It hasn't been that long, only a year or so sitting where I left it. As a background, my dad bought this 2003 LC100 V8 in 2011 from a company owner that never went offroad with her, neither did me or my dad till recently. This car has been serviced at the local Toyota dealer but the repair bills...
My 3B swapped Fj60 has a PTO winch, and I am am planning a V8 swap in the next year or so. Has anyone managed to snake the PTO shaft past a V8 in a 60? I can't see how it will all fit, but I thought I would see if anyone knows of it being done.
So I’ve just picked up a 2013 bare bones 200 DXL from Oman with a VDJ and manual gearbox.
The door sticker says H150 box, so that’s straight forward, but given it has a terribly high 5th ratio, same as my 70 series VDJ, I want to know whether I can swap in a brand new H152 box easily? Are they...

Looking for a swapped 60, preferably 350 or cummins, but open to other options.
Must run smooth and be mechanically sound with a properly done swap. Minimal/no rust preferred!
I have a 60 with a GM V8 conversion and 4 speed. Currently a small block. i’m going to be converting this to an LS automatic, so the 4 speed, clutch, bell housing and conversion plate is available for sale. Still in the truck, but will come out when sold. I’m still driving it.
Let me know...
