Have a look at the clutch 11 7/8 inches bout 301mm that's just the clutch disk wow!there you go
I know that the later aluminum 3B Bellhousing that came standard in the BJ7X's was a bit larger that the earlier cast iron ones in the 4X's series.
but even that one only came with a 275mm flywheel. HZ and 13B-t had this FlyWheel, the Turbo HD-T's got a 300mm Flywheel and I can get some measurements from that Bellhousing but it still might not unite your Engine/Tranny necessity.

I can also let you know what the total O.D. measurement is for a 300mm FlyWheel
I'm almost there Thanks for the link superdupercruizerThis might answer some of your questions:
Will a 5 bearing 3B mate up with my 83 stock bell housing on BJ42
That would be really helpful. Thanks any pictures would also be appreciated. I ran across a 1993 series 80 landcruiser for $1100 usd parts vehicle blown gas engine. Well I think the axles are worth more than that. I'm using the front axle cross members maybe drive shafts. I'm pretty sure I'll have most of the suspension parts I need for the front end. Of course I will rebuild before installing in my build. I'm Also thinking the motor mounts can be cutter out and welded to fit also maybe transmission mounts I'm just going to cut and weld anything I can use out of that framethere you go

So your saying here that I can get the transmission that was originally mated to my engine and add the mega cruisers transfer case to create a 4x4 if that's the case I can get that transmission very easily. See here's a picture of my engine before I bought it See they removed the six speed coaster 2wd transmission at my request to swap for the h55f that came from a 12ht.there may be other configurations that you can apply with some fabricating, but if your not looking to "recreate the wheel", Toyota's Mega Cruiser had a 15B-T with a transfer case that may be compatible with a Coaster 5 or 6 speed transmission. The Mega Cruiser came with Toyota's A443F, But so did some of Toyota's Coasters, but with 2 wheel drive configurations only. I thinks there has been mention of expedition built Coasters that have used the Mega Cruiser's Transfer Case to create a 4X4.
Of course none of these vehicles nor their drive-trains ever come stateside which will be your biggest challenge
pretty sure that Aus is a 12V market as far as 15B-T electrical parts go
Yeah. Your right. That's out the picture. No. I didn't get a flex plate. I think they also call it (engine plate) right?The Megacruiser transfer case sounds like a cool pathway; however, I'm going to sound like a Debbie-downer when I ask the following questions. What's the likelihood of finding a source for the Megacruiser transfer case? Is it unobtainium? you might want to lookup the threads related to the Megacruiser and consult with mudders having first hand experience with that drivetrain and determine possible suppliers for the needed parts.
Did you get a flex plate with the 3B bell housing you have? The h55 & split case are pretty common parts when comparing these to the alternative mentioned.
Would you sell any of this?Here is a 275mm, 21 spline Disc for a 14B. I also have the Pressure Plate. If you were to locate an later, "8" bolt 13B-T Flywheel from a 7X series, I'd be willing to bet it would bolt right up to your Crank.
I'm suggesting this route because I don't think the 300mm flywheel with Preassure Plate with fit in your Bellhousing.
Between your Bellhousing and the parts I've listed, an H55 should bolt right up.

Hey thanks for the comments. Actually this Tacoma body is sitting on a 93 1 ton pickup chassisThis is awesome. That 15bt is going to scoot the light tacoma chassis along the road with ease.
yes, For Sale: - 13B-T Clitch Disc and Pressure PlateWould you sell any of this?
Yes interested. But. You know which input shaft. I know you said 21 spline but. The lengthyes, For Sale: - 13B-T Clitch Disc and Pressure Plate
I'll throw in the End Plate at no cost if you are interested
We'll see my h55 was mates to a 12ht it has a 10 spline input shaftI'm not sure I follow you? You have an Aluminum H55-13B-T BellHousing. The Pressure Plate/Disc combo I have is factory designed/sold to work together. The H55 transmission input shaft and that Aluminum Bellhousing are made for each other
It may be tough to source a B-Series H55 with a 21 spline input, but an F/H H55 could still be had new and so could a 21 Spline input shaft. The job is a 1 banana on a brand new transmission. 1hr job
We'll see my h55 was mates to a 12ht it has a 10 spline input shaft
So do you know which land cruiser came with that h55 21 spline input shaft?We'll see my h55 was mates to a 12ht it has a 10 spline input shaft
I will post a picturewe need a clear image of your h55 bearing retainer around the input shaft.
If you have an h55 w ears you need later model stuff
like this (this stuff has been sold)
For Sale: - H55 Input Shaft and Front Bearing Retainer - Sold
If you do not have ears, your gearbox is early and the parts all must come used as they are long discontinued.
I will post a picture
