Is there a way you could use a '86 toyota p/u transmission/t-case in a '73 FJ40?

Yes - but you would need to put a centered diff rear axle in.

You would also have to adapt it to the engine in the Cruiser, whether it be a F 2F or Chevy............the only reason I could think of would be to use Marlin's wide range of adpaters and gearsets for the mini t case, a better option might be like Mace and use a GM tranny to mini t case.......

marlin will have his cruiser tranny adapter out any time now, thats all i'm waiting for, then it'll be toybox time for me.
