Its in the gearbox section I dont know why they do that
Its called the DETECTOR ASSY, REVOLUTION 83180-60040
I used the Japanese models ,so it would be a 24v if that makes a difference

FWIW the detector doesn't care about the voltage, but there is a different part number for pre 84/11 BJ60 One can assume it has to do with a difference in the thickness on cast iron Bellhousing.
Number shows good on my US parts disc, $140 ret.
If you want one for a bunch less we have some used ones pulled out of JDM BJ7 alum bellhousings.

thanks for the info guys, i do appreciate it.

one more question along the same lines. in order to get the tach to work, do i need to swap in a bj60 tach or will the stock fj60 unit work?

any chance you could put up a photo of your bell-housing to show where the sensor goes?

i've got a cast-iron and aluminum without holes and i'll need to drill & tap in the near future.

i'll try to post a pic of what's in the 60 on monday, depending if i can get a good shot of it or not.

Don't have any cast bellhousings kicking about anymore to take a pic of. IIRC The Bellhousings should have a round flat spot cast into them on the right side. Roughly 3/4" diameter hole. Center of hole 7/8" in from the face of the Bellhousing that meets the backing plate.

You need to swap in a tach out of a BJ60.
HJ60 won't work, at least not one out of Japan or Canada as it will be 24v.

Would the BJ70 detector be the same as a BJ60 of the same voltage?

 

[70sguy]

Revolution detector assy 89180-60040 is same between BJ70 and 84/11 up BJ60 regardless of voltage.
Pre 84/11 BJ60 is a different part number 83180-60030 likely because of the cast iron Bellhousing, not voltage.

Sorry Georg, don't have a 12v BJ60 tach available at the moment.

Roodogs in australia has new aftermarket tach sensors on his website now, and he certainly has a 12V diesel tach too.
cheers,

Reviving this old thread just to point other people to the sensor dimensions info, I measured and shared them recently in this thread.
