Phils TD42Ti (was RD28T)

[florix]

Engine is in and running now. The roof rack is off and the car loos naked haha. I dont have my 35" tyres yet. The speedo is out and hopefully will be fixed when they are on. 55 is really 60 and 120 is really 100. not sure if this is exact as I am just using GPS speedo atm, it could be 5 out too.

After all the confusion with how to do the conversion I found out its rather easy. All you need is the gearbox cross member and the tail shaft from both so you can change them to suit by pulling one end off and placing it in the other. Get some engine brackets made up to bolt onto the engine and if your going from a rd28t then you need the clutch lines as its on the other side of the box but the ZD30 isnt. There is no need to cut your chassis at all. Plus a radiator. Then you just get Kustom Kables to make you the wiring loom so you dont have to pull your dash out and kick her over. If you have it all sorted its really a 3-4 day job. However Due to rain and finding what is needed along the way It took me a Cruisy two and a half weeks.


Waiting on the winch bracket so I can put in the new 12000lb winch. When the roof rack goes back on she will look normal again

All I can say is the power is amazing, huge difference! Dont regret the change. Even chipped and 3" on a 2.8 doesnt compare to a standard TD42Ti
