1971 Toyota Land Cruiser FJ40. This is a truck built BY a Land Cruiser enthusiast FOR a Land
Cruiser enthusiast. As you read this description, you’ll note the details that make this the ultimate Land
Cruiser Junky’s truck!
This recently restored Land Cruiser started off as a 1971 US-SpecFJ40, but was converted to a BJ40 diesel during
the restoration. This is NOT a South American truck! The Land Cruiser went through a thorough frame-off,
nut-and-bolt, multi-year restoration and is ready for anything. It’s the perfect truck for taking to the
mountains, cruising along the beach, or just cruising to the local car show. The odometer reads 38471 miles
The truck received a Toyota LandCruiser 3B (approx. 150k km or 93k miles) from a Canadian spec Land Cruiser along
with an H55F 5-speed transmission, “split” transfer case, and 1981 BJ42rear axle with integrated parking brake.
The engine received all new gaskets and seals and was installed using quality BJ42 reproduction frame mounts with
new motor mounts. The transmission was installed using an OEM1981+ transmission crossmember. An original BJ42 Air
cleaner assembly was also used. The drivetrain looks like it came from the factory this way and doesn’t have any
goofy custom-made brackets like so many other conversions. If you’re a LandCruiser junky like I am, this is
probably the most highly desired 40 series drivetrain combination available. The transmission and transfer case
were rebuilt with all new Japanese (mostly Koyo)bearings, 3rd-5th synchros, seals, and gaskets. The front and rear
axles received all new wheel bearings with the front axle receiving a complete knuckle rebuild with Koyo bearings.
Has restored period-correct Dualmatic (Selctro-style) hubs. Stock Land Cruiser driveshafts were retubed, balanced,
and had new Japanese (Matsuba) U-joints installed by a local driveshaft shop. There is an OEM hand throttle
mounted under the dash to assist with cold starts or for use if a winch is installed.
This FJ40 received an OEM BJ42radiator shroud, an aftermarket BJ42 brass radiator from Australia, a new Aisin(OEM)
water pump, and new fan. This was all tied together with new Toyota hoses and belts.
The front brakes were converted to power disk using Wilwood 4-piston caliper kit, stainless hoses, and stock
Landcruiser disk brake master cylinder and brake booster. The rear brakes are stock 1981 self-adjusting, single
cylinder brakes with integrated parking brake. The brakes are a HUGE upgrade all-around with no wheel cylinders or
parking brake to manually adjust. The steering was converted to power steering using a Toyota mini-truck power
steering box and factory BJ42 power steering pump. Additionally, all tie rods were replaced with new Japanese (555
brand) units. The suspension upgrades consist of 2.5” lift springs and new Bilstein5100 series shocks. All new
greaseable spring pins and anti-inversion shackles were installed along with new polyurethane bushings. The truck
rides better than any other FJ40 I’ve been in.

Toyota asking NHTSA for waiver on 206K vehicles
Fri, 14 Mar 2014Toyota has filed a petition with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration asking for a waiver to avoid recalling about 206,271 2012-2014 Camry, Avalon, Corolla, Sienna, Tundra and Tacoma vehicles, some of its most popular models. The affected vehicles contain seat heaters that might not meet government flammability standards. Toyota says in the waiver that "the chance of fire or flame induced by a malfunctioning seat heater is essentially zero," according to The Detroit News. The automaker notes the part makes up less than one percent of the seat's weight.
Initial reports of the problem arose in late January when Toyota issued a stop-sale order for 2013 and 2014 model year versions of those vehicles. The automaker says that there have no been reports of fires or injuries in the affected cars, and the problem was discovered during testing by the South Korean government, according to The Detroit News.
We've reached out to Toyota for comment on this development and are awaiting a reply. We'll update this post if and when we hear back.
Toyota Camry Hybrid SE adds a dash of limited-edition sport
Tue, 04 Feb 2014For drivers who want to benefit from the increased efficiency of a hybrid sedan but who don't want to look like they'd rather be hugging trees, Toyota has just announced its 2014.5 Camry Hybrid SE Limited Edition.
The SE LTD combines the exterior bits and pieces that make the SE look sportier than other Camry models with the 2.5-liter, four-cylinder engine, electric motor and nickel metal hydride battery pack of the Camry Hybrid. That means the Hybrid SE offers up 200 combined system horsepower to the front wheels, and we'd expect it to be rated at the same 40 miles per gallon city and 38 highway of the Camry XLE Hybrid.
Only 5,000 units will be produced between February and June of 2014, with an asking price of $27,845, which is about $700 more expensive than the base Camry Hybrid LE or $2,620 less than the Hybrid XLE that Toyota says shares a similar level of equipment. Sounds like a fair shake to us. Scroll down below for the complete press release.
Toyota makes $100M investment to boost Indiana Highlander production
Mon, 25 Aug 2014Toyota has announced that it will be making a $100 million investment in its Princeton, IN factory in a bid to increase production of its popular Highlander CUV. The move will create 300 new jobs by 2016 and increase the total number of crossovers the plant can produce by 30,000.
Toyota currently builds the Highlander, alongside the fullsize Sequoia, at Toyota Indiana's West Plant. The additional capacity, though, will be sent to the East Plant, which is currently responsible for production of the recently refreshed Sienna minivan.
"The Highlander has been a great product for our plant," Toyota Indiana President Norm Bafunno said in a statement. "Establishing Highlander as the 'bridge vehicle,' as we call it, between the East and West plants increases our ability to meet customer needs for our outstanding products. This exciting news is a true testament to the capability of our hard-working and dedicated team members."
