[cruiserka]

this guy i know of has a cj or yjsomething and he runs a sbc with toyota trans and axles. He also has a winch that is actuated by the tranny. anyone ever seen this or know if it really is toyota and if it is, where to get em.

If you mean a PTO winch (power take off), it works off the transfer case. They were original equipment, and you get them whereever you can find them! (they are prized!).

 

[cruiserka]

so it came in a variety of years, fj40 to 62 ?

 

[IDave]

Yes. With some variations for the different models, mostly in the driveshaft.

if i found one , would my tranny have the hardware to run it? I have an auto3fe? how bout any other landcruiser, compatible? or does this winch come with a special tranny.

Most likely not.. (OK more like 99.9% not)...

The PTO gearbox bolts on to the sidecover of your transfer case, has either a single driveshaft flange pointing towards the front or one towards the front and one towards the rear. I'm not sure a the auto's ever had a PTO winch, more like the Toyota electric winch (rebadged Warn)...

The PTO gearboxes are t/c specific, there are several types for the split case and the same one for all the older one-piece 3&4 speed cases... the just use a different PTO gear in the t/c (10spl & 16 spl.)
