Will the Complete A/C system from 12v BJ60 work on 85 BJ70?

Guys,

Do you think that the A/C system from 85 BJ60 will work on bj70? The only thing that can create a problem is evaporator?

Thanks,
Alex

I would think you would want a 70 specific evap case and by far the most expensive of all the pieces.

Plus a lot of the parts are no longer available from Toyota. I think your best bet is to get all the parts out of a market where BJ70s came with A/C.

i have a complete system less under dash box and compressor sitting here for a 70 series... actually if i decide to remove the system from my newish bush rig then you can have the entire system... it is for RHD though...
cheers

been there, done that...If you want this to look clean and factory, you'll need a LHD specific Evap case (I'm assuming youre LHD?). Mine was about $750 USD 4 yrs ago and was ordered new out of Japan. You also need the wiring harness & idle up (hard to get now), the 7X condensor & the 7X hard lines....the other parts could probably be salvaged from the 60. I went with all new parts and the bill was about $2,000 back when the USD was strong.
