G'day

I had a 5spd box behind the L diesel in an ln46. The L is a 2.2 diesel.

This was a mod and the bellhousing was changed to suit the L diesel.

So more than likely yours may fit, best thing to do is call the wreckers and see what they say.

Crosso, mate Toyota's are great with interchangability. With the 1984 gearbox regardless if it was off a petrol or diesel the gearbox is the same as your 1989 however the bell housing is different. I am guessing you have a 1989 with a stuffed box so you will already have the right bell housing on your truck. Leave the bell housing, clutch assemble etc intact on your truck and bolted to your 22R engine. Unbolt your box and transfer and the 1984 box will go straight in.

Kas, are you sure the petrol and diesel boxes are the same?

Each time I put a box in from he wreckers, they asked me if I had a petrol or diesel.

I imagine the ratios should be different?

Im not 100 percent sure but if you go to outerlimits 4x4 and ask the same question in the toyota tech section you will get the right answer.:)

Yeah Dave, the Hilux 5 speed gearbox is called an L52 and is used both in the diesel and the petrol ones right up into the late nineties. The transfer box changed internally in late nineties to chain driven with a lower ratio but it was externally the same. The gearbox ratios remained the same right through, Toyota accounts for the difference between diesel and petrol engines via the final drive ratio in the diff, 4.3 diff ratio in the diesel and 4.7 diff ratio in the petrol.
