Could be an interesting conversion....

There seems to be a few bits not wired up but if it's as simple as suggested, may make a good transplant.

jeep should have used yota lumps to start with

Has the potential to be very good.

More than a few TJ's have had Cummins 4bt and 6bt swaps.

Not over here though.

IIRC, the bloke that bought a lot of my SJ bits back in the day had also dropped a Cummins into his Chief. Would make an excellent upgrade for Freddie as i want to use it as a tow rig for the YJ.

Looks like a pretty sensible conversion to me

Go on then

you have talked me into it

Jeepjedi · « **Reply #9 on:** October 20, 2013, 10:35:41 PM »

Bloody timing, I would have snapped that up

Looking good - that could be a lot of fun!

bgbazz · « **Reply #11 on:** October 21, 2013, 04:44:09 PM »

I'm a bit surprised that you guys haven't used these lumps before..uber reliable with the emissions crap blocked off or bypassed.

The 2.8td Isuzu lump was very popular with the landy boys

Very interested in gearbox/bellhouse conversion

Hi everyone I thought I'd say hello.
This is actually my brothers TJ & I did the gearbox work for him it's a great conversion.
I also have the same lump in my YJ but mated to aw4 tranny from an XJ, a lot more work but well worth it.

Very interested in the AW4 conversion

The Toyota hilux surf 3.0 td uses the aisin warner a343 transmission which is basically the same as the Jeep aw4.

dtooth · « **Reply #21 on:** October 21, 2013, 08:09:44 PM »

Will need details on the manual conversion

DIESELYJ · « **Reply #22 on:** October 21, 2013, 08:18:25 PM »

For the manual you need the engine & gearbox from a Toyota 4Runner 3.0 td this is the same box as the ax15 found in most 4.0 wranglers.
You need to strip down both gearboxes swap the input shaft & bellhousing & that's about it.
The uk 4Runners also use a mechanical injector pump but the surfs are all fly by wire pumps which is where the auto gets a lot more complicated.
