87 turbo 4runner auto trans and transfer swap question
Hey guys....
I have a somewhat newb but somewhat curious question.
I have a project 1987 4runner turbo that I wanted to beef up.
My auto trans is slipping and howling going in between gears.
My question was this....what would be a direct replacement or bolt in beefier auto trans and transfer case.
I eventually, once I get it up and running, want to do some light wheelin and use it as a daily driver.
I dont want to sacrafice economy or performance but I guess I might be asking too much?
I appreciate any and all suggestions.
Thank you,

economy and performance...are we talking about an 87 turbo 22 rt ?
its gonna always be as economic as any turbo will ever want to be, and definately lack performance compared w/some v-8s out there..but dont worry about any of that..
lets focus on that auto tranny...
i would suggest a 5 speed or a metric mechanic

not sure if that will even / ever bolt up, but its performance...
i would suggest the 5speed , keeping it simple..and a new clutch..
sounds lke your clutch is getting ready to barf
