What's a Parts Guy to Do??

[OGBeno]

Small pieces of the puzzle coming together.

Pulling 2F and tranny out this weekend (I am keeping the transfer case).

It will go to it's new home in a restored FJ40.

And these beauties came in from @orangefj45 1HZ frame mounts. These will get powder coated in the very near future.

How many engines is that gonna get before it is actually moving under it's own power?

That's just plan'ole mean Dan.

Are you heating up the frame or is someone else?
I had to weld in the original engine mounts back in. If you have advice on where to place them then great, otherwise you cam count on my worthless .02 cents anytime.

2F/H55F left today for its new home in a 1971 FJ40. A little piece of me left as well.

Good bye to the petrol world.

For those of you interested in where my 2F/H55F went to, I did get to see her again in her new home. Brought a few tears to my eye, but it is where it needs to be.

Nice. Looks like it is in a dedicated land cruiser shop somewhere.

1971. This is getting a full frame off treatment and then will be sold at auction.

In that case there no better mill for it than your old 2F!

That is a gorgeous motor indeed!

Not any time soon. 60 might be on the chopping block. We shall see.

Nooo. Having two diesels makes you an official "diesel guy"

 

[CuCruiser]

Wow. Those pics of that perfect motor/trans hanging in space should be a sticky or something. very instructive to wannabe 2F mechanics like me.
