Motor mount question for Supra (2jz) engine swap
 

I am wondering what similarities there are between Tacoma 4 cylinder and V6 engine bays, specificly the motor mount pads on the frame. Is the part that the rubber motor mount attaches to the frame the same between the 4 cyl and v6 trucks, and how about 2wd vs 4wd? and 85-95 P/U trucks and 95+ Tacomas?

The thing is, that I make 1jz / 2jz engine swap bracket kits for the 85-95 2wd trucks, and I am wondering if the engine brackets and mounts will work on V6 or 95 and later trucks. If the motor mount points on the frame are the same, then I know it should work. I keep getting people asking me if the brackets will work on Tacomas or V6 trucks, but I havent personally done the swap in those trucks, so I cant say for sure. Any pics of the frame and mounts would help.

Thanks,
Randy

You make JZ mounts for trucks now too!?

Yes I do...In fact the 1jz truck that is running the prototype brackets just did 405 whp at 18 psi on pump gas. I went for a ride in it last week. its crazy!!

To bad nobody here knows anything about the motor mounts.....I am sure the 4x4 guys would love to have a 300-800 HP 2jz in thier trucks.

good read ! randy did you need a front or mid sump for the truck swap? (jz)

Randy, send a PM to DeathCougar, he works at Nix99, a Toyota/Lexus wrecking yard here in Wa state. He might know

4cyl trucks have their eingine mounts set about 1" farther forward towards the front than the v6 trucks. I think the distance apart and angle are the same though.

used 2 have a supra now have a yota truck neeed more power
 

so what kind of cost would i be lokin @ 4 the 1jz or even the 2jz conc=version i know what that motor can do it would be amax=zing in the truck any info plz send my way

the mounts for the tacos are at a different angle and farther apart than the earlier models, but they use the same rubber motor mount. there is a market for the 3rz into the 79-95 trucks and 4runners though, im currently working on a kit for those.
