These are not yet pulled, but will be in late March / April and thought I might test the waters to see if there is any interest in them.
The engine is a 1FZ-FE out of a LX450 swapped into a 97 Land Cruiser about 16 years ago. Mileage on the engine is at least 180k, but likely much more. Of its variety of issues, it most certainly has a broken rod and next to zero compression. A true core that would need a complete overhaul, but maybe the accessories still have some value. I'll need to scavenge from the wiring harness, so that won't be included.
I believe, but really not certain, that the transmission is original to the truck (so 300k miles). I only drove it about 80 miles from POs house to my own (rod broke at about 77 miles into the trip). I will need to keep the transfer case and adapter/extension housing for my torfab conversion kit. Here is a video of how it sounds: .
I'm sure I am missing some details about things I'll need to keep in a swap, so if there's any doubt about some specific component, let's chat and I may not be sure until I've got the new engine + trans hooked up.
I am not sure if these have any value to anyone within a reasonable distance, but please let me know. Will entertain any reasonable offer, which may just be a case of beer and willingness to take these off my hands.
