Possible 84 1/2 4runner
I may be able to get a 4runner with no engine in it for really cheap. It's set up for a 22re so I was wondering how much a rebuilt 22re would cost. If I get this I would sell my 4x4 and get around $1,500 out of it for tires and an engine for the runner. Is it possible to do this or do rebuilt engines cost over 1k? I hope not!

that is totally possible,
some rebuilt engines cost over 1k, but there are many options below 1k
Our rebuild was $850 and we got over 150k miles out of it.

sweet, yeah I've been watching ebay and it seems like I could get a block and head, but I would need EVERYTHING, intake & exhaust manifolds, whatever mounts the engine to the auto transmission, EFI components, that sort of stuff. I would like to have someone install it for me but that would cost even more. I have also thought about contacting "Zman" (Mark) hes pretty close and he has 4runners out the wazoo so he might even have a manual transmission I could get also. I'll be on the lookout, but I still don't know for sure if I'll be getting it or not. The guy I'm hopefully getting it from is on a local ttora board and he sent me a message to call him but he didn't leave it! Drove me nuts cause I want to know more about this runner....ANYWAY, looks like I'm just gonna have to be patient with this one.

i see complete engines in Y/T classifieds every once in a while. just be careful about piece partin one together. heads are of different heights which will screw up timing chain choice.

Yeah I'm wanting to get a complete rebuilt engine with everything on it, I'm kind of leary on piecing them together, I know different years have different charachteristics from the new job taking the heads apart. I have an extra engine, but it's got 316k on it and needs timing done as well as a conversion to EFI and a new exhaust manifold, so I'm wanting something that will last a while.
