Re: V8 Petrol landcruiser Timing belt

Re: 2uzfe in 80 series
you can buy the bolt up parts from an early 100 98-02 with the 4speed auto(a442f), im bolting a 1uz to an 80 4speed (a440) using the bellhousing ordered from toyota @ $460, torque conver is $1150. engine mounts and firewall are going to be the hardest bits if you would call that hard

if your using a late auto it might be eleccy control with means computers,

Re: 100 series Automatic boxes weak?
why would a smaller auto be stronger? the A440f and A442f (4 speed) were fitted in 80's and 100's till 02' and they are used in busses and trucks, the A343f is only better because it is a five speed, not stronger, both are good auto's but like all auto's abuse them and they will reward you with a hu...

Re: Toyota V8 Diesel Starter motor location
why not just use the wiring from the starter relay, that would be easy to find.
most toyota manuals wont give up a location that easy( i ve spent days looking on them for new car stuff )
