norcal707 these trannys do not like heat, that's why i had it on a separate cooler, after that you'll never have any problems.

 

just call me smithy thank you sooo much for the tranny, the 4runner is running great. my friend and I are trying to sell it for $2700..It was a pain in the **s to put it in...

 

Hi guys. I have a problem with my new tranny...well, the tranny works great but when I drive my 4runner, it takes a while to shift gears and when it does, it kick in very hard..I checked the gluid level and it seem ok...I put 6 quarts of tranny fluid when I was done putting the tranny in...any suggestion on what to check? Thank you

 

I drove a Ford one time that had that problem... I think they found that the pick-up screen and some of the fluid galleries were sludged up from old dirty tranny fluid.
I'm not at all familiar with yota auto boxes though so the same issues might not apply.
