While I do have a W58 which aint for sale (for my Ute) an option for you to consider are the RWD hilux utes, W series from 2000 on in the diesels and the TGN16s have a RWD R150. Not sure about Vic but the wreckers in WA ask around $800 for them and you can fit the 154 gearsets which in the long term may cost you the same as a used R154 but give you the benefit of a practically brand new gearbox

Bought a W58

Thanks.. I bought a W58 over the weekend and am now just tracking down the rest of the parts I need.

I'm going to use an adaptor plate and std auto bell housing but need some guidance on:-
What sort of spiggot bearing / bush I need to use
Hydraulic Thrust bearing setup
Which gearbox slip yoke to use, one with a larger uni

Regards.. Ivan
