Are you sure it's not a diff???

Same box and transfer can be found in any petrol or diesel (FJ and HJ) 60 and 75 series. The only difference will be that some models use a vacuum operated transfer case which is not too hard to swap back to normal shift if you have all the parts. :armsup: thats the info I needed thank you kindly ...

Re: wheel studs - lube? or no lube?
For many years I (like your good self) gave em a good firm reef...... then when I was a front wheel man on a NASCAR we found that a wheel change could save nearly 2 full seconds if we ran the tension wrench over the nuts pre-race.... This setting of the tension made un-doing the nuts far easier and ...

dont use a standard 3.8 for this, at least get a supercharged model with stronger internals. X2 & make sure the blower is still attached :finger: I've gone away from the twin turbo setup and am now playing with a blower .... Much more fun, more torque, & far easier on the $$$ :armsup:

Re: wheel studs - lube? or no lube?
I've always used a single drop of sump oil per stud every time a
wheel is changed .... (via the dip-stick)
Something my dad always used aswell, so I just continued on with
that idea.
Never had a broken stud or stuck nut in my driving lifetime ....
(touch wood )
