Models.
The J40 / 41 / 42 was a two-door short wheelbase four wheel drive vehicle, with either a soft or a hard-top ( V ). It was available with various petrol or diesel (from 1974) engines over its lifetime. It was replaced on most markets from 1984 by the J70 series ( 70 / 71 ).
- The FJ42 is 4X2 model, for only The Middle East.
- The J43 / J44 / 46 was an extremely rare two-door medium wheelbase four wheel drive vehicle, with either a soft or a hard-top ( V ). It was replaced on most markets from 1984 by the J70 series ( 73 / 74 ).
- The J45 / 47 was a long wheelbase four wheel drive vehicle, available in two door hard-top or four door station wagon or two door pickup models. The 4door station wagon model ( FJ45V-I ) was the shortest-lived of the J40 series, as it was replaced by the FJ55G / V in 1967.
- The Bandeirante ( OJ50 / 55 / 55 B / 55 2B, BJ50 / 55 / 55 B / 55 2B ) was a J40 series built in Brazil by Toyota do Brasil Ltda from 1959-2001. Identical to the BJ40 in almost every respect, it had a few stylistic modifications to the grille and used a Mercedes-Benz diesel engine ( later replaced by Toyota 14B inline 4 direct injection Diesel engine ) for much of its production life.

Engines
Over the years Toyota has changed the engines used in the J40 series. The B series motor is a 4 cylinder diesel, and the H series a 6 cylinder diesel. The diesel engined trucks were never sold to the general public in the USA, though some found their way in as mine trucks. The engines are similar, within the series. For example, the F and 2F engines share many of the same parts, however. H and 2H have almost nothing in common. There are individual models within the engine series, for example, there is an F125 engine, and an F155 engine, all in the F series with different power ratings. Here is a list of some of them (the power and torque figures may vary depending on the market):
| Engine | Capacity (l) | Power (hp) | Torque | Used |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| F | 3.8 | 105/125 | 189 lb·ft (256 N·m) / 209 lb·ft (283 N·m) | 1960–1975 |
| 2F | 4.2 | 135 | 210 lb·ft (285 N·m) | 1975–1984 |
| Engine | Capacity (l) | Power (hp) | Torque | Used |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| B | 3.0 | 85 | 141 lb·ft (191 N·m) | 1974–1979 |
| 2B | 3.2 | 93 | 159 lb·ft (216 N·m) | 1979–1981 |
| 3B | 3.4 | 98 | 167 lb·ft (226 N·m) | 1979–1984 |
| H | 3.6 | 90 | 151 lb·ft (205 N·m) | 1972–1980 |
| 2H | 4.0 | 115 | 177 lb·ft (240 N·m) | 1980–1984 |
| OM314 | 3.8 | 85 | 235 lb·ft (319 N·m) | (Bandeirante) |
| OM364 | 4.0 | 90 | 235 lb·ft (319 N·m) | (Bandeirante) |
Features
- While not legal in some countries, most J40 series vehicles could have their roof and doors removed. With a folding windshield this allowed for complete open-air experience.
- The J40 Series also featured folding jump seats behind the passenger and drivers seats. These folding seats not only made carrying another 2 passengers possible, but also allowed for maximum cargo space, as opposed to the folding rear seat in the Jeep CJ series.
- Original factory winches were driven directly from the transfer case (known as P.T.O. or power take off) powered by the engine. Later models had an optional electric winch.
- Today the J40 Series is prized for its compatibility with General Motors products. Not only does the J40 accept the same 6 lug wheel as GM, but the transmission is also compatible with the Chevrolet small block engines, including the 307, 327 and 350 cubic inch models. This allows for engine changes and upgrades, a viable option as surplus engines and engine components for the original J40s are becoming scarce.
