Believe I have a 9/76 build. No plates anywhere, but
Frame VIN# FJ40-232040 Engine# 2F-114720 The engine has a huge hole in the block though, so have another engine I am trying to figure out where it came from. VIN 2F-534254. Maybe an early model FJ60. Anyone? Thanks, Mark __________________ TLCA# 11654 Click here for pics!

1972 with a 2F motor - serial # question
Forum is great, I plan on absorbing all info I can possibly handle so I can bore non-FJ owners at every opportunity. This is my first post so hopefully I don't make a grave rookie error . If I did, please let me know what it was so I can toe the line.
Here goes: 1972 FJ40-137491, frame and plate at drivers side door match. Motor is immaculate, block has glossy black paint, eat off valve cover, etc. No smoke, starts every time w/o any choke. It is a 2F which I know makes it right off the bat not the original motor. The serial says 2F-877067 and from everything I am reading in these threads, no one's serial even approaches this high of a number. What's the deal? Counterfeit Chinese motor? Candid camera gag? If it helps, drivers side number on block is 61014 which I believe means the motor was produced October 14th, 1976. Appreciate the help, especially to a South Floridian ![]() |

The 61014 is the casting number or part number of the block. Date code is on drivers side, near the back.
61014 is the late 2F block. FWIW, there is a block sitting here w/ casting date of Jan. 87, serial number is 877125. Too bad this one has a rod sticking out the side. __________________ Thanks, Jim C. TLC Performance Underhood Janitor, cleaning up other people's since 1988.

Right ok, so it's a replacement block that explains the appearance of it. Much respect to you guys, I'll keep reading up and learning. Still green here, but you may want to have that rod sticking out of your block checked by the experts at the local Jiffy Lube

JiffyLube says it ain't their fault. It wasn't like that when they worked on it.

Here's the poop on 4 of the 5 J40's in Dhahran, Saudi Arabia.
1975: 2F004501 / FJ40192817 1983: 2F677787 / FJ40359351 1984: 2F820370 / FJ40369092 1984: 2F821780 / FJ40316925 I used to own the 1975 - it had probably 1 of the last 3 speed trannys. I own the 1983 and 1984 in the middle. Saudi Arabia is Land Cruiser capitol of planet earth. There's 1 other 1978 running around Dhahran. hewitt_pat@hotmail.com (desertpat) |

61010 is the first 2F. 61011 is the first revision w/ the OPSU moved to the RH side. Probably a 76-78 engine. __________________ Thanks, Jim C. TLC Performance Underhood Janitor, cleaning up other people's since 1988.
