Anybody used tdswaps.com?

Hello,
Been lurking here admiring all your work on your swaps. My brother and I are looking to do the same on my 89 V6runner and 92 22r Pu. Between the two of us we ether don't have the fab skills or the time to make all the parts,so we have been checking out tdswaps site and as far as we can tell they have a well built parts? And decent pricing. I haven't seen much info on them and was wondering what you all thought?

Just from what I can see on their site it looks pretty good. I have heard notihing of them but hopefully someone who has will chime in. I know a lot of guys have had good luck with Luke at 4x4 labs. Good luck with your swap!

Been talking to Brian at TDSwaps sounds promising.
They are working on mounts for 3.0 V replacement.
Lets keep these guys in business saves a lot of headaches.

I'll be buying a new engine in the next couple months for my truck. I'm still undecided between the OM617 and a TDI. If I go with the OM617 I intend to buy the kit from these guys.

Brian the tdswaps guy is going to give me all the major fab parts for not much more then the mid level. this includes the adapter, the motor mounts and the oil pan. sounds like an awesome deal to me considering 4x4 labs wants almost the same for their kit that doesn't include the motor mounts or oil pan but does include the flywheel. But flywheels are easy and cheap to drill and balance. I would much rather have good motor mounts and an oil pan. Less fab work for me.

he decided to just upgrade me to the mid level and throw in the oil pan for the same price as above. so far I am very impressed with the costumer service. hope the parts are just as good. let you guys know.
