the only difference to watch out for is between the petrol and diesel gearboxes, the diesel boxes have a long fine spline input shaft and the petrol have a short coarse spline input shaft... dont get the wrong one!
If you have a later 40 series your gearbox will have a crossmember and mount as opossed to the earlier ones that hung straight off the bell housing without any mounts.

I`ve just replaced the clutch in my FJ40 and I can let you the gear box weights a sh*tload. It took about 1hr to get out
and 3 days to get back in
Helpd to have the right tools for the job of course. Good Luck
