Exactly why I got it! This is the unit I got:...
Nice! I honestly don't know exactly which trans I have, any way to ID for sure? It's a 4 speed with a side shift and the truck is a 77 if that helps
If the bellhousing is swappable from the 4 speed I have that, otherwise I don’t. That said the 100 was per package so if you’re cool with a second...
One other quick thing, it looks like there's also a limit of 100lb per package. Not sure how much the trans weighs and how much wiggle room that...
That's the plan actually! I need to look into how well POR-15 will stick to clean metal, but I figured I would wire wheel and sand the whole pan...
I almost forgot the very first thing I did to this truck. Same as my last one, it's removing that hideous rear bumper: [IMG] After all this...
After mechanical interior fixes was electrical work. Basically no lights were working, from reverse lights, to dash lights/warning lights, and the...
"Not" was the answer I unfortunately came to, but only just barely. After tearing up the flooring this greeted me: [IMG] which while certainly...
The trans was shifting poorly, absolutely no feel whatsoever. Looked like bad bushings. Well if I buy rubber bushings again that'll take forever...
As for the rest of the truck, it seemed to be in great shape. California is so much nicer to old stuff than Jersey it's frankly not fair. Plugs,...
When I got the truck it ran great until it warmed up where it absolutely refused to idle. I figured the carb needed a bit of a tuneup and a check...
Hey all, I've been around here for a while but took a bit of a break. I used to have a 74 Hilux but ended up selling that to @hambler and took...
Thank you so much! 40 honestly still seems low especially considering you have to drive somewhere further and make a crate. At least let me give...
Thanks Fred! Shack, are you okay with separating the trans and bringing it to a Greyhound station to ship? It looks like shipping is reasonable...
New Jersey. ZIP 07821 (this is why I figured it would be crazy to ship)
You still have it? And are you willing to just sell and ship the trans? Probably gonna be more than I can swing but worth a shot if you have it still
Honestly I wish I had the time to fly and drive it. I priced it out this morning and I think I could do it cheaper than shipping it but I don’t...
Yeah from now until it comes it’s just gonna be stressing about it haha. Especially since I sold my only car so all I’ve got is the motorcycle to...
Well that was quick. Thanks JJ! Just made a deal with the 77 and I’m organizing getting it shipped to Jersey. Glad I’ll back back in the Mini...
Just seeing that, that thing seems like a deal. Long bed is definitely a preference too. Might have to look into shipping quotes. Not sure how...
