Hi Guys!
I am looking for some advice on the following matter.
I currently own a 1996 HZJ75 that has been transplanted with a 1FZF engine. Overall condition is regular. Missing rear seat, and needs bodywork. Also rear axles and brakes been converted to disc, not a nice job as far as im concerned. Engine runs well
So, today, a friend told me about a 1985 BJ75, one owner and by the pics it seems in better overall condition. It has jumps seats, no sub tank, rear wiper, rear heater and a 3B engine I believe. No more specs from the pictures. Will go and check it out next week.
My questions are the following:
1. Do you guys think its in good condition by the pictures?
2. How hard would it be to swap engines between the two 75 mentioned? What else should I consider in an engine transplant? Harness? Transmission and transfer? Fuel tank? since one is diesel and the other one petrol?
Any input is highly appreciated.
Cheers and have a nice weekend!!
