3B REBUILD BJ70 JDM
Well, since crap hit the fan, figure it is time to do this correctly.
I was planning on a head rebuild only but when I pulled head and cleaned up pistons, all 4 were cracked unfortunately.
So off to the races we go.
This thread will document the head and block rebuild. IP has already been rebuilt and will not be addressed here.
Injectors are also rebuilt and will not be addressed here. They will just be bolted on once the build is complete.
Vehicle specifics:
1985 BJ70-MR model. BJ70-0004000 frame number (10/1985 build).
JDM vehicle. Rotary injection pump. 215K KMs. I bought it with about 47K KMs and I have hammered on it in the 5 years I have owned it.
This first picture was taken on my ride home to Atlanta from Springfield, MO. 2015
Flopped it in Death Valley heading out of North Pass.... 2017
Southern Utah.... 2016
The Rincon....
Hole-in-the-Rock Trail in Southern Utah.
So, it has seen a lot of action in the past 5 years.
I am hoping this thread will be useful for people as reference for parts as well as mechanical data. Hopefully everything will make sense.
Furthur....
Best.
