This is just for manual transmissions yeah?

No, the input shaft is the same for the auto or manual. Most guys put it behind the auto to get like marlin crawler type gearing. What year is yours?

Anyone on mud have some RL experience with these? Looks interesting. Marketed as "offroad" use only. Does it have an adverse effect on highway speeds?

It doesn’t have any adverse effect on highway speeds. Marketed as “off-road” that’s for regulatory and compliance mainly for CA

It doesn’t have adverse affect on highway speeds. Some people attach an extra oil cooler (pump, radiator and some hosing) to make sure the oil doesn’t overheat. There is a guy on 80 series Land Cruiser on Facebook that installed it. Some 60 series threads on it too. High gear is still 1:1 so it wouldn’t affect your gearing in high gear.

Hey quick note, this only works with the earlier years 80 series with the A442 trans, not the a343.

 

[UnknownCompany]

Yeah. I have a 94 so I'm pretty sure it would work. I've been digging around a bit looking for folks that have some experience with it.
Does it involve another shifter?

Yes, I have the sifters in the kit

 

[UnknownCompany]

Yes, I have the sifters in the kit

So is the setup that you end up with 3 sticks for the transfer case?

That’s correct

 

[UnknownCompany]

That’s correct

Are you running this setup in an 80?
I'm so curious about the logistics. I did see the setup "Jailbrake" had stellar built install on his 4runner.

I am not running it. I bought it for a LS swap project but decided to go more simpler route.

I have mine for sale too

1994

 

[74bruiser]

1994

It is the correct input shaft.

 

[cartibee]

It is the correct input shaft.

I'm regearing to 4.88s next month, but these wouldn't get in the way of that right? This is just for low range/offroading?
