[QUOTE="Chris S, post: 493742, member: 5757"] So as stated above I actually started this engine swap last May. I set a goal of having it running by July 1st which I missed by 3 days.i had done countless hours of reading and research on this particular swap but could really only find the 3.0v6 to 3.4 swaps. That swap is covered in depth by many and most of the best tech I found on it was on yotatech forums. If your intrested in doing this swap do yourself a favor and read there tech! ( especially " wiring theory by the Monch") his explanation was most helpful for me even though it was for the 3.0 to 3.4 swap. Most 22re to 3.4 swaps I found would just show the start and the finish which was cool in that it let me know it could be done but wasn't very helpful in letting me know what I should be expecting so for that reason I told myself that I would post up what I learned to potentially help anyone else who is considering this swap if I was actually successful in completing it. The biggest difference I see in the swap vs the 3.0 swap is fitting the engine between the frame rails and then deciding where to weld your engine mounts in as the 3.0's will directly interchange with the 3.4's in every way except the wiring and battery/air filter location!This is not the case with the 22re's as the mounts are in the wrong spot and to narrow to except the 3.4 even if they were in the right spot! In my case (85' model) the frame width was 3 3/4" narrower than the 01 donor tacoma between the frame rails and it seems like a mile when trying to make everything fit.(BUT IT DOES FIT) with some altering :D [/QUOTE]
