V-8 Conversions
Ranger Torque Splitter

For those of you about to undertake a V-8 conversion, the Ranger Torque Splitter is one of the best options for adapting a V-8 into your Land Cruiser. The beauty of the Ranger Torque splitter is that it not only will adapt your Land Cruiser 4 or 5 speed transmission to a GM bellhousing, eliminating the need for an adapter bellhousing, but you get an exceptional quality overdrive(underdrive also available) in the bargain. It will actually split, and overdrive(or underdrive) every single gear you have both in lo and hi range. Manufactured by Advance Adapters this unit is exceptionally strong, and features fully synchronized shifting, heavy-duty bearings, aluminum alloy case, and a 27% overdrive(or 17% underdrive). The unit itself is designed to handle 20,000 lb. GVW trucks! This unit is the ideal adapter for installing a V-8 into an FJ60.
The Ranger Torque Splitter is a fully functioning two-speed transmission with a 1:1 ratio for normal situations, and a 27% overdrive when shifted. Using a Ranger Torque Splitter with your 4 speed tranny will give you 16 speeds forward, and 4 in reverse! The unit itself fits onto the front of your stock 4 speed transmission replacing the bearing retainer, and bolts directly up to a Chevy bellhousing, forming the adapter for your V-8 conversion. This eliminates the need for a special bellhousing, and also provides the extra length needed to properly position the Chevy V-8 for firewall clearance, and eliminates the need for drivetrain modifications, or relocating OEM shift levers. Use of a Ranger Torque Splitter makes for one of the most straight forward, least complicated conversions available, while yielding some of the most useful gearing available.
When using this transmission you will be able to use a regular Chevy bellhousing, with all Chevy clutch components. You will need to use shifter bracket part no. 716287 in order to retain the Toyota slave cylinder if so desired. On some models the slave cylinder will have to be relocated so as to be on the left side. V-8 motor mounts, and other parts necessary to install the V-8 will have to be purchased separately. FJ60's can re-use the original transmission mount, pre 1980 FJ40's will have to use a rear crossmember or 4+Plus mount for trans/transfer. The Ranger Torque Splitter is compatible with both 4 and 5 speed Land Cruiser manual transmissions. Parts required for basic installation of adapting and mounting a V-8 are listed below. For help with your conversion call our tech line during business hours.
The Ranger Torque Splitter can also be used with the original Land Cruiser 6 cylinder engine, but in this configuration, drive shaft modifications will be required, and the original shift lever holes will have to be relocated. This conversion with the OEM 6 cylinder is best suited to the longer wheelbase of an FJ55, or 60 series wagon. Currently available.
