Yeah I just got my bell housing today. Yay. I'm gonna pull the 3.0 out on Saturday so I can start mocking everything up. And did u use the input shaft spacer and did urs have a crack under the slave mount. I will put up some pictures on my thread tonight when I get home.

Thanks RMA
Im using a aftermaket GM rad. About 20in wide. Got it for about 200cdn$ That fan is a 16in flexalite. Expensive compared to those on ebay but its more reliable and more cfm. Can't remember these numbers tho.
Those engine mount are from a ford like i said. From inline 6 cyl late 80's. Can't remember lol. Some peps use those in their 300zx. Thats where i found that. Cheap mount mod. 25$, its a deal.
The engine bay, and miss febuary in the corner lol





Front diff drain plug

round tooth spider gears

4.56 gears are are to find. Well, used.

The bellHousing:
No cracks on mine. I would say the product is good but communication from the seller is bad. No input shaft spacer. Didnt came with it. I asked the seller but he never answered. Same as the 5-6 other questions i asked. But anyways
The slave mounting point is way to tall. Well on mine it was. They sell the BH to fit the R-series transmission so i guess the clutch fork dosent have the same lenght on every tranny. By making it too long, buyer can cut it the lenght he wants.

I did cut about 3/4 on mine and its still about 1/8 too tall

My slave is a bit sweety. I will change it soon and remove that extra 1/8 meat.

Im strongly suggesting to mount your clutch fork, cut mounting point a desired place, drill deeper and retread for longer bolts. (i lost both bolts on the road, so a working clutch to)
Also, i suggest to do it before installing engine/trans in truck. That will save you swearing words

I don't know how i missed this thread...tuned in!

I did spent a lot of time in the garage lately fixin up things. I installed my missing sub o2's (thanks for the info toy2k).
I made a nice lookin switch panel. Made some clean up in the wires, installed some aux lights on the bumper, added rear speakers and rewired them all.
I finaly installed a C.B radio and did a super clean up in the truck.
When i told my girlfriend I was about to pass the vaccum in and wash all the mud inside, she told me "yeah right" lol.
And if my truck could have speak at that very time, he would have said the same thing.
Well, he's now a happy truck.



Got my ball joint spacer from the mail

Installed a new badge on the tailgate


The shiny inside

No more wires on the floor

I had spare time so I installed one hood shock from the Sc400


and yes, i changed my calendar to miss march lol
CB anttenna

This is what i removed from the slave mounting point

New slave

My prerunner lol. This is with the spacer. It looks better. I might need 2" spacer at the back now.


Finaly got my hand on a front diff. Paid 90$ for a used one. I had to get it of the runner but its in good shape and its 4.56
Thanks to my buddy who gave me a good hand with that one.
This is how i put the oil in. It looks redneck but its a hell of a good trick.

A hose in the bottom, a hole on the side, a bit of air trough the hole...20-30 secs per liter. No mess hehe.

Feel free to comment
Cheers !!

Now I know how I am going to fill my diffs from now on. The pump I have takes FOREVER!
Thanks for the tip, and truck looks rad, bet it sounds the bizness also

Yota 3.0

Looks good Dave, I am glad you found a diff becasue i looked for mine and i couldnt find it, there is just too much snow..

4.0 Pickup

No prob James. Im still a taker tho. I'll love to have a welded diff with 4.56 on the shelf as a spare one.
Oh yeah, no more check engine. Im so happy lol. I will have to fill the fuel tank and see if i do a better milage with all o2's connected. Well, i hope cause it burns fuel just like the 3.0
More power on demand thats for sure.

toyminator2000

So I guess what I suggested worked?

4.0 Pickup

Yeah !! Thanks for the tip man.

RMA

What trick ?.. ... so you were getting a check engine light with the sub o2's not installed ..


i ran my 4runner with out rear o2's for about a month , and i never got the check engine light for that .. wonder why?

also the maroon 4runner.. the same thing no rear sub o2's for a while and no check engine light for that..

Yota 3.0

My CEL is on because the secondary O2's are not connected.. Maybe you have some special wiring magic RMA lol

RMA

ohh ohh i need to check on this .. if i disconnect them right now and run the truck the check engine light wont come on for that ..

but i passed reff and smog so not sure why this is .

Yota 3.0

it "should" trigger the CEL. maybe make sure the light is working?

RMA

no... the light is working ..it comes on when i first try to start the truck ... i just called my friend with the maroon runner and asked him if he already installed the rear o2's and guess what he hasnt , hes still running with out the rear o2's and no check engine light for that .

RMA

ill check back later .. im at work and need to get working

Yota 3.0

^lol it's funny how many people cruise yotatech at work.

Let us kno RMA

4.0 Pickup

So true James!! I even check yotatech on my cell phone and im pretty sure im not the only one.
RMA, you are using a older ecu model if im not wrong. Maybe your ecu is a bit more stupid than mine and you don't get the CE light.

4.0 Pickup

I was thinking about that later today... yet, there is no ride i didnt got WOT since the 1uz swap. Even a litle ride to the corner store for some milk. Right foot must hit the floor. Thats weird. Maybe its the sound?! Probly not because im young and stupid. well, maybe. Anyway...lol

4runnerguy
