I'm in!

Diesel owners mark your calendars! We're going for a third consecutive year for our oddball diesel meet in Helena. We will meet up at the State Capitol starting around 10 AM on Saturday, October 17 to hang out, talk diesels and check out each...

So, this isn’t a GCC truck. It’s a JDM truck that was imported. Don’t lie and say “consistent with its GCC origin.” There is nothing GCC about this truck. If the “chassis and frame have never been modified” how would a RHD to LHD conversion...

Sorry I missed it! I worked late into the night in Friday re-sealing my rear diff. Turns out that there were layers of old paper gasket material on the housing and the pumpkin. Spent another 4 hours on it Saturday and got it finished up...

Awesome - thanks again 🙏

This is all awesome, thanks for the feedback. I’m currently running a sag power steering set up. Assuming I move or eliminate the stock heater valve, do you foresee the H42 and 2F bellhousing in the factory location working? I understand I’d need...

Keep in mind if you do a v8 or v6 the bellhousing will sit 6" forward so the heads clear the firewall. I would determine how you want to use the 40, how complex do you want it, how easy/difficult to repair, and what character or feel you want it...

Just came across your thread and following…I too am considering the 2uz for a ‘72 40 with a Chevy 305 and stock 3 speed 🙄. I talked to @bagochips76 on the phone about his kit. I might be crazy but was thinking about a trip up there to test drive...

@OlYellr I feel like we met a rehab.. Absolutely love the inline look of the 1fz…it’s a natural. But, thinking the 2uz may be the wallflower princess at the dance.

I’m not sure if you’re feeding the "garden crew" or baiting your next engine-swap enabler with your post. I’m afraid I’m no help talking you off the ledge. I’m standing on the same one. I have a 1FZ sitting on an engine stand in my garage, with...

Wile away the hours in an off hand way. Given the opportunity and no domestic supervision, I’ll occasionally take to fits of aimless wandering. Today is one of those opportunities. Having no particular obligations or self imposed commitments...

Bring it! Happy to let you test drive my 40. But if you are going to do it, do it soon before the snow flies!

You bet! It should work but since I have not done it, I can not confirm. Regarding your sag PS, you may need to install another joint to be able to make the pathway to the gear box work. Hope this helps!

Adapter kits are back in stock! At the moment I have 5 available and several inquiries. Looks like a 3rd production run will move forward.

Oops. Sorry I missed this last post you made. Yes, our adapter will work for your application. Our engine mounts for 40 series on the other hand will not work for your application unless you move the drivetrain forward. We designed them to...

Sorry for the late reply. If its an FJ40 with an H42 then it its not a fine splined shaft. Its course splined and our adapter will work for your application.

Thanks Mark!

Forgive me if this is a stupid question, but is a similar conversion possible with a h55 to a 1fze? Is there a kit in the works? FJ co sadly discontinued their bell-housing but I’m wondering if an adaptor plate would be enough. I love the...

It’s in the works!

The mounts are the same regardless of rhd or lhd. Send me a pm.

Looking forward to the 60series RHD engine mounts being available, whats the time frame ? Will you ship to Australia?.

They don't make a bolt for the the application. They make them for years pre and post 73-74. The one I need is 145mm. The ones ARP makes are 122mm.

I am in need of 1 head bolt for an F1.5 engine. This would be for engines manufactured between 9/73 and 1/75 per the Toyota parts diagram. Realistically it will be from a '73-'74 year model truck. The bolts in engines before and after this...
