lj78 Prado transfer replacement

Post by u13turbo »

Just wondering whether surf(or other) auto trans are the same? I know the transfers are different but they could be swapped?

Cheers

They all use a variant of the A340E Trans...
The general difference is the line pressure control.
Some use a cable attached to the throttle body...
Some use a solenoid controlled by the ECU.
This trans is also used in many other vehicles...
And can also have different number of clutch packs...
