Hey YT I'm possibly thinking about taking the 3.4 out of my wrecked tacoma and putting it into my 84 and replacing the 22r. I don't have a garage and this is out of my comfort level for fab work. In located in mammoth lakes, ca and would like to find a shop either in Reno or socal that has done this swap before. I would like some reputable shops that you would trust with your own truck.

Thanks

 

Inchworm gear.
Marlin Crawler.
Davez offroad performance (actually may not be the best idea, I've heard bad things about them).
Stoffregen Motorsports.
Yotamasters is the first shop I would call, though.

 

Thanks I've emailed yotamasters. Any idea if the swap is possible on a stock truck. I don't have any lift at this time but have plans to lift my truck in the future.

 

Anything is possible with enough money and a welder.

 

Haha don't have a welder or a garage or I would consider attempting it myself. Hoping the cost isn't to outrageous. Any idea what it would cost from a shop.

 

If you want a quality swap job at a reasonable price head up the road to Eugene, OR. Toy only Swaps they do great work! It was five hundred miles one way for me, but well worth the drive. I love the swap and have had it for almost two trouble free years.

 

If you don't mine me asking how much did they charge.

 

Realistically you're talking at least 32-50 hours of labor. Multiply that by $60-$100/ hr. and you'll see your price range.
