Now for the transmissions 1st the Nissan 720 transfer case simple 2hwd neutral hi 4x4 lo 4x4 modified shifter on case to use morse cable
Toyota Hi Ace diesel 5speed using a Dellow conversions bell housing
this is the bellhousing & McLeod concentric clutch cylinder
to get a 10&1/2 inch clutch to suit the rover flywheel * Toyota spline I used a Daihatsu delta kit 1 problem arose out of this set was the thrust face on the bearing was the wrong sie & nothing available to fit it so had the Engineer make a sleeve to press fit onto McLeod bearing to run against the pressure plate fixed that 1 here is what it looks like
this is the finished modified bearing note the round face on the pressure plate face
the next mod was to the speedo drive I had to have the red drive machined down to fit into the electronic unit out of the Hi Ace box along with a sleeve to adapt into the Nissan trans case
This the early set up of the 2 transmissions now to join them in the limited room available the Nissan use a short drive shaft with slip yoke ^ 2 uni joints I may have to try this later if my 1st concoction doesn't work more on that next
this is the space to fill
these are the parts involved in the drive unit between the transmissions
Hi Ace slip yoke bus axle flange from gearbox cut down bus axle machined to press into the Nissan machined uni joint flange
prior to welding assembled to check length then completed
then it becomes this
and this is where it ends up
the front tailshaft is a standard length commodore
stationwagon. It just has to have a rear diff flange put on the front to replace the slip yoke
