One epic 12ht converted Toyota FJ45 pickup!
A good friend of ours in Alabama inspired me to convert Lucille (my FJ45) over to a 12HT. This rig has had pretty much everything done to it, no expense spared.
In this video we do a full walk around, and get a history lesson on how his truck came to be ...... enjoy!

Wow, what a beauty! Cheers from Brazil.
You guys still active? I need cruiser friends in Nashville.
Ohhh nice, any diesel with a straight pipe on a 6 cylinder wont be loud unlike a 4 cylinder.
I love those “helping hands”! Was that an Amazon find as well?
It's great to watch the process .Your buddy looks like the guy from the CZcams channel, TwoWheelObsession. 🤔 Takecare!
Just found your channel. I just got my first LC! '84, 5 spd, BJ42. I'm planning on putting on a turbo, as soon as I'm sure the endine is in good enough shape. I don't have a maunel for specs. Compression is 1. 425 2. 410 3. 400 4. 430. What do you think those psi values indicate for the engine?
You guys still active? I live in nash & got a 60 series
pretty sure Toyota use the denso from factory
just came across thisthis video love what you did with the rear end with the tire mount and the gas can mount can you give me information on those products and also the front bumper you have on this 60
Can you this Turbo on a stock internals of 3bEngine?
I like your car bit do you know by chance what the bumber is
Just starting my FJ45 now and your videos are like going to rebuilding school ! Love it
thats what i wanna do, what i'm gunna do
Did you guys have to move the motor mounts and transmission mounts on the frame? Also, for the engine side mounts did you guys just use oem fj40 mounts? Great stuff!
Thanks mate!
Just get a longer parking brake. Easier option vs changing a major component. I'd definitely try to keep that center console in.. That is one of the few complaints I have with the landcruiser
Wow…what a ride! 🎉
Nice Job man, I have a BJ40 1976. Looking to do something similar at some point.
Looks really good 👍
How much better was the power with just the exhaust?
Did you have to get that engineered? I had to take my crack to a ticketed welder/ repairer as i was told it would not pass the blue slip- which is the slip we need in Australia to get a vehicle registered.
Wow thats a wicked rig
Hi! I would like to find out which engen is more powerful between a 4.0 v6 landcruiser and 2f land cruser?
I am searching for a 5-speed h55 for my 69 40 with a 2 F any help would be great.
Yep, it feels bad at the time when we realise we made a mistake. But you are not a dummy. The man who made no mistakes, made nothing. But you are making something, something good, an old school fj40, 😃👍
How did the LED lights work out for you? I just installed the Kioto H4 headlights and am not impressed with the illumination.
the swap is just a plug and play ? no modification for the gear lever ?
I would hope I never run into this issue but if I did, you have given me the capacity to finish the job with excellent results… great video as always.
to add 60 s transmission on my fj40 i used the 55h transmission holder plate and the 60series housing ❤

Thank you for posting this! Going to be a great help with mine!

I love you truck great job
Un 3B muy similar al 2H motor ??
$3.05...not cheap. 😂
Why do they always put the steering wheel on the wrong side..
Very excellent work, thank you for this post, but I need the electrical diagram, please..
I have some beautiful doors you can have, they are the older ones, but you are welcome to them, just have to pay shipping.
Good job dude lovely from Tanzania 🇹🇿
Yes, a very very beautiful FJ or now BJ 45...and the engine runs like a Swiss watch!!! My HJ61 with the 12HT has 500.000 km and still starts up and runs like (almost) new. Never never never ever had an issue... Again nice build! Cheers, H.
Hello fellow Weekend-Warriors, nice video!!! Perhaps a quick question: What kind of setup do you use for "sand" blasting your stuff please? Many thanks from a fellow Toyota and especially BJ40 love 🙂 Cheers, H
Is a top coat of actual paint needed over SPI? If not, how does it look after 3 years?
