(Correct vin#FJ40919225)Toyota began developing its bJ model prototype in Japan in 1950. However, it would not be branded Land Cruiser for about four more years. Unlike the Willys Jeep of the era that ran on a four-cylinder engine, Toyota dropped an inline six-cylinder in their design. Early models were ordered by police and forestry departments wanting a vehicle with competent off-road ability. Land Cruiser, built in Toyota City, Japan, would make it to American shores for the '58 model year, which was also the first year a hardtop was available. Then Toyota introduced pickup and wagon versions in Japan for the '61 model year but not for the U.S market. Over the decades there have been many body configurations globally, with some types available only in some world regions. They have been produced in hardtop, convertible, station wagon, and truck versions. With the Cruiser still being offered today, the 4WD icon celebrates 65 years in existence. We'll take a look at the more popular gas-engine models still wheeling in the U.S. 40 Series (1960-1984) The classic Land Cruiser that people most readily identify with is probably the FJ40 model that was introduced for the '60 model year. The 40 Series Cruisers were available in several wheelbase lengths and worldwide body variations were many. Early Cruisers used a Ball & Claw front axle joint until about the '68 models. Following that, the front solid axle used Birfield joints in the closed knuckles, and both axles used drop-out third-member differential assemblies (9 1/2-inch ring gear) that were offset to the passenger side. Leaf springs were used on all four corners, and the 40 Series started out with drums at each wheel. Beginning with the '76 vehicles, they were equipped with front disc brakes. The original powerplant was the 3.9L I-6 F engine that was used from the '60 through '74 model years. A larger 4.2L engine, the 2F, was offered starting in for the '75s. Both engines were carbureted. Although never officially available in the U.S., many 40 Series Land Cruisers (and others) were built with diesel engines for shipment to various world regions. The 40 Series used a J30 three-speed column-shift manual transmission in the '60 to '73 model year trucks and was then upgraded to the H41 four-speed (3.56:1 First-gear) in the '74s until the remainder of its model life. No auto transmission was ever offered. The gear-drive, aluminum-housing transfer case had a low-range ratio ranging from 1.96:1 to 2.31:1, depending on year.
