No the bundera was a 70 or 71 depending on motor and swbfb delivery wrote: ↑Mon Feb 08, 2021 12:53 am Arn't the Bunderas a 74 series
I might be thing of the HZJ 76
i have HJ 75 with a12HT and a HZJ 75
The "prado" 1990 - 1996 with hilux motor and box (previously bundera 85-89 in Aus) could be had in swb 70 71, mwb 73, 4 door wagon 77 and 78 series, same body as current 4 door wagon wagon but shorter nose cone to suit 4cyl. Dont be confused with the current 4 door land cruiser being a prado as its a continue on from the 1990 hzj77 wagon which has the heavy duty running gear same as hzj75 etc.
This is why the new prados are called landcruiser prado as they once shared the same body firewall back as the landcruiser
hilux front diff only same thing to a landcruier was the ring gear size. hilux front diff used the same as "rear diff" so the drive was on the weaker side of the gears, the landcruiser front diff 8" but reverse cut much stronger
That hilux gearbox r151 came behind the 1hz 105 series and hzj78 troopy and hzj79 series
The v8 ,turbo 6 and petrol landcruiser come with the big box h150 or h151.
sorry im a full landcruiser geek
My child hood was old holdens and old 40-47 series landcruisers
Well done Errol they are a nice wagon and a sweet note from a muffler delete.
If you want comfier seats for the missus NZ seems to have a lot of wrecked jdm kzj78 wagons
