As far as your speedo being off, do you have bigger tires than what came stock? As far as the bouncing, I believe you have a cable run speedo, cable might be loose.

I have stock tires. Maybe the security forces roadside radar was off? Ill go look and see if the cable is loose. Ahh Does anyone offroad with a 22RE and have good results? I finally got my "new" 4runner to the base im at now and am used to a 3.0slow. And want to dump money into mods but I figure it might make the 22RE break :-p

The cable gets old, and makes growling noises, You can get a new one, and the noise will go away.

I am interested in your experisnce with having the differnt engines. Lets us know how you feel after wheeling it for a while.
Maybe in a differnt thread though.
