3B 5 speed Compatibility

Post by kranked_dirt »

Does anyone know if a 5 speed and transfer that has been behind a 3B engine will bolt up to the back of a 2F?? I'm wondering if they might be different splines??

bolt pattern is identicle but spline is different and the input shaft is about 100mm longer on the BJ box compared to the FJ/HJ so unfortunately you can't get away with just changing the clutch plate to a fine spline. It's a full rebuild with the 6 cyl input shaft.

I'm looking for a 5sp for my Bj42 if you aren't keen to do the mod.
