No. An RWD is a comletely different animal from an FWD box. There's no guarantee the a f20c box would fit either. In fact I'd say that it proabaly can't.

Just out of interest, you do know that it's not a CAMS compliant cage?

Finding a gearbox will be your first issue.

Time for you to get a ruler or tape measure. On a car that's nearly 30 odd years old the size could be anything from 1-1/4" to 2-1/2" inch diameter and anything in between.

Yep. Just finishing one off now. Yep, it's also had to get a blue plate.

Due to reduced interest levels, let it be commonly known that I am refusing to participate in Christmas this year. PS: Bah Humbug.

Did he have the head re-done at all? Is it flat still?

Refer previous comment.

I will if it degenerates into a bitch-fest.

+1 The Italian Job (The original......)

You know it's true..... :dance:

The mines I've been dealng with in Central Qld have more than 20 years + of work in them. They are screaming for reliable, hard working people. The support industries are screaming for reliable, hard working people. Herein lies the problem. They can get people, but they are either as thick as two short planks, or don't want to work. I have an associate who's offered me 6 figures to work for a company doing shut down and breakdown maintenance, who's pleaded with me to go to Emerald because he can't get quality workers. The thing people don't realise is that it's dirty, hard, heavy work. If you aren't willing to put in the work, occasionally put yourself out (the companies REALLY scream when their product isn't coming out of the ground....) you'll last about ten minutes. The money's there, but you have to work for it. A lot of companies don't like employing straight out of school unless it's a traineeship/ apprenticeship. Mainly due to work ethic. Or lack thereof. Oh, it's also HIDEOUSLY expensive to live in a mining town.

It's true. The FG ute was designed by a commitee. One group for the front, and one for the back. Pity they never had any commitee meetings.

Fail.

No. Completely different.

Put it up in a wanted to buy ad. Classifieds don't belong in regional forums.... :no2:

He's got nothing. :dance: I polished up 2 of those things in a hyundai excel at a motorkhana on Sunday. :P

1: Buy a manual 2: Doesn't really matter, box on or off. 3: I can have one out in less than an hour. By myself. The main thing to contemplate is your lifting device. I use a chainblock hung from the roof. Therefore bonnet needs to come off. If you use an engine crane, you can get away with leaving it on, but probably easier with it off. I've also used the piece of chain, six foot length of pole, and two strong mates method, but that one is far easier with the gearbox off it, although it can be done with it in one piece.

It may not make it tramp as such, but it certainally would not help.

Tell me again how the 2T and 2TG work?

Your local (quality) auto parts store. Tell them the year, make and model, hand over a couple of dollars, walk off with part.

Your reputation is still intact. :)

I've heard the moon is made of cheese, too. Don't believe everything you hear. Go forth and measure.

:shock: This from the man who's stomach was manufactured by a Belfast ship building company??

On the road, yes. On private property or at a rock ape convention (burnout comp) no. As they haven't implicitely stated where they have been occuring, it may stay. I'm still watching carefully though.
