Oh, and that includes the t-case.
I would like this deal done this week if possible. I know it's a good price, I got a good deal on the whole package, and I'm not greedy, I just don't see putting it back into this particular BJ60 as being worthwhile.
It came out of the truck I have. The PO was a PlantDrive customer and ran this truck about 8 years on veg as his daily driver/work truck.
He took out the whole unit because it was leaking or something, and took it to a local transmission shop, who he had dismantle it for rebuilding. They scared him with a high cost to rebuild and gave him a list of a few parts they said it would need. He declined, and brought it home in boxes.
He quickly grabbed another 4-speed locally for a few hundred dollars, and put it in, to have the truck on the road ASAP. The 4-speed works fine, and will be ok for my purposes. Then he and his family were moving out of the country within a few weeks, and he contacted me about buying the truck, parts and all, and his price was fair. So I bought it for a winter truck and general yard/cleanup use. I don't intend to restore it.
I obtained a shop manual (original Toyota) and gave the parts list from the transmission shop to a retired mechanic friend, who had one of these trucks at one time, and he went through it and put it back together. He said he could not see anything that was that terribly wrong with it, so he didn't actually put any new parts into it, he just reassembled it and it's more or less ready to go, as far as I know, but it really shouldn't be considered "rebuilt" or quite ready to bolt in (that's why I put "rebuilt" into quotes and figured on having a discussion with an interested buyer, but it makes more sense to just state everything I know about it here, and be done with it.
It should be checked out again by someone who knows them, before installation, I would say.
So I have priced it accordingly, and I think it is quite a fair price for what the buyer would be getting, 5-speed, driveshafts, and t-case.
