BELLHOUSINGS & ADAPTER PLATE CONSIDERATIONS:
When using one of our full bellhousings, we recommend that you use an 11” flywheel and clutch assembly. A Centerforce clutch
and our large diameter release bearing are recommended in order to achieve proper disengagement with the Toyota Land Cruiser
slave cylinder. The full bellhousing kits come complete with a pilot bushing and stock GM clutch release arm. Both the GM and
Dodge assembly kits utilize a full conversion bellhousing. The Centerforce clutch components for these bellhousings are as
follows:
P/N CF165473S - Low profile Centerforce pressure plate with modified weights
P/N 383735 - 11” Clutch disc with 1-1/8” 10 spline
The adapter plates are designed to fit a standard Ford or Chevy bellhousing. The adapter plate provides a mounting surface
identical to a Ford or Chevy transmission. These adapter plates are designed around the Dodge 4WD transmissions with the
1-1/8” 10 spline input shaft. The Dodge transmissions have a 1” longer input shaft that compensates for the 1” long adapter plate.
These kits come complete with a pilot bushing and necessary hardware.
Chevy Adapter Plate:
When using an adapter plate to convert to a Chevy block, P/N 712550 should be used. This kit would require the same clutch
components that are listed above. The front Dodge bearing retainer will require modifications. The GM bellhousing would need
the 5.125” alignment index. The slave cylinder bracket required is
P/N 716287 . We recommend using our full bellhousing kit
rather then the adapter plates in these vehicles.
Ford Adapter Plate:
When using an adapter plate to convert to a Ford block, P/N 712551 should be used. This kit would require the clutch components
that are listed in the Ford Adapter Plate section of this manual. The Ford bellhousing would need the 4.848” alignment index. We
do not offer any bracketry to assist you in the mounting of the slave cylinder.
RETAINING THE STOCK 6 CYLINDER: RETAINING THE STOCK 6 CYLINDER: RETAINING THE STOCK 6 CYLINDER: RETAINING THE STOCK 6 CYLINDER: RETAINING THE STOCK 6 CYLINDER:
We offer the adapter components for the NV4500 to the stock Land Cruiser 6 cylinder engines. These parts ONLY work with the
Dodge Heavy-Duty 4WD NV4500 with the 1-1/4” 10 spline input shaft. NO EXCEPTIONS. These kits require the use
of a stock Toyota Land Cruiser 4 speed bellhousing. The adapter plate are not compatible with a 3 speed bellhousing.
The overall assembly length is 26.125” . When using this new transmission with the original Toyota 6 cylinder, you will normally
have driveline modifications of approximately 5". This will position the transfer case further back, requiring removal of the original
tubular crossmember. A new crossmember will be needed to support the transfer case.
NOTE: On 1999 & newer Dodge transmissions, the handle assembly was changed. Our kit packages are designed for the newest
transmission shifter configuration. If you have obtained a 1998 or earlier transmission, you will need to substitute P/N 716050D1
with P/N 716050D .
Parts required for replacing the Land Cruiser FJ40 3 speed (10 spline)
Our adapter plate will only work with the stock Toyota Land Cruiser 4 speed bellhousing. The bearing retainer
snout must be turned down to a 1.5” diameter. When replacing a 3 speed transmission, you will need to use the Land Cruiser
4 speed bearing collar to fit the new Land Cruiser bearing supplied in the clucth kit.
