This link has exchange Hino boxes,,, try them they may just know how to source one if they won't accept yours as a trade.
Good luck there are heaps out there just a matter of finding one,,, many will bolt on so suggest you try to contact them and let them solve the problems for you,,, I'm sure they will.
Cheers Baz

Your could also look at fitting another gearbox, like a small road ranger, or allison auto. Lots around and pretty cheap, don't know of any in Tas, earlier last year up at Exeter there was a hino engine and gearbox for sale, they had 4 or 5 school buses and heaps of Hino parts.
