Forklift smoking? Think you need a new engine? Here are some “ball park” estimates for the price of a remanufactured engine. Keep in mind this does not include labor to replace engine, shipping costs or accessory parts such as new water pump, belts, filters, etc.
Prices below do not include labor. Labor to install a remanufactured engine usually runs around 24 hours. If your forklift has a cab (making it more difficult to remove the engine), you should add around 8 hours. Labor usually runs anywhere from $75 – $140 per hour depending on where you are located. In other words, labor can run anywhere from $1800 – $3360 plus the costs below.

Looking for a Nissan j15
Hi David, This is an older engine then we carry rebuilt.
I see you sell the gm 4.3 for Toyota forklifts. I have a fd45 with a Toyota inline 6 cylinder diesel. Can I put the 4.3 in it?
Hi David,
We haven’t done it but believe there would be way too many mounting/configuration problems.
Can you check please check price and availability of a replacement long block for a TCM FVG15N15 ser# 4230103. Thank You Frank Lozano Inland Marine 925-757-1714
