should be the same gearbox. might be some differences in the driveshaft flanges, you can swap those over without drama though. Input shaft and bellhousing are the same for F and 2H motors.

60's 5spd's all interchange from diesel to petrol and back and the same box's were used in early 75's.Diesel and petrol bellhousings don't interchange but the g/box to b/housing bolt pattern and input shafts are the same in all 6cyl L/C's
A HJ 75 is the same as an FJ 60 the only difference in the box's you speak of is the FJ 62 unit may have a vacuum operated transfercase.
