Ok, so heres the deal. My dad has a 1986 Toyota pickup 4wheel drive, base model. I can probably pick it up from him for dirt cheap, its got 250,000+ miles on it, but runs fairly decent and has no rust. The only downside to this truck is that its carburated. I'm thinking about buying the truck from him, and swapping all my stuff from the 4runner to the pickup (Locker, bumper, winch, shackles, and fuel injection.) I don't ever carry more than one passenger in the 4runner at a time so I don't really need the extra room. I would have plenty of spare parts for things like dual cases and what not. What do you guys think? How big of a process is swapping the fuel injection over? Looking for suggestions thanks.

Seems like a lot of work for not much benefit. I always loved the removable tops of the 4Runners, so i'm probably a bit biased towards them. I would take the money you would use to buy it and build your runner a bit more.

I have a almost complete EFI set up I would sell.
it is out of a 87 sr5 4runner.

I have almost everything but the injectors and fuel pump.

and I could get those if you wanted.

if you or anyone else would like to buy it make a offer just don't lowball me
call around to some junk yards and get a quote for a complete set up then make me a offer shipping it will cost some cash just the wire harness and the intake weighed almost 50 pounds and it was a pretty big box shipping quote was around 75$ last year.

Thanks for the offer, if I get the truck i'll still have the 4runner and i'll put the EFI from it on the truck.

Man im ganna have to tell you that there is no downside of carb. Its stronger than EFI. it may not get s good gas but its a tottal stronger motor. Plus you have to buy a kit for the swap.

Thanks for the input, but I have to disagree on the carb being stronger, and with all the Emissions crap, its a nightmare and a dog (my 4runner with the top on will smoke his pickup, and thats not saying much). I'm pretty sure everything would be a direct swap.

only advantages of having a carbd engine is for racing, since the carb will inject fuel up until the engine blows, the EFI will only inject up to a certain point, then quit.

as for the swap you will have to pull the dash and every thing behind it on both trucks and to get to the wire harness.then you have to reinstall it back into the other one.you will have to swap the exhaust manifolds for the o2 sensors.
the intakes will need to be swapped same as the throttle cable.

you would be better off buying it and finding someone who wants to trade a efi truck for your 4runner or the truck.
