Whats up guys, im fixin to start a build on a 94 FJ and have been thinking heavily about a diesel swap after seeing videos on the R2.8, anyone know of a FJ that had this work done or a good diesel that would be good for this swap?
FJ Build - Diesel Swap
- Thread starter Mo Modena
- Start date
There are several Fj’s with the 2.8 Cummins has acouple on ther web site
Now that i have a bunch of time driving the R2.8 brute The best advice i can share ,IMO, is: its not as simple as stuffing the R2.8 in any vehicle. Unlike an LS, hemi, 4bta swap the R2.8 is sensitive to weight, gears tire size transmission.
Its a great motor
What is the weight of your FJ
What gearing does it have it
What size tires
What is your swap budget
