Best How-To on the 5VZFE Swap?

I have a '93 Xtra Cab with a 3VZFE/5-speed. Should be the easiest swap possible. Looking for the best how-to for my application. I have the Off-Road Solutions guide that they offered on their website in the tech section some years ago. Now I'm looking for something a little bit newer and with less reference to particular products that the authors of the guide might have for sale.

IMO there is no one best write up. read all the threads you can find. Or use the ORS write up and ignore product references
Document what you do and post what worked and what didn't work for you

Best thing is to look for the same swap your doing.

So many different ways things can be done .

To me the hardest part is working on someone else`s work and having no idea how the electrical merge of the 2 vehicles was done

For me having the Electrical Wiring Diagrams for both vehicles is a must .

Asking specific questions when you get stuck is the best way
