Using 2WD trans in 4WD 2001 4Runner??
Looking for a used transmission for my 01 4x4 4Runner. Is it possible to use a tranny from a 2wd 2001 or 2002 4Runner. I thought the tailhousing's were different and the 2WD wouldn't bolt up to the transfer case?

I remember learning something about square peg round hole in kindergarten.....but I digress.
How mechanically inclined are you? Ie, how well would you be able to basically rebuild a transmission? If you have never gotten into auto transmissions, I wouldn't bother trying to swap a 2WD into your 4Runner. If you have swapped tcases and rebuilt transmissions before, it should be a pretty straightfoward swp. It is NOT a bolt on swap by any means.

I won't be doing any of the work concerning the trans. LOL I am simply bringing a donor tran into my tranny shop and letting them install. I was just curious, as to whether or not a 2WD trans could possibly work in a a 4WD 4Runner. I didn't think it would work at all, but figured you guys would be the ones to ask. Thanks.
