yeah I'm finding that
just been chatting to mike @ 4x4 parts and repairs .. he has a adapted a cruiser transfer to one .. in fact its sitting there ... unfortunately for love nor money the fellow wants to keep it .. so I'm going to buy a adapter plate off him and make the gears up myself to adapt the internals so i can just bung any cruiser transfer onto a lexus auto .. or so the plan is till ... the next plan comes along
im real keen on a pto output as well a aligned outputs

any other sugestions ?

[wjw]

Thats about it, I know a few people who might be interested in an adapter though. Any idea on the $$$'s?

[vvega]

not yet but well work out a price .. it wont be that much .. fairly simple to make

why not just get one off a 2.4? they seem to be cheaper

[vvega]

2.4 ?
the prado box is basically a lancrusier transfer on a surf auto
is the 2.4 comparable .... keen on a pto

[turoa]

yep they are the same except for the bellhousing (which im guessing your putting a 1uz one on anyway). Ive got one in my rover and just had to change the input shaft, oil pump and bellhousing (just used the bits off a 1uz auto).

I dont think any of the cruisers of that era came with the PTO gear in the transfer. They have a spacer instead and the plate is still there. So all you do to run a pto is put a pto gear in from an earlier transfer.

Flag the lexus auto idea.

Run a mk4 TT supra box- its identical but has one extra set of clutches/bands or something (you probably already know this). Would be wise for your beast.

If you want- The guy who bought my supra has had a box for sale after he did the conversion. I could ask him if its still around? I dont think he wants much.

+ it'd be awesome getting part of my old car back in the family

The only difference with the Supra autos is they have more clutch packs, doesn't cost much to get those put into a different auto. It's cheaper to keep buy a2jz-ge auto, take the clutches out and put them in a prado auto, than to buy a TT auto. The boy racers can't get rid of the 2jz-ge autos.. I've seen them go on trademe for $30.

The surf autos off the v6' don't have a split transfer, ie they are one oil gallery. They also have a different shift system.

The difference between a 2.4 and 3l auto is the speed sensor, thats about it as far as I can tell.
