Blizzard/Rugger info......

Post by DieselBoy »

I have just bought a Diahatsu Rugger, the one that looks the same as the Toyota Blizzard, solid axles, leaf sprung etc etc

Its a project competition truck.

It's with out an engine at the moment and i am trying to figure out what i can match the gearbox/bellhousing up to.

Any thoughts??

Anyone know the similarities between Blizzard and Rugger running gear??

I am after any info and thoughts at this stage so i can piece together a plan based on what s available to me.

I am currently considering sourcing a Toyota Blizzard bell housing (if i can find one) which could possibly bolt to the Rugger gearbox, which would then bolt to a Toyota 2.8 diesel (3L).

Either that or throwing a Hilux box, and a Toyota 2Litre Petrol (3Y) in it.

Any thoughts or info for a good cause??
