Had some time to get to Brutus that’s been waiting. FJ140 build is waiting on 4x4 labs DIY kit. Wanted to get labs wings installed to see if i need to lower body mounts any. Killing time, wanting to do something different, I cut and buffed...
As with all 40 owners, and especially the early ones, the hunt for parts to replace ones lost to time is a constant endeavor. A couple parts that I have been hunting for a while now are the early rear soft top bracket parts! Then like a...
Specs should be the same between countries of origin. The difference will lie in years of production. Any 3b will fit, just move your B mounts over to the 3b block. I can't overstate the recommendation to update to 3b at minimum.
I run 3.70 with H55F and (true) 33's on my HJ-61. It is a bit tall but the 12H-T revs low. Shift points are inconvenient and reverse is wicked tall. I sometimes need to shift to 4 Lo when parking or backing a trailer.
I swapped diffs to 4.11...
I have had my 12ht vented to atmosphere for at least a couple years. I was getting oily residue prior to doing this and expected to get a few drops from the hose while parked. I can say with confidence it has never left a drop on my drive since...
Hi EO,
Thanks for the reply:
Up on the Northern Tablelands we do drop to -8 *C in the winter (about the lowest we've seen - cold enough that the tank water pump froze!). BUT talking to a mate who has run a 12HT in his HJ47 for the last 25/30...
So, a 1,000km road trip resulted in the 13B-T and a lot of accessory parts, hard lines and other bits that might be useful.
And all of this:
Next up is remove the 3B for saving for spare part salvage for a mate who has a BJ40.
Yes it was purchased from Nurik on here. He updated this thread in Dec of 22 but informed me he hasn't been with this company for almost two years. I have contacted them directly and they have not provided an explanation or resolution.
Yeah the 15bf seems to be solid but I haven't road tested it just yet. Thank you for posting it on here. The adventure to pick it up alone was worth it to me.
Hey all,
I've been researching land cruisers for a pan Americana trip (cliché, I know) and continuously find myself on this site reading information so I finally decided to create an account.
I have found a vehicle which I believe fits my...

Fark, FTE rocker cover. Late and incorrect??? Where did you order from?
Potentially not even ideal for spares for the 15BFT as people say the 15BFTE blocks and timing covers etc are not compatible. Looks like they didn't ship it with an ECU etc...
