1994 Hilux Diesel Transmission Question

[Stillrunning]

I'm thinking of buying the above mentioned vehicle.It has what appears to be,serious transmission problems.Is the manual tranny in this vehicle hard to find or very different from a transmission from a gas model?I'd like to buy it but don't want to get too financially attached to it.

Which diesel engine? And do you know what the tranny is behind it now?

if its a W transmission then its the same as the gas model and they are a dime a dozen to find manual tannys for.

Pretty sure the manual is a r151 so pretty easily found
