Correct, Aisin clutch kit and bearing. Leaning towards a backwards TOB. Thread was following parts compatibility between an early '74 1.5F and later model 2F. FJ60 2F is now in, installed, and running great. Only issues are the clutch swap which I had done concurrently. This was a factory 4...

Thanks, should have mentioned, slave is completely disconnected here, we had pulled it off for a new hydraulic system and we're moving the fork by hand.

View thru the inspection cover as we're chasing down the noise, first clutch job. I noticed the clip is touching the back of the TOB, but that side should not spin, correct? New bearing seems right still, here's a video of the movement. Noticing now the throw out bearing and carrier direction...

Finally got a chance to look at the clutch issue (cruiser is at my parent's). Mechanic said the new throw out (Aisin) was a snug fit on the carrier. Going to try to lube the throw out thru the fork window. Otherwise, sounds like a bad (new) or bound bearing. Anything else I could be missing...

Updating, I was able to get all the supporting clutch pieces (pivot, fork, carrier, slave) from BNB. I had already gotten a later model bellhousing, but missed some obvious details (below). The rest of the engine swap went well. Sourced the smallest clutch compatible fan and a few other odds...

Thanks for the replies. Donor engine came with the clutch, but no fan, so I will source a fan and pulley. Next goof, I ordered a diaphragm clutch kit since I had a factory 4 speed. Already had the 2F flywheel resurfaced. I've got the three finger clutch, build date 6/74, so just missed the...

In the middle of an engine swap on a '74 40 series that has (had) a 1.5F with Saginaw PS. The 2F that is going in was sourced from a desmogged 85 FJ60 with the oil cooler and still has the fan clutch. The 1.5F locked down while driving; haven't opened it up yet to determine if it was a heat or...

Bump for price drop! Found what I was looking for a lot quicker than I was expecting. Ready to move on to the next build!

Yes! Looks like its in great shape. I've had my eye on it. Waiting on the FJC to go before I make a move, I've had a couple interested so far

Well, some of you have helped guide me in the right direction. I am officially ISO a pre-facelift 200. Located in SC, but I am willing to travel pretty much anywhere in the US for the right one. In other news, my FJC is listed over in that section if anyone is looking for a nicely built Trail...

Hi everyone, I am listing my FJ in hopes of finding and building a more "family friendly" 200. The Trail Teams package is of course 4x4 and the 1 of 2500 in 3L5 Radiant Red. Current mileage is 85500; it is my DD so it will continue to rise. It has been an awesome rig and has gone everywhere I...
