I bought this truck in 2011 out of BC, legally imported and has been a regular driver since then. It has the 3b Toyota diesel in it, this motor is extremely reliable and lasts forever, plus fuel efficient, average 20 mpg, has h55f 5 speed transmission.
Came stock with AC. Originally had around...
I’m looking at this as a potential purchase, seller has been pretty open about everything, it was in this accident last year, declared total loss, then bought at auction by current seller.
Runs and drives, no airbag deployed. Has around 170k.
Doesn’t appear to be any frame damage, I would...
I replaced my alternator with a spare yesterday while trying to figure out some other problems (my other recent post about blinkers causing the edic to shut the engine down details this) but I thought post a sep post about this. This didn’t fix my shut down problems either.
after the alternator...

I have a 1985 bj60, with a 3b, 5 speed, canadian 12v. It was a body off restore about 12 years ago.
When it gets hot out, and the truck has been running for a bit, when I use either of my blinkers, it will trip the EDIC momentarily and then the motor will stumble and then catch again, rarely...
I appear to have lost this, although nothing is loose yet.
I cant find a size of the bolt though, Ive searched here and online. Dorman makes a generic toyota one for like $12, but not sure will fit. Anybody have this size? Thanks!
Thanks!!
I recently noticed a new noise from the transmission or transfer case in my 85 bj60, 3b motor. Its mainly with 1,2, and 3rd when downshifting. no sticking gears, or grabbing, still shifts smooth, drives normally but seems to be the synchro or something when downshifting under load. i attached...

I have a 1985 BJ 60, with a turbo 3B. Was completely rebuilt last spring. Running great. Recently I drove about five hours, stopped the car for about half an hour, and wouldn’t start, not even turn over.
This is not the edic either.
I checked that first, took the arm off, was not it.
It’s...
I know there are lots of threads but couldn’t find a answer. Any help would be great as this is my daily driver.
1985 bj60, engine rebuilt 5 months ago(15k Km’s) by certified diesel mechanic and cruiser guy(who’s helping me, but on Vancouver Island and not the best cell coverage). Turbo is only...
Posting this more as an example of one with high miles, and still going! 726k!
Ive heard stories of more, but this one shows on the odometer.
I asked the seller, no hx of rebuild, hes had for 15 years. I hope my rebuilt 3b lasts this long...
Not sure this is tech or not, but posting here.
Recently had my 3b rebuilt by Jonathan Hebden, with Firestorm Mechanical on Vancouver Island.
Jonathan was professional, communicated well and honest the entire time. Does great work too!
Have about 3k miles on the rebuild and running great. Had...
Need a 3b engine for my Bj60, running or not, if its just the block that's fine too, don't need to be complete just solid.
Ideally in Washington state or BC.
Thanks!
Not sure where to go with this, and searching didn't turn up anything helpful.
1985 Bj60 with 3b/h55f, 460kms, randomly started shutting down when shifted into reverse, I can have clutch pushed in, motor warm, and even just start to slide into reverse and it shuts down, not stalling, but like...
Sorry if this is considered a double post, but I wasnt getting much help on my other post.
Short story, 2001 lx470 115k miles, transmission is shot. Its going to cost me about $4300 to either have shop rebuild or have a reman installed. Rebuild has a better warranty and then I dont have pay the...
