PTO Land Cruiser LJ73 to power mechanical winch

Hello Finnish Land Cruiser enthusiasts,

I'm a 22 year old man from Belgium, so I can't speak Finnish. I hope English will do?

I'm the owner of a 1980 BJ40 and a 1990 LJ73. On the BJ40 I have a mechanical winch, which works great. I would love to have a similar winch setup on my LJ73. I would use the winch and the driveshaft of a BJ40 mechanical winch (with some adjustment and welding it should be possible).

The problem is that here in Belgium, the J7-Landcruisers never came with a PTO (power take off) on the gearbox. This part is unfindable in my country. I have seen that many Finnish LJ70s are equipped with a PTO on the gearbox.

I already found entire gearboxes on Finnish second hand car parts website, but never a seperate PTO.

My question: What is the price in Finland of a PTO for a 1990 Landcruiser LJ70/LJ73? Does anyone have this part lying around?

In the attachments, you will find photo's of the LJ73 for which I need the PTO. The second photo is of the place where the PTO should be mounted on the gearbox:

Hi,

English is ok in here. In finland it is common to have PTO because of our taxation.
And now days many have been taken that away and yes i belive that you can find it from finland

PTO = "voiman ulosotto" in Finnish. Perhaps possible to find with that word also

And your car looks fine :D

Have you tried offipalsta.com

Also HJ60 and HJ61 pto should fit straight to that transfer case.
Lots of those cars in finland.
I would prefer 2-way pto like you got in 40 series.
Our LJ and later HJ cars have only 1-way pto, so you cant change direction at pto stick, only by gears...

Jussi: Thanks for the website, I will post my questions there if I don't find the part here.

BJ45lava: You mean a PTO of a BJ4 with a 5-speed gearbox? Such PTO's are even rarer than a PTO of a LJ or HJ in Belgium. Do you have any idea what sort of price I'm looking at for a one-way PTO out of a LJ70 in Finland?
Kind regards

You can get those for 50-150€ here easily, every 40, 60, 70 series here got one on it, so those are almost waste metal here.

I think that one from 75 or 61 series rotates other direction than 40 series pto, but that is not problem.

Thank you for the information. That's a very good price.
I have calculated that shipping costs of a PTO from Finland to Belgium are around € 50 (by regular post). So if anyone has this part and wants to sell it, please contact me. Of course I will pay the price of the PTO + the shipping costs to Belgium in advance.
Kind regards
