Hi all, i just imported my 1991 70 series from Venezuela, i went and bought it over there and did some kind of restoration, but now that i have it here in the US i found that the transmission has some leaks by the upper plug, looks like was already welded, also on the transfer on the upper plug has a crack on the case. i live in Midland TX and i am looking for options on getting those replaced or repaired. Some people is suggesting JB WELD to patch it. any thoughts or suggestions ? also i don't even know what model of transmission is here are some pictures so maybe somebody can help me identifying it. the engine is a 1FZ-FE.

thanks

What does your data plate say? When is the build date of your 1991? I don't believe the 1FZ-FE was around in 1991.

You probably have an H55 or H15x (probably a 150 or 151) behind there right now.

My 1995 with a 1FZ-F carb engine has an H150 behind it from Oman.

1FZ was indroduced in 1/1992.

No H55F behind 1FZ in factory form.
 
Looks like an H151F to me based on the ribbing. That transfer fill (?) plug looks to have been over torqued and is cracked, so that's not good. Maybe that's why the transmission drain plug was welded, someone overtorqued that too? Unfortunate...
 
To fix the front part of case correctly it has to come off. At that point you could buy a new case front and glue on faster than messing with it.

If you finances are good you could also get a H152 and install bypassing all internal issues with a used 3rd world transmission.

engine swap, that model came with a 3F engine from factory. nut sure if they changed the transmission also when they swap the engine.

the data plate on the engine bay ? or does the transmission should have one ?

Engine bay. I was under the impression import restrictions require the original engine for importation. Was this new engine put in while in the states?
 
A lot of thread drift in this tech discussion. Car is in US now, so importation issues are for another thread. It is clearly a H15x transmission as ID by case and t case.

TIG welding the transfer case plug is best solution. Transfer rear case back is 36104-60010 and $204 plus freight.
The worm hole of rebuilding the transfer case is a deep money pit. I did it once, never again.
36120-60351 is a hdj79 part time case, $1,327.08 plus $700 freight from Japan.

Transmission front case is 33111-60160 is factory and obsolete. The hdj is -60260, and above $340 plus freight from overseas. There may be other numbers that can be used.

as covered in another thread, the 33030-60C51 vdj H152 is a US part for now and with some overseas giblets can be converted to hdt/fz profile for about $3,000.
 
Hello,

The plugs and the plate look like they have seen better days.

JB Weld will hold for a while. It is better to make a more permanent repair.

If your truck is a 1991 FJ70, it had a 3F engine and an H55F transmission. I am not sure your transmission is an H151.

It is possible to replace the transmission with either an H150 or an H152. The latter may require additional work to fit your engine. The former is in use with 1GR-powered 70 Series. I would get the whole assembly, namely an H150.

If the 1FZ-FE conversion was made in the US, it is worth checking the ECU. 1FZ-FE ECUs are transmission- and model-specific. Make sure it is for a manual transmission 70 Series.

Last but not least, your clutch slave cylinder looks like it needs replacement. The rubber boot is missing.

Following with this problem i have, the transfer case gave up, are there any USA alternatives to swap the transmission and transfer that works with the 1FZ-FE ?

Thanks

Georg @orangefj45 may be able to help you. They rebuilt my H150F which came behind my '94 1FZ-F.
 
Update, i got the transmission rebuild by our well known Georg, and i got the transfer from JAPAN. the transmission outer shaft does not match with the transfer, any idea what should i do next ot how to fix it ?

The early transmissions had a 60120 output (main) shaft. The later have 60140 shaft.

So in 1999 some transfer cases moved to an all in one (EXCEPT the Australian HDJ78/79). The 1999 FZJ and later VDJ's etc use this system. This input system mates to the 60140 transmission (main) shaft the same one used by the Aus HDJ79 transmission.

The only difference between the 60351 tcase and your old one could be the lack of pto but should not be an issue.

this is from 1990 HDJ80 manual page showing both shafts can mate to the early 60120 transmission (main) shaft.

I am at loss why it will not dock.
 
Hi Friends, finally the mechanic was able to put the transmission and transfer together, but now i need help finding these parts i can't find it on partsoug or amayama. i think is like a sensor for the transfer case
