What Tranny Do I Have?
my truck is special.... its an 85 4x2 and seems to have a bunch of parts peopel say it doesnt have... i have confirmed it has a g662 rear end, which is an 8" rear with 3.07 gears and 2 pinion.. engine is a 22r, late model.. the truck is a RWD truck only... so no transfercase.... the vin plate says w46, but that is a 4speed... my truck has a 5 spped... everywhere i have looked, i havent seen any mention of a 5 speed in a 4x2 that wasnt a 89+.... anyone know what model tranny i actually have? also i have looked through the pictures on marlins site, and the 89+ 5 speed doesnt look like the 5 speed my truck has

got any pictures of the celica one? is there a way visually to tell what model it is...
it isnt i dont know who did the modifications, it is that it does have a 5 speed and nowhere can i actually find info on what the tranny is.....
my truck might even lie and it could be original, everyone here on yotatech said i had a 7.5" rear end, but i kept digging and it is definately a 8" rear end sua single axle 5 lug axle

My father had a 83 or 84 22re that was 2 wheel drive and had a 5spd, so it does exist. Im looking at a haynes manual and im thinking you either have a g57,g58 (2wd versions), the 84-86 carbs have a g52 but that is only 4 wheel drive. According to this book the only 2wd trannys are: the L series, g40, g57, and the g58. The Lseries is only 83 and earlier, and the g40 is 4 speed by the looks of it, so that only leaves the g57 and g58. I think the g58 is only available from 89-95 with add (true for 4wd at least) while non add 89-95 have the w series (4wd). So Finally that only leaves the g57. Now this is purely just know facts, looking at a haynes manual, and the process of elimination so i wouldnt take any of it as gospel. Try asking www.marlincrawler.com they only deal with 4wd but they are the best so they may know about 2wd.

Yeah i was just going by what the manual said, it didnt say that the w series was a 2wd but i guess it is. Im guessing you didnt always own this truck all along. My guess would be that someone took the 4 speed out and swapped in a similar era 2wd 5spd out of a 22re model because i know they had a 5spd. Once again ask marlincrawler.com they are the foremost expert in toyota 4wd trannys so they should know something about the 2wd

i have looked @ marlins site and done some comparison, and the tranny i have doesnt look anything like the 5 speed offered in any of the 4x2 trucks....

how different is the w56 from the w55? why is no information avaialbe on the w55 (well that i have found anyways)
my truck is a 4x2, so that rules out being a 4x4 tranny..... the tranny i have does look liek the picture marlin has on their site showing a w56 2wd.... is there a way to idnetify it on the case?
