Tom

Axels are Dana 60 and GM 14 bolt and the T case is a NP205, as stated on the first post.

The other is getting a clutch, tranny, dual cases sliders and front and rear bumpers.
NOOOOOOOOOOO please don't condem another Toyota to life with GM GARBAGE under the hood (IMO the single WORST mod you can make to a Toyota)... Better yet get another 4bt for it, just NO GM CRAP, the old 2f is a better motor then that 350... God how I detest all things GM.

Nice FJ62 though, but as I said, I'm strongly against your planned motor swap

Cheers

Yeah, more power, More torque, better gas mileage, lighter, readily available parts, etc. What was I thinking?


I guess you didn't know that the 1F-2F base is a direct copy of a GM straight six motor. Toyota literally reverse engineered it into a metric motor.

The 2F has a whopping 135HP from the factory and weighs 200lbs MORE than the TBI350 that is replacing it. The 350 is one of the most dependable motors on the planet. Love it or hate it, its a better motor IMO.

X2 Good call on the 350
Them FJs are heavy for a 135 horse 6er

This could quite possibly be the single coolest truck on the planet. Makes me wish my pockets were way deeper. Subscribed for sure.
