5.3 2wd 80

It's funny, someone in one of those threads once mentioned or somewhere.... Every rig with a transplanted engine gets sold shortly after the job is done... Does anyone know someone who did the swap themselves and kept the rig?

That is very true.

It seems like they get so pissed off after the swap they can't bare to look at the truck anymore.

This may apply to 80's but there are tons of 40's out there folks have kept for years.

True dat for the 40s. Maybe 55s and 60/62s as well. 80s are a different story seems.

The best way to handle a V8 swap in an FZJ-80 is to let someone else do it.

this is all trues... I had no idear what it was. the natives didn't talk... they clicked... "toc toc toc tic clic click" almost like it was a two-button mouse in a quiet office.... that's how the natives sounded... no one knew what iinternets was... but we, explorers, knew we could find nekkid womin on it... that's really all it took... it esploded from there.

Prolly not that bad of a deal - I'll bet a dealership would DEAL on a truck with that mileage (however, be advised that, [in MS anyway] even though it's older than 10 years old, if it's purchased from a dealership - and not an individual - you'll pay 5% sales tax on it!)

If you've not seen it yet - for any of you who are not merely 80's "dreaming" - there's a week-old link in the 80's section where you can download a Factory Service Manual in .pdf format. It's here:

https://forum.ih8mud.com/80-series-...-land-cruiser-factory-service-manual-pdf.html

The link on the (current) last page is the only one I found that would work.

Sure is nice to have it in that format so you can print out individual pages and still keep your factory manual all nice 'n purdy.........
