    3FE but no ECU

    I am in the process of wiring a 3FE in my 40. I used the complete engine harness and a pigtail of the Main. spliced to a new fuse box and harness. Put the ECU in the glove box.

    71 fj40 3f engine swap

    assuming this is manual transmission, you have to remove the flywheel to get to the bolts that hold the housing to the motor. I spin the flywheel by hand to get to each of the bolts. Obviously have to remove the clutch and pressure plate to get to the flywheel bolts. Assembly is the reverse.

    3FE conversion in a FJ40

    Here is a picture of the tab that you have to grind down about 1/4" to get the brake booster to fit. I am using the booster off the '78. Mounted the ECU in the glove box and cut a hole in the back of the box to run the front wiring harness and the pig tail of the rear harness. Mounted...

    3FE conversion in a FJ40

    With the tub on I decided to go ahead and strip the inside, clean and paint with truck bedliner so I can start running wire. Only a few rust spots on the outside of the truck and will not effect the inside of the tub. Pulled the new Centek wiring harness - wiring was pretty hacked up on...

    3FE conversion in a FJ40

    Next step was to paint the Frame with Chassis Saver I then mounted the 3FE on the Chassis Tips - us the 3FE motor mounts in the front. You will have to enlarge the bolt holes a little to get the right fit. Took five minutes. I used the 4 speed trany from the 78. The fly wheel...

    3FE conversion in a FJ40

    Couple of members asked me to post up my conversion to a 3FE in my FJ40. I have more pictures that I will post when I figure out how to get a decent resize from a kodak disposable I used at the beginning. I am starting with a little history, currently I am running the new wiring harness...

    Pulling motor. easy way?

    I have pulled both ways. Much easier assembly with the trany and tcase out. If you decide to pull just the engine, be sure to support the tranny and tcase. Both supported by the engine mounts. I have reassembled the engine and tranny after the leaving the tranny behind. Alignment is a chore...

    New Tub question/feedback

    I have only purchased Ironpig's custom parts. Everything has been top notch and nothing had to be altered to fit my rig. Lance makes a killer replacement bed for the 40. Not stock, but looks awesome and will last a lifetime. If I was closer to Ironpig, I would have used them for more fabrication...

    Help with 4spd. Tranny

    I have a tranny and transfer case you can have. It would need to be cleaned up and gone through. No idea if it works. PO had it sitting in the back of the truck when I purchased. I am in KC. I will shoot you an email as well Scott
