If by split case you mean the case behind a FJ-60/62 then no, I don't believe that it will bolt up. I've not personally confirmed but my understanding is that while the A440 was used in both the 62 and 80 the output shaft is different.

I love the swap you have finished. The truck looks great. One question: I dont recall which vehicle has the A750 tranny?
Per wikipedia:
2003+ 4Runner (4x4)
2005-2009 Tacoma (V6 4x4)
2009 FJ Cruiser (Canada V6 4x4)
2003-2009 GX 470 (4x4)
2003-2007 LX 470 (4x4)
2005- Land Cruiser Prado 3.0 D4D (4x4) European version
2005 - Fortuner 4.0L
The 2003-? UZJ100 landcruiser has it as well, I would assume the same years as the LX470

Yes: 2003-2007 LC has the A750.
Okay first off I'm not sorry for digging up an old thread because I need some answers to some questions.
Second I drive a 94 FZJ80 and I've looked at swapping a diesel but due to emissions red-tape and discovering this thread I'm going to reconsider a 2UZ swap.
In the above quote it says to get a 343 transmission however the thread owner used an A750F so which one is it then? If the A750F does not need a custom crossmember then wouldn't that be the way to go? Any thoughts on if the crossmember for a A442 would suffice for the A750?
From what I read if a guy takes the Christo route then he'd need to buy a wrecked 100 (98 - 2002) and use the engine, tranny, ecu and wiring. If the engine was bad then pretty much any 2UZ would suffice.
If we take the route of the thread owner then It'd be buy a 2UZ, buy a A750F with Ecu and wiring.
Both require custom exaust.
Did I get it right?
Read thru my build thread. Answers lots of questions. Should be in my signature
Depends on how much you want to piece together or if you can get a complete wrecked truck.
I bought a 2UZFE, A343F, HF2A all from separate source, and it worked out great.
I have heard from a couple of sources that getting the A750F to work without the computer specific to that model would be hard. There are also thing to consider like the early 2UZFE used a throttle cable like the 80 while the later model was drive my wire so you would need the pedal assembly etc.
I am pretty sure that you will be making a custom crossmember no matter what transmission you use, and yes of course you will need a custom exhaust you're going from an inline 6 with manifolds on the passenger side to a V8 with manifolds on both sides.

If you get it from a late model LX470 it will have the HF2A fulltime case

I didn't say it was a good thing. Lol. I am not sure trying to swap a 750 is a good thing. Lol

Sorry wasn't trying to be obtuse I was just on my phone and couldn't type a long reply.
So if you want the 5 speed, I would try and find a 2003+ LX470 that has been wrecked and pull the entire drivetrain, all the computers, the pedal, the ignition, etc because you will need all of them to get it to run. From what I was told and it has been a few years is that the A750 will not work with the early motor and it's ECU. The later motors have a key immobilizer so you will need the key and ignition, so if you want to keep the same key as the rest of the doors etc you would have to ziptie it up under the dash and wire in your stock ignition. The pedal is drive by wire so you will need the stock pedal and I don't believe you will be able to run the 80 cruise control since it is simply a cable that connects to the throttle body.
So the reason I say I don't think it is a good idea. Is that there is a lot of problems to overcome just to get the 5 speed.
With the 4 speed you have more support, more people understand it, there are how to's on installing shift kits etc.
IMHO the advantage of the extra gear is very hard to justify over the added complexity of the swap.

I understand, and agree. The earlier engines seems to offer easier swaps. The later engines/combos offer some "improvements" in their original vehicle incarnation but those are what add complexity to them as swap candidates.
Picked up a 91 FJ80 last night with a broken motor. Turns out the crankshaft broke between #1 and #2.
I decided to drop in the 2UZFE VVTi v8 motor with stock auto transmission.
Here is my progress
I project 2 months to completion since my time out in the garage is limited
Day 1: - pull motor
Lets just say, the 3F motor is one of the harder engines to pull. I would hate to put this heavy hunk of iron back in. It would have made things a bit easier if Toyota would have made a two piece fan shroud! Took me about 3 1/2 hours to get the thing out of there, and by my standard, that was way too long. I did spend a bit of timing removing components I won't be needing anymore.
I have 95 lc can I use the original transfer case with a343f tranny + 04 2uz from tundra ? i'm looking for the easy swap can you please give me some advicePicked up a 91 FJ80 last night with a broken motor. Turns out the crankshaft broke between #1 and #2.
