as the title says, looking for a 5 speed tranny cover for my 1980 FJ40

If you have a five speed with a 40 series top cover your looking for a inspection from from a 83 (10/82) 40 series. Most likely a BJ42 since they seem to the model most.likely to have a five speed. High percentage of BJ46 did as well but good luck finding one being parted out. Many of the 10/82+ 40 series had a raised inspection cover and the transfer case lever is a little forward of the five speed. If you have a five speed with a 60 series top cover probably just as easy starting with a late 60 series inspection cover. Either way neither will have the same footprint as your 80 FJ40. I posted pictures of the different inspect covers in a thread not too long ago.

Rick, are you looking for the sheet metal cover or the actual top of the trans?

Are you looking for the top piece of the transmission or the inspection cover that bolts to the hump on the tub?

If you are looking for a 5 speed transmission hump cover, I have one from a late BJ42.

Curious your price and how many messages you get about this?

I'm looking for the sheet metal cover that bolts to the floor.

Thanks

but if you have a top plate kicking around I'd talk about that as well.

For the record the later five speed transmission hump inspection plate has a different footprint and will not bolt to your 1980 FJ40. Also if your transmisions top cover is not from a 40 series the holes for the shifter will not line up. Better using a late 60 series inspection cover. Those hole with like up shifter levers from a 60 series.

Been a few threads lately covering the inspection cover and the crossmember to mount the transmission.

All good info, Living in the Past - thanks. I will post an image of this inspection cover in this thread tomorrow. It looks to be the same design as the fibreglass ones offered by city racer on his site. Fairly certain this is from a late BJ42 as it was sourced from a heap of parts relating to a 42.

I see that one of these 5 speed inspection covers sold recently in the classifieds by 447xpro

Landtank, I will respond to your pm.

This below would be a viable/cheaper option too possible.
