Hi all... If anyone has one of these that they are willing to rent or sell.... please get in touch. Cheers.

Cheers for your reply... :) Yep... for sure... certainly cutting another groove has been done before... for me... the Birfields (CV's) were due so it made sense... You are right... we dont think about the small stuff till you are doing it and it always turns into a bigger job that planned...

And just to update how its all going so far... its absolutely AWESOME!! :) The TJM Lockers work so well and the car drives so smooth... I was always a... "Mr Toyota did it that way so leave it" kinda guy... and not saying that he was wrong at all... They made the DX poverty packs part time...

Hi there and sorry for the late reply... Well... it can be as easy as changing them out... However, it depends on which CV's you have fitted. Dont quote me on the exact year... but Im pretty sure from mid 94 they changed the size of the CV shafts and went to the longer CV shafts... so, if you...

Cheers for the feedback... I dont like oil leaks so I try to keep on top of it all... Very happy with the result... We have been putting some miles on it and it drives AMAZING!! I cant explain the difference in how it drives... I know we are talking fresh drive train but wow!! Just a pic on how...

We buttoned up the 80 today... so happy how it all went together. Using Toyota parts made it easy... everything bolted up perfect! The only real modification was lengthening the rear tailshaft. The diff actuators came back after their mod and the throw was perfect. The CV's and FWH all went...

Oh... and the the smallest, but most important part of the whole conversion... The shift knob!!! :cheers:

There is progress... Transfer case has been rebuilt and ready to go. Diffs have been rebuilt and lockers fitted... Im just waiting on the actuators to come back after their little mod. Some fresh Aisin Free Wheeling Hubs... New Short CV's... from HDK Japan. Both Tail shafts had a...

Hi all Its been a while so thought I would post up the current shenanigan's that are going on with my old girl. (the 80... not the wife) What started out to be a leaking pinion seal on the front diff has turned out to be an accumulation of a number of "to do" projects in one hit. With mine...

Hi all... I am chasing some help on an electrical issue Im having on my FJ73. The engine fuse keeps poping and Im scratching my head trying to find the issue... Its a FJ73 3F Auto... The problem just appeared on start up one morning. It has been fine prior to that. I have done some trouble...

Absolutely stunning!!!

Oh.... and a BIG thank you to @gregnash for sharing this amazing resource! :clap::clap:

DFXR... thank you so much... that worked a treat... :) Now for some light reading....

Its awesome to see the mighty 80 getting a new lease of life... amazing work!!

Ive got the same problem... well... its never worked since ive had the car... is there a fault finding process for this? I didnt know there was a dash light also... :doh:

Has anyone got a 3F FSM to download? I found one but my Spanish isnt very good.... :)

Thanks you... yes... I can operate the secondaries by hand... as soon as the primary lock linkage lets go, the secondary open up fine... they just dont do it by themselves...

That was pre rebuild... it wasnt gasket goo as the gasket popped off easy. Prob just gunk prior to a wash... Post rebuild looks better... :)

Hi there... I have used Wholesale Automatics here in Australia... they are second to none for Auto trans work... I use megazip (similar to Amayama) for hard to get parts but depends on what my local Toyota Dealer can get hold of... Megazip works well for me... We are always limited here in...
