Should do. It would be located on the gear selector plate on the top of the gearbox. If undo the bolt on the gear stick boot, you see it on the passenger side front of where the gear stick goes into the gearbox.

Hope that helps

The HZJ75 had the H55F gearboxes. I am not sure that the H55F will go into a 79 series easily, the tailshafts would be different lenghts.
Might be easier to use the H150/H151 from a part-time 4WD 80 series.

How many people do that? If that was the case, just about everywhere I go will be in 4th while towing the camper. James I have always driven crusiers that way. In the higher gears, I change around 2700-3000rpm to keep the engine in it's comfort range (peak torgue range is around 2200-2800rpm). I ...

Why are you in 5th while driving at 65-70kmph? This puts undue stress on engine.
You should only use 5th from 80kmph and higher, 4th for speeds 50-100kmph.

Factor around $60 per injector for new pintles and spray pattern check. For around $400-500, you get the injector pump checked (pump volume and condition) and new seals for vacuum advance/throttle setup. This is not a complete pump rebuild though but it is better than nothing. Are you doing this ...

No they don't have a warning light as they pump the fuel from the sub to the main tank, so a warning light is not nessasary. The pump turns off automatically when the sub is empty. Generally, there isn't a pump between the tanks but two fuel solenoids (one for fuel and one for return line). When ...

If its coming round from teh top of the bellhousing, its not the rear main or gearbox input seal. Think about it, unless that oil is made by Bentzook himself it cant alter the laws of gravity, and will flow down. Follow the oil trail up, most lilkey to rocker cover or distributor seal. Layto ...
