1984–1990 Toyota Land Cruiser FJ62, FJ70, FJ73, FJ75, BJ60, BJ70, BJ73, BJ75, HJ60, HJ75 Repair Manual (P/N 36262E)

Built around exploded assemblies, troubleshooting tables, and factory task sequences, this manual is suited to experienced technicians who are comfortable using Toyota specifications, test gauges, presses, and special service tools. It covers chassis and body repair for Heavy-Duty Land Cruisers rather than routine maintenance alone.

• Coverage and document identity: Toyota U.S.A. & Canada Pub. No. 36262E, supplied as a 720-page PDF, for production dates 10/84 through 1/90. Applicable series are FJ62, FJ70, FJ73, FJ75, BJ60, BJ70, BJ73, BJ75, HJ60, and HJ75.
• Clutch and manual transmission: Covers clutch adjustment, booster testing, hydraulic bleeding, cylinder rebuilding, and clutch-unit service, followed by H41/H55F transmission removal, complete disassembly, component inspection, case-cover setup, reassembly, and installation.
• Automatic transmission: Provides A440F fluid inspection and adjustments, stall, time-lag, hydraulic-pressure, and road tests, automatic shift diagrams, valve-body service, plus transmission and torque-converter removal and installation.
• Transfer, axles, and suspension: Details transfer teardown and electrical-shift diagnosis, propeller-shaft repair, free-wheel hubs, steering knuckles, semi- and full-floating rear axles, conventional/LSD differentials, wheel alignment, leaf springs, shocks, and stabilizer bars.
• Brakes and steering: Includes master cylinder, booster, vacuum-pump, drum/disc brake and LSPV service; brake bleeding and pressure adjustment; steering columns, gear housings, linkages, power-steering pumps, pressure checks, and bleeding.
• Body and body electrical: Separates 60/62-series and 70/73/75-series door, glass, roof, trim, instrument-panel, fuel-tank, and frame work, with troubleshooting and component tests for lighting, wipers, gauges, heaters, windows, locks, sunroof, and audio equipment.
• Winch and air conditioning: Documents PTO-driven mechanical and electric winch inspection, drive systems, internal repair, motors, and magnet switches, along with R-12 A/C diagnosis, refrigerant service, performance testing, and single/dual-unit component repair.

Chassis & Powertrain Breakdown

The manual transmission section separates the H41 four-speed and H55F five-speed case-cover and geartrain procedures, including synchronizers, shift forks, countershaft/output-shaft work, inspection, and final assembly. Automatic diagnosis follows Toyota's preliminary-check sequence to isolate engine or converter faults from transmission faults before line-pressure, governor-pressure, shift-quality, and road-test evaluation. Transfer coverage includes output-shaft oil seals, diaphragm-cylinder service, internal overhaul, and electrical-shift control checks.

Axle repair distinguishes semi-floating and full-floating rear designs, conventional and limited-slip differentials, and front hub/knuckle arrangements. Setup and inspection coverage includes pinion preload, ring-gear backlash, tooth contact, bearing and seal work, and axle-shaft checks. The brake and steering chapters extend to booster and vacuum-pump rebuilding, LSPV pressure adjustment, steering-gear overhaul, power-steering testing and bleeding, and tilt-column service.

Body, Electrical, Winch, and A/C Coverage

Body procedures distinguish lift-up and swing-out back doors, standard and Canada-market windshield work, tarpaulin and FRP tops, roll bars, seat belts, fuel tanks and lines, and frame dimensions. Electrical checks account for 12- and 24-volt equipment, market variations, and selected LHD/RHD layouts. The winch chapters cover both mechanical and electric systems, while the A/C section documents FJ, BJ, and HJ single- and dual-A/C circuits, compressors, condensers, front/rear cooling units, expansion valves, switches, relays, and VSV controls.

Precision Data and Reference Values

The Service Specifications appendix consolidates component-specific torque data, fluid capacities and lubricant classifications, pressure-test values, wear limits, clearances, preload/backlash data, alignment specifications, and electrical checks. A separate standard-bolt table and SST/SSM catalog support the repair procedures. Referenced tools include automatic-transmission pressure-gauge SST 09992-00093, companion-flange holder 09330-00021, drive-pinion bearing tool 09556-30010, and booster fixtures 09753-00012/09753-40010.

Diagram support includes H41/H55F and transfer exploded assemblies, conventional/LSD differential component views, transfer electrical-shift and A/T fluid-temperature-warning wiring diagrams, model-specific A/C circuit layouts, and automatic shift charts. The six-page Electrical Wiring Diagram set is specifically indexed for 1985 production vehicles and covers starting/charging, 4WD, winch, lighting, instruments, heaters/A/C, and body accessories.

Scope and Repair Cautions

Internal engine repair is outside this chassis/body volume. Toyota directs 3F engine work to Pub. No. 36253E, B-series work to RM035E, and 2H work to 36048E. The automatic chapter does not contain a full internal A440L/A440F overhaul; Toyota assigns that repair to Pub. No. 36264E.

The manual also flags damage-prone operations: excessive vise pressure can deform a propeller-shaft tube, and tilting an automatic transmission during installation can let the torque converter slide out; improper converter positioning can damage the oil seal. For under-chassis work, use the series-specific lift/support locations and stands—Toyota warns against working beneath a vehicle supported only by a jack.
