Congrats on having an FJ-40. I have some friends that keep saying they're finally going to sell the family Scout II.

You may be able to extrapolate from putting an AC motor on a VW transaxle. First gear is useless. Second is a good low end, for pickup. You can drive in 3rd all day if you don't mind oozing away from stop signs. 4th is like an overdrive, but the motor hits the knee in the torque curve and chokes.

I'm no help at all when it comes to machining shafts and adapter plates.
