Peter.
There's a 2U carcass in toowoomba but it can be difficult to get part's of them.
2U will be a different part number but the complete clutch should fit.
Bit of a job to do what you have to do but good lifting equipment helps.
Tillys handed me blank linings that were not drilled recently so I declined them and used some blank linings like already had.
Make sure to replace the bull pinion seals while you are in there.

Testimonials

"I also joined a year ago. had been on here a couple of times as a non-member and found the info very helpful so I got a one year subscription (not very expensive at all) to try it out. I really like all the resources on here so I just got a three year. I think its a very small price for what you can get out of this site."
