4L80 Transfer Case Adapter – GM 4L80E to Toyota Land Cruiser 19-Spline
This 4L80 transfer case adapter kit allows a GM 4L80E 4WD automatic transmission to be mated to a Toyota Land Cruiser 19-spline transfer case used in late FJ40 and FJ60 applications. Designed for strength, accuracy, and long-term reliability, this adapter is ideal for drivetrain swaps and heavy-duty off-road builds.
The adapter assembly measures 3.19 inches in length, with a combined 4L80E transmission and adapter length of 29.19 inches. The adapter housing is manufactured from 356-T6 heat-treated aluminum alloy for high strength and reduced weight.
Toyota Land Cruiser Transfer Case Compatibility
This 4L80 transfer case adapter is designed for Toyota Land Cruiser split-case transfer cases produced from August 1980 through 1989. These transfer cases use a 19-tooth internal input spline, which is matched by the included spud shaft for proper engagement and torque transfer.
GM 4L80E Transmission Requirements
This adapter kit is intended for exclusive use with GM 4L80E 4WD transmissions. The 4L80E is electronically controlled, similar in strength to the TH400, and features overdrive for improved drivability.
Important transmission considerations:
- A rear output shaft speed sensor must be used
- The rear reluctor ring must be present in the transmission case
- 4WD 4L80E transmissions up to 1996 typically include the rear reluctor ring
- 1997 and newer 4WD 4L80E transmissions may have the sensor provision but lack the rear reluctor ring
Before installation, confirm your transmission is equipped with the rear reluctor ring to ensure proper operation.
The 4L80E gear ratios are:
- 1st: 2.48
- 2nd: 1.48
- 3rd: 1.00
- 4th: 0.75
