Isuzu 4HE1 Swap

ThePookieBear · 09-05-08, 07:14 AM

Hey guys. I figured I would reanimate this thread. Oddly enough I was the last poster a few months back. Has anyone worked on this swap anymore? There are many questions left unanswered. Has the output shaft been swapped to the AW450? Has anyone found out if it needs a lift to clear. Seray76, did you ever start your swap?

Hey, found some interesting info on the 4HE1. I haven't had time to wade through it all yet; many pages and I'm at school, but it covers the electrical and stuff I think. http://lilaw.info/images/Manuals/LG4H-WE-9691.pdf

Also, I found out that if you don't need a lift for the 4BD2T, then you most likely won't for the 4HE1. Its only .8 (yes point 8) inches taller and 1.6 inches wider than the 4BD2T. The only places they really differ is in length. The 4HE1 is 14.6 inches longer, although with our long I-6 engines, I doubt that would be a problem. Its 25 kgs heavier than the 4BD2T, 803 pounds total. I have a post here... Isuzu 4BD2T or 4HE1 - Cummins 4BT Forums that may interest some. So far, not much response. I may copy and re-post it up here. Thanks.

I picked up a wrecked truck with the 4HE1TC with the intention of eventually swapping it in to my FJ62. Sorting things out, I found that it had a small electric vacuum pump in addition to the one on the back of the alternator. There is a "low vacuum" switch on the vacuum tank that turns on a "Brake" light and also turns on the vacuum pump. This pump may be an alternative for those who don't want to use the alternator vacuum pump. I is mounted in the cab, in front of the instrument cluster.

Any more info on the 4HE1 Swaps? I'm getting a 62 and there's an NPR with the 4HE1 that needs to be rebuilt for $900 total truck and all. It got some Hurricane Katrina water though. Good deal? Swappable?
