Update 5/13/24 - Due to demand, we have decided to stock these again. Back in stock!
This is for the 86-90 FJ60/FJ62. The difference between the earlier and later models is the bolt pattern that attach to the frame. These will not interchange so make sure you get the right one. The earlier years the 4 bolt pattern was a square. In 86-90 the bolt pattern is offset like a parallelogram. We have limited quantity of the earlier gearboxes
Is your steering loose? A rebuilt gearbox is what you may need. Avoid downtime with a fully rebuilt gearbox. We recommend getting a new one over a used one. Why? Almost all used boxes of this year will have over 200,000 miles on it, so you are just putting "a bandaid" it. Do it the right way and get a newly rebuilt gearbox. Each box goes goes through a thorough rebuilding processing which entails:
As of 12/1/2023, we have a new rebuilder. Each box goes goes through a thorough rebuilding processing which entails:
- Before anything is done, the 6x boxes are put on a machine and tested for pressure and flow. With the 6x boxes, once there pressure is subpar, there is nothing that can be done to restire this as there is no o-ring to replace like newer boxes. Other rebuilders may rebuild these but there won't be enough pressure in the lines. Rest assured that a box from us has the correct flow for your system. Note- Your core MUST pass this test to get your core refund.
- Washing it thoroughly
- Inspecting all components to ensure there are no worn parts
- Prep stage which includes buffing, polishing and sanding
- Fresh coat of paint
- Build and reassemble
- Put it on a hydraulic test bench for 1-3 hours to ensure no leaks and it works as it should
Due to being thoroughly tested, when you receive your newly rebuilt gearbox, it will have some places where the paint is rubbed off as well as fluid remnants.
A $500 refundable core charge will be added by selecting the checkbox. ONLY Toyota OEM FJ80/FZJ80 cores are accepted. We do not take other models in lieu of this (ie, FJ60s/FJ62s). You will get the full $500 back if your core is rebuildable (ie, no broken sector shafts, splines are straight etc) and the core is received within 30 days from the ship date, which is the day we ship your box out to you. Core refunds can take up to 30 days. Cores received after 30 days but before 60 days will receive up to $250 back. Cores received after 60 days will receive $100 back. Note, we really want the core, but people have not been sending them back or sending them back months later.
