Hey all first time on IH8MUD, I am nearing the end of my mechanical restoration of a 1985 FJ60. I got the old beast started yesterday for the first time and realized I was unable to shift into gear. I have replaced the original 4 speed with a H55F transmission, which in the process I replaced...
1993 1FZFE engine and transmission, 260K miles. Engine likely has a blown head gasket - haven't pulled the head to confirm, but that's the most likely issue - block test showed exhaust gas in the coolant. Before that, it ran great.
Engine has Photoman's alternator bracket and a 120A Sequoia...
Hey All,
I am getting ready to swap a transmission into my 98' LX 470, I unfortunately was dealt a blow with the strawberry milkshake of death ( radiator failing and pulling coolant into the transmission) when I installed my Amazon.com purchase Denso unit a few months back. I have not written...
Hey guys,
A brief intro as this is my first post;
I recently bought an ‘04 100 series after quite the extensive search. She’s still just a baby at 120,xxx miles and since purchasing her I’ve dumped thousands into baselining her and getting preventative maintenance under control - timing belt...
Looking for a working good condition A442F transmission. This must be the full hydraulic model from an HDJ81, not the electronic version found in N. American spec 80s.
Based in California.
Hi, since I bought my J80, the 3rd gear grinds... In the past it used to grind some times but now it grinds every time and now 4rd gear started to grind as well.
1st, 2nd & 5th are fine however I will replace all synchros. I am using 75w90 GL4+ oil on the trans right now, GL4+ means is a blend...
Hello,
I have a 2000 TLC with about 90k miles on it. As far as I am aware the fluid has never been replaced. Anyway, I know there are threads on this already but most of them are pretty dated and was curious if anyone has had experience with this more recently. I was driving up a road out of an...
I have a 1976 FJ40. There seemed to be no issues until one day I was backing out of the garage and at a very slow speed it just stopped as if the axle seized up. I could no longer move backwards. However, I could move forward a few feet, so I did, but it locked up a foot or so before I returned...
For the last month my 80 has been shifting a little slower, I didn't think much of it since the 80s aren't known for their fast shifting, but yesterday, I put my car in park and left the AC running while I was waiting for someone. About 10 minutes of keeping the car in park the RPMs started...
Just bought my first 40 series. Canadian diesel BJ42 1980 3b diesel with 4 spd.
The shippers were able to drive it on the truck well enough but when it arrived 3 days later, it can hardly pull itself.
Symptoms.
Transfer lever makes no difference regardless of position (previous owner said...
Hi. My 73 FJ40 hangs at about 2700 RPM to go freeway speeds, and my carburetor doesn't like it. And neither do I.
How do 4-speeds do on the freeway? About what RPM do you guys run at (if you have the original motor)?
If anyone has had both, how do they compare? Is first gear lower on the...
In the process of buttoning back up my late 80's H55 and associated split case. In addition to swapping input shafts (thanks to help from Georg at Valley Hybrids), I opted to throw in new synchros and seals.
I'm now hung up on what seems like excessive thrust/play of the counter shaft. I've...

If you want it shipped, you pay shipping.
3FE bottom end & A440F trans
Bores look good with crosshatching. I don't know mileage, but it came out of @TRAIL TAILOR 's FJ62 donor rig. Probably should have done a compression or leak-down test before pulling it apart, but...
So a couple weeks ago I started noticing that my transmission couldn't decide on the right gear to stay in... typically when feathering the throttle in the 1500-2000 RPM range. I figured overdrive was having an issue so I started just putting the transmission in 4th gear when surface street...
I have a 1997 A343F with HF2AV transfer case attached, pulled from a rolled FZJ80 Land Cruiser with 212,000 miles. Includes everything shown in the pictures. Looking for $350 plus shipping.
I am located in Northern California (Sacramento region).
I upgraded to the 5spd but you can get my old whiney 4 speed that probably needs a rebuild. Shifter included. About 200k miles on her, pulled working. Really loud in Top Gear™ and a little jammy getting into 2nd and reverse. Maybe they all are. Located in San Diego, CA she is $200 OBO plus...
SoCal
From a gas powered 1991. I drove it and it shifted well, no slippage, no lurching, no creeping at idle and no leaks. Torque converter included. $500 firm for the Trans and Torque converter and I will deliver it to your shipper; you set up and pay for the shipping.
Transfer Case quiet...
Hey Guys, I know there are lots of threads on replacing 62 transmissions...but I wanted to get more local feedback and advice from you all.
This summer my transmission overheated several times, and then a few weeks ago it starting having trouble shifting up in gears. The guys at LCNW...
Hello, I'm having some problems with my fj62 transmission lately. It revs up high at shift points, and sometimes takes a while to shift into the appropriate gear. I've heard people say that the dipstick in this trans should be hot enough to almost burn you when you check it, but mine never gets...
