    Auspecial's GQ

    Hey all,

    Starting a build thread for my patrols, I recently repurchased my original GQ td42 wagon that I first bought in 2008/9. Nowadays she is a bit of a rust heap but the engine is happy and healthy. As such I recently bought a super clean tb42 efi GQ wagon and planning to swap the engines. Never attempted a job this big before but I'm excited at the prospect and will be starting the job in a couple of weeks time. Will be doing lots or reading on the forum at other peoples swaps.

    At the moment while I have the engine out I am planning to replace the clutch, rear main seal, and get a bung welded into the sump for when I eventually wack a turbo on her. Anything else I should be looking at doing? What clutch kits do people recommend? I was looking at the Exedy sports tuff clutch from Patrolapart for $575.

    Pic is of the new patrol. Will get photos as I complete the swap and update this thread.
