Hoping to get some insight on what direction I should go with a shifting issues on my 08 470.
The issue: when asking for acceleration around 30 MPH, the car seems to hesitate a bit and then harshly downshift. The feeling ranges from a slight thud to feeling like I got lightly rear ended. It...
I'm new here. Hi.
I've owned 4 Toyota's over the last 15 years and currently have 2 in my driveway. My wife's 2000 LX470 (195k miles) and my 2019 Tundra Limited (73k miles). I have vowed to never take my cars to a mechanic again. I feel competent on the basics (fluid changes/brakes/spark...
Hey everyone. I’ve been using my ultra gauge to keep track of my transmission temps on my 2013 LX with the 6 speed AB60F. I’ve been seeing torque converter temps as high as in the 230s when accelerating up grades during cross country highway trips. Pan temps are normally around 185 - 195...
I'll be pulling the B series motor from my Fj45 to swap in a 3B.
The B series motor has 200,000 km on it and I also have a 4speed with the emergency brake drum on the back of the transmission.
Wondering what they each are worth ?
FOR SALE PARTOUT
Pulled Engine and Trans from a 1997 FZJ80 40 yr Ann with 190,000ish miles on them. The truck drove fine in the months I drove it daily but needed work.
-This part you can skip. Just a "why'' to parting out.-
upon finding out that I needed to redo the HG and timing guide...
Any ideas on where I can get some armor? I have searched a few up and found promising leads out of Australia, but wondering if any here in the states? Maybe I just need to have some fabbed up by a shop here? Any way just looking for some leads to help close this out on my list of TO-Dos!

I have a "new to me" 2014 4WD 4Runner with $85k mileage that the Toyota dealer has identified a TC leak.
The strange thing is this does not appear to be a dripping leak, but has a small amount on the case.
Have others chosen to replace gaskets and what have you spent to repair this leak? The...
New to the forum. New to the Brits, so ignorant on them. I'm helping my son with a 1993 110 build. He is thinking going with the BMW n54 & the 8HP45 trans. Me personally, no fan of BMW due to $$$. Reading on here with some of the n45 engines, sounds like issues. I'd rather do a 6.0 LS engine due...
Rebuilt A442F with new converter
Work done by local transmission shop owner with 40 years experience. I have $2000 in it. I’ll take $1500 to IH8mud member or tlca member. Located in central Ohio.
Doing the TorFab engine swap on my 91 80 Series and need the adapter from the A343 transmission and the 6 bolts that hold it to the transfer case (PN: 35015-60070). Shipped to 76103.
I've started to have some issues on some of the higher elevation passes here in Colorado. Had an issue up Berthoud Pass yesterday which is a 6.3% grade at its steepest point. When I get around 2.5k RPM in any gear it will start to stutter and blow some dark grey and black smoke. I cannot get it...
Hi all, I'm manual swapping my 1994 KZN130 1kzte Hilux surf. Currently stuck on dropping the auto box out. Have pretty much everything done except for the torque converter/ flex plate bolts. I'm told there's supposed to be a access window in the bottom of the bellhousing. I have some foam there...
$300, pick up only
Swapping 3FE into my 40 so don’t need the trans. Was told it worked fine but have not personally ever run it. No metal flakes in fluid, output shaft is a bit worn though. Comes with torque converter, flywheel, and bell housing.
Just paid what is probably a record high to get my trans rebuilt, the genius forgot to torque the drain plug back so it fell out somewhere on the highway and I drove the gx a couple miles while it leaked all over the place. When I finally parked and turned it off is when it really started...
This upcoming weekend I'm wanting to do a 12 quart transmission fluid flush and filter change. It looks like several different people make filters for these transmissions and I understand they're basically just wire mesh but is there a preferred brand of transmission filter people go with as...
Getting ready to ship my 80 from NC and im trying to figure out the shipping weight. It currently has no engine, trans, accessories, AC lines or condenser in it.
I know a fully dressed 3fe and accessories is about 700-750 lbs but I have no clue about the a440 trans. I know it's big and heavy...
