Tell me more about that hino. What's its wheelbase and over all max weight? 

We have pretty much sold ours (awaiting contract to be done) 

 

[shizzl 1,905]

Well I've sold all of the hunter engine parts that I have. 

Carbs, head etc.. 

Got the engine disconnected ready to pull out for collection next weekend. 

Have a breast plate on its way which should work with the crossmember. 

Got a 12a carb but needs a strip and clean. 

Found an electronic dizzy too with modules, these seem to be very hard to find these days.. 

Only need a driveshaft yoke, colling fan, fuel pump and hosing etc and an alternator with bracket. 

Then start piecing this together.

On the hunt for m16/type16 Ford calipers, and capri vented discs if anyone happens to have any floating round. 

Also rwd mazda driceshaft/yoke

Ask @maxted about a drive shaft- he might have a spare

Remarkably, the engine and box went straight in.. With some fighting and cussing. 

All bolted up nicely enough. 

Shifter hole is about 70mm off, but that puts it in a better location for reach.

what box is it? If its a series 2/3 box then you can move the shifter forwards by around 70mm or something- if that helps. But sounds like ya don't need to

 

Fake edit- I looked at the pic again and see its a series 1 box.

[shizzl 1,905]

Yeah s1 box. I did that trick yo a s4 box in the ute I built back in the day.
