Finished my 3RZ swap

My 22 blew up and I did not want to replace it. Came across a deal for a wrecked 2000 tacoma prerunner for $900. It had hit a freeway barrier on the pass. side and broke the wheel off the spindle. Pushed the tire/wheel so hard back it bent the frame and crumpled the cab. 

I took everything but the body and put it in the 4-runner. Now it has a 3VZE and all the tacoma electronics and wiring and the rear axle with the e-locker and a FF kit from front range, a front diamond with a FJ80 HP e-locker and Marlin dual case with 4.7's.
