Outer Limits 4x4 Board

Not a hilux, I have an 86 RJ70 Bundera, when I bought it 5th gear was gone so I had the box rebuilt. The G52 is a sweet little box, but in all honesty it is really more of a slop box than a gear box. When I get around to it I will eventually fit an R150 from a diesel bundera with an adapter for the ...

JR9162 Both RJ and LJ 70 Bundera's have landcruiser style split transfer case. Petrol Bundera transfer low ratio is 2.274:1 with G52 transmission Diesel Bundera transfer low ratio is 2.295:1 with R150 transmission If you swap a transfer from one to the other You will be required to change the spud ...

Droopypete,

Does the Bundy have a HiLux or Landcruiser style Tcase? I mean is the rear drive shaft centered in the vehicle, or offset to the right side like a FJ40?

Those with R151F gearboxes, is the Tcase gear or chain driven?

Hi Guys , well finnaly my engine is a complete mess , so i need to check if a 1KZT engine will bolt up straight where previously existed a 3L , ive a 1993 Lux with previous 22R Engine ( before 3L) so im not pretty sure but i should have a G52-5 or a R151... Someone with previous experiencies and ...

Anybody done this swap retaining the R151F gearbox?

Is there an OEM or aftermarket bellhousing available? Something to use besides the Marks G52/W56 to R151F adapter plate.

Thanks!

JR

The turbo 4Runners in the US have a 22R-TE and automatic gearbox. The turbo HiLux (SR5) in the US had a 22R-TE and R151F gearbox with 23 splined input shaft on a gear driven Tcase. Nothing wrong with the motors, just scarce. They have forged low compression pistons, and larger combustion chambers in ...

Ingthorsson,

I know the LJ70 and BJ70 (Bunderas) had coil sprung 8" ring and pinion HiLuz style axles. Does your R150F gearbox have a mid or offset rear output shaft on the Tcase?

I'm curious to learn more about the Bunderas. Would love to find one in LH drive.

A mate of mine has a Lux with a 22r. Can a 22re head and fuel injection system bolt straight onto his 22r block? If it can and anyone has the 22re bits can you PM me. Thanks Paul. Paul, Check out this forum http://board.marlincrawler.com/ - search under EFI or fuel injection conversions. Some of ...

Chucky,

I know nothing about the 22R-G but would like to know more. PM or e-mail me with more info!

JR

Well if you go v6, use the 3.4 liter 5VZ-FE not the 3.0 liter 3VZ-E. The 3.4 liter is a much better engine. However to make it work with your 160 mm (6.5") long input shaft on the R150F gearbox, you'll need to use the 3.0 liter engines bellhousing. All 3.4 liter v6 Toyota truck and 4Runners in the ...

Thanks. That makes more sense. From a conversion standpoint, in an IFS HiLux which is a better swap? The 3L/5L with aftermarket turbo, or a 1KZ-T? In either event the gearbox will be a R151F. I've heard the 1KZ is a much heavier engine, even with the alloy, head whereas the 3L/5L is all cast iron ...

Thanks for the info. Yes the 5L and 5L-E are stroked 3Ls.

Secondly, what's the better route to turbo a 3L or 5L? Aftermarket or use the
turbo 2L parts and possibly a different turbocharger than the CT20?

I get confused between the codes, 2L-T, 2L-TE, and 2L-T II

JR

Simplest thing is install a 1995 22RE from a Hilux or 4Runner. Since you have a LD drive vehice, the wiring harness from a US or Euro donor vehicle is possibly a bolt in swap. Dunno the difference in the wiring loom off the 4Runner and your TLC. Is it a RJ70? Does it have the R150F/R151F gearbox? If ...

Go to this forum and search for 3RZ. Lots of info on the conversion but u can't use a R series gearbox without the Marks Adapter (R gearbox to G/W bellhousing). Guys are using the W56 gearbox mated to a W58 bellhousing. The 2WD T100 is a popular engine source. http://board.marlincrawler.com/index ...

Dumbdunce,

What about the next quantum jump, 3L to 5L? Can the 3L and 5L be converted to the 2L roller rockers, and is such a conversion worth it? Yes, more mass but should allow for less friction/wear....

JR

Go to this forum and search under 3RZ-FE. The 2RZ-FE has the same block to bellhousing bolt pattern so you solve fitment issues in the same manner.

OK. So I don't think a R151F or R150F will bolt to that bellhousing.... Correct?

What gearbox does that v8 100 series land cruiser have in it?

R Rhino,

Was your Lux IFS or solid front axle?

Use the W58 bellhousing, flywheel, and clutch assembly found behind a 5M-GE in the Supras.

Alas, Castlemaine say they have no bellhousing to fit a R150F/R151F to a 2JZ-GE.

Another bloke sent me a pic of a Dellow bellhousing for a W58. I'd never seen the inner portion of one before, just the exterior. The casting was real rough and had many occlusions on the machined surface.

I can see why Castlemaine is preferred.

Skip,

That's cool. Did you have any problems with the Dellow bellhousing? I hear other guys (mainly a different forum) badmouth them. I know Ozrunner uses one and I've never heard him fault their product....

What did you do for motor mounts?

Well I know I can attach a W56 to a W58 bellhousing. I reckon to use a R151F I'd need a Dellow or Castlemaine bellhousing. I thought I'd read some of the turbo JZ engines used a R154 gearbox. Maybe it was the 1JZ-GTE.... Regardless, even if that were true and the bellhousing fits a 2JZ-GE block, the ...

Mike, doesn't the 2JZ-GE come with a W58? I'd presume the 2JZ-GTE would come with a R154... Will 5M-GE motor mounts fit a 2JZ-GE? What type sump does the 2JZ-GE come with, forward, mid, or rear? What kind of adapter is available to hook the R151F or R150F to the 7M-GE using the A340 automatic ...

Ozrunner did one with a 302 Ford v8 and Dellow bellhousing

To bolt the 7M-GE to your G52 use a 5M-GE or 7M-GE bellhousing (it bolts to a W58 2WD gearbox). Same bellhousing will fit the G54, and W56 gearboxes. No specialty aftermarket bellhousing is required, it's a stock Toyota OEM part. SupraSurf will have to answer your flywheel clutch issues regarding ...

5M-E's power is much the same as the 22R-E, albeit a little gain. However for a six cylinder the swap shouldn't require a body lift as the engine is SOHC.

I think it'd be better for bottom end torque and longevity in a Lux.

Did u see my PM?

Savage, SupraSurf is one of the converters I was referring to. Wondered what took him so long to post. Thanks for the clarification on the oil pan and pickup. As stated before I know nothin about the 4Y. I think SupraSurf has had extraordinary long life out of his G52. SupraSurf, have you heard of ...

That's why I keep seeing reference to 4Y all the time.... See you can teach an old dog new tricks, just gotta use the right bone. All I can tell you beyond this is search the internet (www.google.com), this site, and the forum (BBS) at www.marlincrawler.com using 5M-GE or 7M-GE as your key words ...
