the 2h is a 4L 6 cylinder right? and the 3b is a 3.4L 4 cyl? I know the 1980 shorty 40 diesel came with a 3L 4cyl, curious to know if the troopies, utes were similar for around that time.

Blackman,

The utes and troopys (in the early to mid 70's) also had a H or 1H motor which was a 3.6L straight 6 diesel. Not much power and getting hard to find parts for them now.

Cheers,
Hughesy

"H" motor was used up until 1980 then the "2H" till 84, was also in the Hj75 till 1Hz was used.
