The vehicle it came out of had done 330000 km but i believe it had been pulled out and rebuilt by a previous owner at some time.

You don't need to give me a driving lesson I know how to shift the cruiser box, $3500 isn't bad considering it includes new input shaft,new cluster, new gears, new bearings and all new synchros, the ebay boxes are just second hand items with new bearings thrown in them, I'd rather spend the extra ...

Hi, I thought I would put my 2c in as my 80 seems to be the hot topic of conversation at the moment :lol:
The engine is the original 1HDT that was fitted to the vehicle and has travelled 330000 kms, I didn't realise that I had made a mistake and listed it as a HZJ80 on my offroad80s profile but ...
