Yep, I live in QLD and have the same dilema with the handbrake on the rear of the gearbox. My Stout is a 1981 model (hilux cab) and is still in reasonable condition. It is registered and I use it regularly but it uses a lot of fuel for a 2lt engine. I have changed the diff centre for a landcruiser unit (straight swap) but it didnt improve the fuel economy much. Still about 16 mpg. I am currently investigating fitting a 3b diesel from a Dyna but may need to fit gearbox as well. I dont want to change it too much as I'm not sure how many of these vehicles came to Australia. Any clues from out there?
