Brilliant content. I love the level of skills you fellas have. I met Ash from Fusion fab when I was over from the Uk for a few parts for my M57n2/ 8hp into mt series 4 patrol. Another propper craftsman. I was well impressed with his workshop and his really helpful attitude definitely recommend.

the gearbox crossmember is a crossmember and should be fixed to the chassis without bushings to tie the two frame rails together solidly. the bushings should be between the gearbox and crossmember only. the only way to do it properly the way you have it now is to add an additional fixed crossmember or heavy skidplate. but if the gearbox crossmember was solid mounted a skidplate could've been attached straight to that.

The moment I seen the 8 Speed AU crew auto swapping a 79 series with a BMW ZF 8HP70X grabbed a low K box for my 80 and tucked it away in the corner of the man cave for one day, The patrol trans adapter from Fusion Fab looks awesome, hope they have one for Toyota HF1/2A some day soon.

The 8hp is a BMW gearbox and is in many other cars like Jaguar, Range Rover and and. BUT there is an Aussi company making the RR auto-boxes much stronger then original. Which company is that?

Great info. Excellent build. Geez there’s some extra cost mounting up the 8 speed tranny. It’s quite interesting though cause I got tired of refuelling my barra lol
@DesignedandBuilt3 ай бұрын
One thing I should have mentioned was that we built it because of the power output of the Barra we are using. It would be much cheaper to put it behind mine with 300KW say because it wouldn't need to be built!

Can I ask who is signing off the engineering for registration?? For my latest build, the engineer wants either, factory engine/trans mounts from the chassis or the engine/trans combo, he doesn't like my captive mounts, that are essentially the same as yours. Otherwise, another awesome build, that's coming from a boosted LS or 3JZ(turbo 1FZ) guy.

I do wonder witch back end pattern is on the BARRA..... is it Ford or is it something else? Did he say that the BMW 6 speed was on the engine and the 8 speed was with a different pattern and that`s why they made the aluminium ring to put the gearbox and the BARRA together.

Hey Adam, since the beginning I’ve always worked with companies that I believe in! Unfortunately I’ve outgrown my tiny little shed space for some jobs like engine/cab mounting and heavy chassis work. While it’s all possible it takes 2-3 times longer without the plasma table and the other resources and I’m time poor. This build will be back in my shed in a few months time to finish off the back end of it. Hopefully I can afford a bigger space of my own in a few years time, saving my pennies!
