LX80 crossmember > 1jz/2jz

**triptek** · 09-04-2010, 01:25 PM

I'v started a jz conversion on a 1992 LX80 mkii. I was wandering if anyone could tell me if i'd have to change to a jzx81/mx83 series 2 crossmember. Already have jzx81 alloy engine brackets and mounts.

Any info is greatly appreciated.

pretty sure that is a yes.

the lx80 is the oil burner isnt it?

By all accounts, because its a later model it 'should' be the same as the S2, but ToyoDIY suggests it has a different part number so not sure what the difference might be.

Have a look at these pics and see if they help you identify yours.

And yep, the LX80 is the oil burner.

Cheers for the info guys. I confirmed it today that the crossmembers are different.

big_zop... The "L" in the "LX80" code indicates it's a diesel.

The crossmember comparison pics you posted possibly don't apply for the diesel engined models. They may have an entirely different crossmember again. Seems like triptek has confirmed that's the case.
