Hey guys has anyone ever heard of a WZ14 manual transmission I pulled it out of a 81 longbed 4x4. I have never heard of this tranny number. I looked all over the web trying to find info on it and nothing comes up. Any input on this tranny would be awsome thanks.

There is no such transmission as a WZ14 in a Toyota.

1981 Trans will be an L45 (4 speed) or L50 (5 speed)

WZ14 sounds like the interior color code. If it was a portion of the info tag that said "C/TR" then that means "Exterior Color code/Trim code" Axle and Trans codes will be listed at "A/TM"

Appreciate the inpute but I didn't get the number off the tag WZ14 is stamped directley onto the tranny housing on the drivers side up near the shifter. So I assume that isn't the tranny number? Also is there any way to determine which tranny it is I want to know what I've got before I stuff it in my 80

Also it is a 5 speed and assuming that it is the stock tranny for that year of truck is the L50 a good tranny to bolt onto my 80 or is there a better option for a direct bolt on no adapter install.

It will bolt in if you include the drivelines and shifter.

I checked the length on it 21" from front of bellhousing to were the tcase bolts on same as what's in my truck as long as that measurement is the same it should work with my driveline right? Thanks for the help gonna bolt it up tonight.
