Dodgeb4ya Posted March 15, 2015 Report Posted March 15, 2015 What year is your 2 1/2 ton ? The last ones we have that say OD on the end are early 1952 production. So the only ones I have ever seen were 1951 or 1952 production units. Come 1953 they were no longer marked or at least none that we have and I hate to admit just how many we happen to have. A 1952. Please admit as to how many NP OD 5 speeds you have... pretty please 1 Quote
Dodgeb4ya Posted March 15, 2015 Report Posted March 15, 2015 (edited) I take it the 1953 Fargo KA's come with a H300/320? Edited March 15, 2015 by Dodgeb4ya 1 Quote

Teemu Posted March 10, 2016 Author Report Posted March 10, 2016 All flathead engines that i have are beyond repair for my skills and budget. So i planned and already bought 318 v8, but steering gear issues and local laws (and fuel prices) were against this.. I ended up going six cylinder turbodiesel. I know that this is unholy option, but i think it's better than ending up to scrapyard.. Friend of mine scrapped Land Cruiser HJ61 and i took engine out of it. Maybe this weekend i'll make adapterplate between original bellhousing and Toyota 12H-T engine... Quote

Teemu Posted June 18, 2016 Author Report Posted June 18, 2016 Something has happened... Started working on adapterplate today. Maybe someday i'll be machining plane for other side of plate and outside shapes. Programs for machine are ready, but dont know when i have inspiration... There should be pictures. https://plus.google.com/115033821208097594045?hl=fi Quote
Teemu Posted June 21, 2016 Author Report Posted June 21, 2016 Test fitting adapterplate to engine... Tomorrow i'll completely rape original belhousing to fit to adapter. Quote

Teemu Posted July 6, 2016 Author Report Posted July 6, 2016 (edited) Time for update! Adapterplate is finished, engine and bellhousing are fitted together, spline shaft of gearbox is modified to new pilot bearing, clutch disc (from Ford F350 4.8 v8) is fitted and adjusted to original Toyota flywheel and pressureplate.. One setback came up yesterday. Clutch fork that i have does not fit pressure bearing neither belhousing. It's simply too wide.. I think its impossible to find one in Finland so probably have to make one myself.. Not easy thing to do i think... What kind of transmission oil should i use? And same question for rear axle.. There is couple new pics. All project pictures are now in: https://goo.gl/photos/DomdJdDkCtYSgWiLA Edited July 6, 2016 by Teemu Quote
Teemu Posted August 26, 2016 Author Report Posted August 26, 2016 (edited) There is no new pics, but i ended up going with homemade hydraulic release bearing. Next week i'll finish that cylinder and after that i'll send some pics.. Is there any chance to find 22,5" wheels with this 6-lug pattern? New 9.00-20 costs 350euros/piece here (~400usd) and used ones are rare and really bad.. Edited August 26, 2016 by Teemu Quote
wayfarer Posted August 26, 2016 Report Posted August 26, 2016 Nice work on the adapter! Can you get 19.5" tires ? There are several applications using 19.5" on 6 lug. Quote
Teemu Posted August 29, 2016 Author Report Posted August 29, 2016 Thanks! wayfarer 19.5 are pretty common here, but they are usually 8-bolt "euro" pattern. And one set i measured were with too small diameter to fit those bigass brake drums.. But any info for 19.5 wheels that will fit on these dums is welcome. Quote
wayfarer Posted August 29, 2016 Report Posted August 29, 2016 The wheels I am familiar with are from the Izusu NPR. Basic info as follows: 6 Lug 19.5" x 6" Accuride, bolt holes are 1¼" dia. 8¾" bolt circle 6 1/2" center hole Quote
