The original plan was to go 2UZ but did some trading and got this one for basically free. I have ad video of it running but didn't know how to attach it without posting it on YT or something and then linking it.
This is where it is currently sitting. A few things that I have and need to get installed are:
S10 fuel Tank
Minitruck booster and master cylinder
Hydraulic clutch / pressure plate / friction disc (about to order)
Get steering finished
This project started March of 2020. Me and my dad found a 73 FJ40 that had been sitting in a field for a very long time. We went through it and there had been water sitting in the cylinders. We ended up finding another 73 that had a "better" body. We decided that we wanted to go with a 1uz...
Slowly.. I got my Saginaw box mocked up and need to finish it. But for the engine and trans I was talking with California Custom Clutches and he can the pressure plate and friction disc but i have not ordered yet because I am still trying to figure out the throw out bearing.
That’s the plan right now. I was going to run the cj5 clutch setup I saw on the other thread but then I saw this thread so I am unsure of what setup to run now. I want something that is easy so people can actually buy the clutch parts and an adapter for reasonable prices.
I would definitely be interested in selling the adapters but I don’t want to sell something idk if it works or not. And the transmission was actually from a sequoia (2uz auto) if I remember correctly. I went and pulled a bell housing off in a pull a part yard.
The bolt pattern for the adapter...
I took lots of measurements and modeled it up. Here are some pics with the input shaft in the pilot bearing and what not also. I would be interested in selling adapters if i could confirm that it works bit i don't see why it wouldn't.
Hey just read through this and didn't know if there was any update
Here is what i am messing with and i am at the point that i need to get the clutch setup.
This is a factory 1uz and 1uz bellhousing mounted to an h55f with an adapter that i designed and had machined.
