No, unless you are able to get your hands on a r151f bellhousing (extremely rare)
You are better off finding a tranny from another four banger.

Welcome to the boards by the way!!!

http://www.4crawler.com/4x4/ToyVIN.shtml of course that assumes the trans had never been changed.

also take a look at this: http://www.4x4wire.com/toyota/faq/parts/

In short the carb 22r got the G trans and the 22re got the W trans.

Why do you say that? It's pretty much the most common 4cyl trans out there.
