's working looking into if someone blows a spring.
I don't know whether this is the appropriate place to ask, but I am looking for the "oval" shaped rubber grommet that goes in the floor next to the fuel tank on a 1977 HJ 45 and the vacuum switch which goes on the vacuum tank.
I believe it may have Superwinch who produced a new copy of the Fairey years ago. Thing it was mentioned on mud. As I remember the cost was ridiculous. Kind of a shame really the best option for a OD up to 1/79. After that the fuel tank was in the way. Requires no driveshaft mods. No body mods other than hole for the shifter in the transmission tunnel. Not sure O would want one with a V8. Needle bearings are not as robust as the ball bearings. But plenty of then survived a long time. Other than switching to a H55F with a split case of another five speed requiring an adapter. Those shrink the rear driveshaft like the Hone OD which only works in 2WD. Ranger I believe only works with a V8. There also one that that was a split case like the Fairey split case version. One or two of those popped up on mud.
I switched to a four speed in my 68 about the time I bought my first Fairey OD. Short of moving the torque tube. This was right about the time bought an FJ62. Prior to that I used my 68 for trips between Phoenix and Flagstaff. A few hills in I-17 third wouldn't hold and second was too low geared. Being able to split each gear would be a plus.
You are awesome Roger!
Thanks! It's really rewarding to see one of the legendary features in the Land Cruiser sphere get a second life. Those windows do slide back and forth!You are awesome Roger!
I was wondering! That is so cool. Excellent work on a complicated and rare piece.Thanks! It's really rewarding to see one of the legendary features in the Land Cruiser sphere get a second life. Those windows do slide back and forth!
Looks great. How wide is the opening the window slides in 3/4 ?Thanks! It's really rewarding to see one of the legendary features in the Land Cruiser sphere get a second life. Those windows do slide back and forth!
