Put 5000 miles on the swap.. literally havnt done a single thing since the swap. Just driven and wheeling. Seeing excessive rev limiter when off road during the snow season. Since swap I've swapped on new 37s. Turns em em no prob. Added a power steering cooler to keep temps under control with a pump meant for rack and pinion. No assist yet. Have the parts on the shelf just haven't tackled it yet. Prepping for turbo mid spring and making room for 38s. Will continue to update. But engine is amazing. Pulling a solid 25 mpg with 37s driving like a little kid.
Hey there Alpine, just checking to see if your around to help out. I'm just inquiring about maybe a list of parts you used in a short form, ie years and models of parts and maybe a wire diagram. I will be starting my swap into my 1st Gen soon and just need a little help creating a list. Thanks for any help.
hello everyone sorry for reviving a old thread but I recently finished 2tr-fe swapping my 1988 pickup. so a few things that were not covered by OP were wiring. for the sr5 cluster I retained tach functionality by doing the 10k ohm resistor trick that the 3rz swap people do. for the underhood wiring I opted to redo the wiring for all the engine fuses and relays because the taco fuse box is integrated into the dash harness and I really didn't want to deal with swapping that in. it is also possible to keep a/c/ I made custom hoses and reused the taco compressor and it works. in the near future I am going to get a VSS adapter so I can get mu cruise control working. currently I have done 10-15k miles on my swap. the truck is a daily driver and does 2000+ mile road trips on a regular basis. if anybody has any questions feel free to ask. I also have a few YouTube videos on my swap and I am very active on FB.
