transmission swap

Hi All On my other threads conversation is getting away from topic so I am starting a new thread. I have had an adapter built to use a Ford 6R80 behind my 1FZ using stock transfer case. I will post about that here, and also info on different transmission controllers available for the swap...

Hi all, I am looking to do a manual transmission swap to my currently auto 1kz 94 Surf. Has anyone else done this using donor parts from an NA 4runner? I have a parts 3.0 2nd gen 4runner with a R150F. My main concern is that the Bellhousing currently attaching my 1KZ to it's auto trans wont...

Hi Guys, new here and new to owning an 2001 LC100. I live in Botswana and I recently got one for a daily driver. It has a 4speed auto trans and the previous owner mentioned changing the trans at around 270k its at 285k rn. I have an ask, can I swap the 4speed for a 5speed in later models? I...

Hello all! I’m new to the forum but I’ve owned these two FJ’s going on 12 years. The blue rig is the 67 and I’m ready to dig into it. I live in South Carolina so hard core rock crawling isn’t common. Most of the wheeling we do is dirt roads and swampy land. I plan to use the 40 for running...

I am trying to figure out how to change the transmission in my 97 FZJ80 and get more gears. One of the biggest hurdles is keeping the CEL off, (I live in an emissions tested area). Over the years on Mud, every time I read about someone thinking of a manual swap, it was shot down because of ecm...

Guys, my transmission went out last night (or so the Toyota dealership is telling me) and I would love to get your input. I have had my 2001 LC for roughly 1.5 years and started baselining it when I got it (previously rebuilt a 1997 LC). It currently has 315k on the clock and I bought it...

Hello...Have a 1993 FJ80 in very good shape at 225K miles...but just informed it needs a new transmission. Would be interested in thoughts about: rebuilt vs used and sources for either, reliable shops for this work and possibly restoration in CT/NY/NJ area, estimated costs, any other war...

I have a 1967 FJ40 with three speed column shift transmission. I want to switch over to 4 speed floor shift. Will a 4 speed bolt in place of 3 speed retaining current bell housing and transfer case? If so, what year 4 speed transmission should I be looking for?

I am looking to improve my rig by upgrading my stock 3-speed tranny. I have looked at the 5-speed option, but it gets very expensive with all that is needed. Have read a lot that the 4-speed makes the FJ40 a nicer daily driver. Besides getting the H41 4-speed transmission and bell house, what...

Tupelo, MS and Laurel, MS area. I bought this transmission to swap my 89' Pickup automatic out with. Never got around to it and now the new owner wants to keep the automatic. I'm selling the transmission (with transfer case still attached), brand new clutch kit (Aisin), and brand new master and...

So after hashing things out at the DMV I can finally move forward with my build. I have a 1987 FJ60 with a tired 2f engine that needs replacing. I have been slowly acquiring the parts I plan on stuffing underneath the hood and have the usual head scratching moments that come with a project of...

I recently got a pretty decent FJ80 from Austin Tx and drove it about 3 hours home. On the way home we noticed the gearbox hangs and has some scary-hard shifts in it. It has a little over 200k and ive done some well needed maintenance (spark, smogg bypass, fluids, filters, wheels, replace OEM...

I have a 1977 K10 with an SM 465, and I was thinking, I also have a 1978 G78 with a Spicer CM 5052 five speed. That five speed would be nicer. What kind of roadblocks would I run into doing a swap?
