TB42 and TD42 same?

Post by Frankenyota »

TB42 and TD42 share the same bellhousing pattern?
Was told they are the same but just want to make sure, as found a tidy petrol auto that i want to put a turbo diesel in.

Cheers

Different bellhousing.
Cant remember whats different though. Maybe just missing a bolt hole, but not sure.
Bogged should be able to chime in with a 100% correct answer.

The guy i work with swapped out his shot diesel for a petrol engine.
Said it bolted right up, but dosen't hurt to double check.

Do 89 patrols come with rear disc brakes?
Forgot to check.
