Yes, 3.4L V6 3rd gen 4Runner's and the 3.4L V6 Taco's are the same. 4th gen 4Runner is totally different.

An easier way to know is by engine code. All 5VZFE's should have the flat-front airbox, allowing for the mod.

Hey Nick

The Deckplate mod for the 4Runner and your 01 Taco is the same!!! The engines in both trucks are the same!!! And you can hurt your truck!! You are just making the truck breath better!!! Just remember that with the Deckplate mod, you can always put the deckplate lid on and return your air-box to stock!!
Good Luck

If you want to check it out, on my Runner check out my site!!
