This beautiful piece of hardware was the final component that was my "excuse" for not being able to swap an XJ. Incredibly well done.
Thank you
I just completed this rear sump conversion for my 1984 CJ 7 -- Miles of clearance all around -- I was amazed with the quality of the kit - This video would have made things a bit easier however, the instructions are very detailed. Super happy with it!
Joe, re-watching the video, have engine upside down on the stand and tomorrow.....in goes the kit, video is super helpful...update..it went in fine once I found the parts, I ordered the kit some time ago but all good
Nice work great looking part. All your parts are very nice. In the middle of doing my install with all your parts.
Thank you for the kind words!
Great videos and your theory about the oil backing up to the turbo thru the drain tube is correct.I own 300d turbo and I tried with .my mechanic helpto modify the oil return line from turbo to get rid of the notorious oil leaks and changing the o rings and grommet every 2 years but that didn't work because of the tube and locking nut to secure the 10 NPT fittings to the case the oil was backing up to the freshly rebuild turbo and because these engines take about 8 quarts of oil the return line was submerged in oil so now we have to remove the oil pan and put everything back to factory specs . Just wanted to put this out there for you and your subs because that's what I havedealt with for couple of weeks trying to figure out what happened after rebuilding the turbo.
Fantastic design, you'll have to let us know what all this supports. Looks like a substantial amount of clearance, who knew throwing Toyota parts at your problems provides such a great solution
I tried dozens of pans. It's purely ironic this one worked best.
Hey man this stuff looks crazy, I've wanted to get the conversion kit for the xj for awhile. Does that sump conversion help with the lift? I wanted to drop it and not lift it but I can see your kit says I need to lift it.. do I have to when using the rear sump kit?
Your designs and conversion parts are extremely high quality. I saw your manual transmission conversion parts as well. I wish there was a mechanically controlled OD transmission we could bolt to this engine. Preferably with 5 speeds or more. Having the engine run at 3k rpm is not good for it.
2400-3000 is where you want to operate at. These were made to spin - can safely drive at 4500 rpm all day long if your ears can stand it. But 2600 gives best mileage.
The 700R4 is the only mostly mechanical unit w/ OD I can think of that I'd be willing to try
@@doomsdaydiesel I have been looking at putting one of these om617 engines in a Jeep ZJ, your kits are interesting, however while I enjoy driving a manual trans in my mustang, I do not want it in the ZJ. I want a very mild lift with an OD trans that can bring me close to the 2k rpm range at 60mph. I know this can be done with gearing too. I also want to keep the 4wd on the ZJ. Pipe dream I know. The 700R4 is interesting, I was contemplating the 4l80E but having a trans controller defeats the mechanical pump diesel reliability.
@@Engineerd3d anything below 2400 RPM is lugging this engine and will cause damage. Aim for 2600 at highway speed.
Just go AW4
@@doomsdaydiesel I can't find allot of info on AW4 trans. Does it need a controller? Or mechanical?
@@Engineerd3d depends on the year
