Gear linkage operation for installation of Toyota's 1VD-FTV Turbodiesel V8 in a 100-series Land Cruiser wagon (HZJ-105).
In order to install the engine, fabrication of gear and transfer levers was required.

More videos as the conversion is finalised.
@ihatewii1 Hi mate. Because the new gearlever is slightly lower than the original, the bottom of it needs to move left-right slightly. Without the ability for the rod end to slide along the shaft, it's impossible to select gears as the whole assembly binds.

nice but why so much slop in the rod end bearing on the axis?
