Rat Trap for HK to HZ. I'll scan the pages from my HJ catalog for you if you want?
It looks like a standard lower retainer for the spare wheel - not the GTS rim version - checkout pic's in Oz's Workshop threads - http://www.mysandman.com.au/forums/s...el-winch/page3
Would be great if you could Blocker
Looks like my retainer has been modified with fatter ends?

to my knowledge the rear sway bar was part of the RTS package fitted to HZ as part of the model changes, so if it is a HJ then it shouldnt have one, no.
regarding the clutch, i thought they were all cable??? anyone able to send me a good link on what this means? google wasnt too helpful

Rear swaybars where part of the RTS package yes. The diff had mounts welded on not u bolts also ;)
Clutch. Rat trap was used in HJ. Half cable/half mechanical started in HX sometime I think? HZ had full cable clutch. hmmm hoping I got that close.
Spacer bushes on the steer pump dont look to be thick enough. Being picky I know. Originals where about 7/8 in dia. Where as those look to be 3/4 at the most. Or 1/2 pipe maybe. Maybe they are just too long making them look smaller? Will have to measure some for you.
Bottom pully on motor. Aslong as its a 2 V and hasnt got the extra 1 V bolted onto it its correct. The extra front V was used for the A/C.

If those spacers are to long on the pump it would run the belt off? It must be running in the front ac groove on a triple pulley? Hard to see though. Good luck finding a 2 groove pulley.
wiper motor is correct for early hj with the pump...
bottom pulley on motor is commodore hence the long spacers on the pump.hq to wb pulley,1st v should be hard against harmonic balancer not an inch out..
rear sway bar is aftermarket correct and is seen on plenty of utes vans up to hz..last hj sandman i wrecked had exactly that same bar and is now going on sinbox...not all utes/vans/tonners ive wrecked over the years had sway bar brackets welded to diffs.
clutch arrangement is full rat trap no cable for hq hj..
pbr master cylinder is the correct replacement for the old cast large nut..

Excellent info guys. Will get photos for the pulley today. With the replacement of a safety item like master cylinder, are the judges at car shows removing points for such a replacement?
Hopefully anyone else restoring a HJ will find the info valuable here. The knowledge people have here is invaluable

the judges at car shows dont even know what they are looking at most of the time..do it for yourself troy and not a judge...
the internet has made experts of everyone and seeing as its faceless that meens there is all these 16 year old experts ...dont start me..:Texas::Texas::Texas:
I hear ya mate
I guess for me it's one of those things where i would like to get it as close to how it rolled out or the dealer but with upgraded safety in mind.
It's when judges get down to details like...theres too many threads showing on the back side of the bolt that retains the seatbelt....thats when they loose me.
I just want people to sit in it and say "So this is what they were like in the day"
