Ok, so I'm going home this weekend from school to pull the 22r out of my truck. What kind of things should I be concerned with as far as things that will hold me up, or maybe the easiest way to do something. I've never pulled a yota engine, so I dunno if I'm in over my head or not yet.

Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks.

 

as long as you have a hoist its pretty much a piece of cake.

get coffee for the morning and beer for the afternoon and you'll be ok

 

Most difficult is the top bolts on the tranny housing, ecspecially if no body lift. Easiest way is long extensions and swivel joint. Also make sure you label everything you disconnect with tape and some kind of discription.

Attempting this for the first time is a great learing experince. take your time...it's pretty straight forward and not that difficult.

 

haha. i do have a hoist, and we have plenty of beer at home, so i should be in good shape. and, i do have swivel sockets and a couple long extensions, so i guess i'll be in good shape. thanks for the help guys

 

Digital camera and take lots of pics.

definitely will. i wanna document the whole project. i have some pictures of it when it was still on the car trailer after we brought it home. if i get unlazy, i'll post those sometime soon

 

I need to do a lower end job on my 87rnnr and have never pulled an engine..I have however done pretty much everything else(88 k5 blazer, and 87rnnr). Anyway, I feel for you...
goodluck
