40 series t case in fj62? (1 Viewer)

If anyone would happen to know if a t case from a 1981 40 series would fit up to a stock fj62 tranny (1990) I'd sure appreciate some info

It might fit, but why?
The 85-later cases have the bigger idler shaft& bearings, stronger & quieter gears, 88-later have roller bearings instead of plain bushings in the output gears.

The 81 cases are missing some features of later cases, like the 5th gear oiler. They might not bolt to auto tranny, since it hadn't been invented yet.

I'm having some problems with my case and I'd rather just get a new one than try to find parts and break the bank. I can get this case for cheaper than most individual parts for mine.

Does your FJ62 have the vacuum transfer? If so, you need the neutral and low 4 switches tht are only in the FJ62 transfer case.
