Fink again sorry about that , and having the other thread i just wanted to give others the chance to see the start up of this 1uz ..... having the main thread here in "other swaps" no one visits this part of yotatech. so if you have to remove it its all good ..

 

Haven't gotten any complains yet.

Fink

 

Ok just a few questions. As for the transmission which did you go with the one that came with the 1uz or did you get a bell housing to use your old transmission from the 4Runner? Which transfer case did you go with? I noticed you put in dual cases other then the wrong seal were there any other big issues with that? Thanks

 

dude the tranny I am using is the auto from the lexus, I am using the inchworm prerunner adapter with a gear driven case and thats it . Not using dual cases .

the inchworm adapter does not come with eveything you need , you have to cut the out put shaft tfrom the lexus a bit also you need an extra spacer so that the coupler doesnt slide back while on the shafts. There is a 3/4 gap that if not filled will cause the coupler to slide also causing the 4 prong rotor to slide also.

 

So I got my driveshafts back today had them retubed and the front one was legthened by 5 inches and the rear shortened by 5 inches .



This is the place that did it if your local and need someone .

Also one of my neighbors that I never talk to , we just wave at each other when we see each other. Stopped by to see what I was doing with the truck and come to find out he works for a big steel supply company , he Gave me a sheet of plate steel 3/8th by 48 by 16 .. and reffered me to one of their customers so I could have it bent for my crossmember. So Im taking this in tomorrow. Thanks again Mike !!

 

RMA....really detailed thread you have going on......It will help a lot of members who want to do this "COOL" swap!!
Good luck!!....can't wait for you to post a video of it running... if you can when your finished

 

Hey Dwayne , Thanks alot man , I will definetly post a video of it running when done actually ill post alot of videos when done .

I am trying to post as much info as possible to make it eaiser for others , they can take what they like and ignore what they dont.

I wish I could have posted more info on the wiring but I was really stressed and my brain was hurting with all those diagrams and stuff .Just couldnt do it.

Hopefully if I can get the steel bent by friday and then I can cut and drill what I need to to make the crossmember, if so I can drive this thing this weekend. If not it will have to wait a week , im going on vacation and wont be able to touch this thing all week.

Thanks again Dwayne
