I got a NP205 with the PTO, the plan is to fabricate a strong linkage to avoid any failures. What I am thinking is about the worm/drive gear capacity...

April 12th: what a journey.... Currently building a 4link suspension with coilovers/pto winch/hydraulic piston steering. Some of these days will post the progress.

Hey guys, I am currently with a big LC 80 series project. I wanted a mechanical winch, I got my hands on a Braden LU2-10F: I am wondering has any experience with these type of winches. I've been researching on other sites and seems its rated 10,000LBS by Braden and 8,000LBS by Dodge. My...

Looking for one if anyone has one. Let me know.

Alright. I think there are several versions of the CT26 so I was uncertain if using one out of a 1HDT would work. It it just insulation used for interior roofs on houses. Works pretty well to be honest, keeps the firewall cold and isolate the sound of the motor a little bit

Hi guys, I've been thinking on adding a turbo onto my NA 13B. I got an OEM turbo from my 1HDT (CT26). The idea is to fabricate the turbo manifold from zero but I am uncertain if this turbo is a good fit. What do you guys think? Another option is a turbo out of a ZD30 (which I have to purchase)...

From personal experience these are my believes.... Diesels are perfect and un-matched when off-roading, the low-end torque is incredibly useful. I have seen slow B engines passing like nothing where as powerful gasolines cannot. I drove all Costa Rica with an old 78 with a slow B and there was...

LS is common and cheap here. Honestly all I want is to keep the car until the end of my days so keeping it Toyota is not a concern. I will save the 13B just in case. What I can tell you is that I want the looks to be OEM, rims, tires, paint, emblems, height... pretty much everything from the...

Yeah, I want 200-250 to the ground. The need for power is to be able to merge on the highway or overtaking easily... I have had more scares with slow cars than fast ones. I've been thinking about that... Diesel feels very powerful due to the low torque. I was able to get close to 200hp at the...

Brother, write me up. I'm in CR I can help you. I have contacts to help you putting another B in there which is the easier and cheapest option. Or if you want to take advantage and upgrade to a 14B is an option as well. Hit me up on with a DM

Hi guys, I recently purchased a bj40 with a 13B (non-turbo) engine, 4 speed everything OEM with power steering, brake disks and some other extras... I usually drive a lot on very steep hills and also do 50/50 highway/town driving. (I do not tow) I have an H151F/H2FA stored in my garage and got...

I got my hands on EWD169F (realized is the one I need), I will scan it and upload it of the 2nd week of March. I totally understand, this is why scanning them using an iPhone is the easiest way but takes some time.

Hi Guys, I trying to get this book. I wonder if someone has it and will be willing to scan it? Otherwise I will have to order it from a shady provider in Netherlands.

My bad. I meant CT12b not CT26. Yeah, I am sure you'll find something, they are easy and cheap to rebuild if necessary. I just updated my 80s post here
