Until they are sold, are they ever really done?
It will never be done. There always changes that can be made, different turbos, better axles and suspension, fun gadgets to build for the interior.
I must have missed it - Did the 1KZ-TE swap into the 1988 4Runner require new engine mounts and custom oil pan? I thought the 3VZ-FE, 5VZ-FE, and 1KZ-TE all shared the same engine mounts and trans (R150/151)?
"Done" is defined as you're able to use it as originally planned and if you never added anything it would be a want and not a need.
The bellhousing on the 1KZ-te is specific to that engine and has the starter motor on the opposite side. The bellhousing is still available from Toyota Europe brand new. The input shaft I believe is also still available. This would allow you to use your R-150f I obviously haven’t done this but it seems like I have heard of others doing it. I dont see any reason why it couldn’t be done.
People contact me on occasion when they are doing this swap. I can sell it for you if you want to ship it over.
I have to find it first
Steve....hope all is well for you and the wife...
Way back in the very beginning of this thread you mentioned a sweet custom triple stick setup for your duals; do you have any details you'd be willing to share? you mentioned it was different from the radesign's setup in that it didn't require a bodylift/trans tunnel cutting. getting ready to put duals in an 85 surf and your triples sound very intriguing
did you have to do any trans tunnel cutting with this setup? left and right links look like they'd clear just fine; definitely a slick setup
glad to see you still have it going. Have you gotten out for some wheeling lately?
CONGRATULATIONShow old is she?
She is 15 months old so maybe when she is a little older we’ll go wheeling.
Snip... I made two low profile housings, one for each T-case.
can you share more detail on the shift linkage you made? Pics or drawings?Cheers!
