LAND CRUISER AUTOMATICS (A44OF & A44OL):<br />
These transmissions were found in both the FJ60, 62, 80 & 100 series <strong>Land</strong> <strong>Cruiser</strong>s. They were found coupled to either a 3F or<br />
Diesel engine. Mark’s 4WD offers kits to fit either an early or late model Chevy V8 directly to these transmissions.<br />
The <strong>Land</strong> <strong>Cruiser</strong> automatic transmission is quite capable of handling the torque of most V8 engines. The adapter housing for the<br />
automatic is similar to that of the 4 speed housing. The new adapter housing will space the engine away from the firewall, eliminating<br />
any need to modify the firewall or reposition the original automatic transmission. The only area that we are not familiar with is the<br />
computer control requirements of these automatics when coupling to a Chevy block. The early automatic found in the FJ60 were<br />
non-computer controlled transmissions. The FJ62 may or may not be computer controlled, and the<br />
FJ80 had a stand along computer control system. The two input readings that the FJ80<br />
transmission computer requires are the throttle position sensor reading and the tachometer<br />
output reading. We offer an interface tachometer kit which is listed on Page 12.<br />
This kit uses a GM standard 168 tooth flywheel, as well as a standard GM starter motor. A GM<br />
flexplate (used for most GM automatics) is not sufficient for this conversion. The kit comes<br />
with a specially machined crank adapter that bolts to the rear of the GM flywheel. This crank<br />
adapter changes the rear crank shaft bolt pattern from the GM configuration to a standard <strong>Land</strong><br />
<strong>Cruiser</strong> pattern. This allows the custom flexplate to be bolted to the rear of the Chevy engine<br />
and uses the original Toyota torque converter. NOTE: When ordering one of these kits, be<br />
sure to specify the year of the block since there are two Chevy crank patterns (depending on the year<br />
of the block). The FJ80 & 100 series also requires a tachometer interface kit, P/N 716242.<br />

adapters, and necessary hardware.<br />
LAND CRUISER AUTOMATICS (A442F):<br />
These transmissions were found in both the FJ80 and the 100 series <strong>Land</strong> <strong>Cruiser</strong>s. They were coupled to a 4.5L 6 cylinder. At<br />
this time there are no bellhousing adapters offered for this automatic. We offer a few transfer case adapters to couple the GM<br />
automatics to the transfer case found in these vehicles.<br />
