Thanks for the response and help!

Thank you for the response and suggestions! I plan to replace both.

There should be a pulley there, right? How could it have come off? The bolts are still in there, or is that the pulley and it's ground flat? Thanks for the response.

My cruiser threw the AC accessory belt on my way to work and when I went to replace it, it looks like the pulley on the crankshaft is either missing or ground down. Photos attached. I'm wondering if I need to replace the pulley or just put a new one on?

Any idea what would cause a torque converter not to lock up properly? John

Thank you. the transmission seems to shift correctly but I will have a look. It's cool in the mornings here in CA, but warms up in the afternoon. I will also reach out to Georg at Valley Hybrids. Thanks!

Thanks for the response! Yes, I changed the filter, solenoids, and fluid recently.

I swapped my 1HZ for a 1HDT which bolted up to the original A442F transmission. Now the transmission is constantly overheating even though I've added an external cooler. Does anyone have an idea of what could be causing this? Thanks.

Thanks for that! I assume if I have an ECT button, it's the electronic version. I've been dealing with overheating of the transmission for the last few months and thought if I changed out the solenoids it might help.

Yes, it has an OD button on the shifter and solenoids.

I'm getting mixed info on which transmission my 1992 JDM (RHD) Land Cruiser has. The engine compartment plate says A440F while the filter and solenoids are for the A442F. Would Toyota put an A442F in a cruiser yet stamp A440F on the info plate?

Thanks for the info and feedback Stuart!

Thanks, Guy. Would the gauge come with the temp sensor or would I need to buy a sensor separately? So I'll need the fitting, the temp sensor, and the gauge? John

Clint, Thanks for the great response and for taking the time to answer my question. John

Has anyone installed a temperature gauge to an A442F transmission to monitor fluid temps? If so, can you provide some insight into the process and recommend a gauge? Thanks.
