i have a haynes manual, its only good for ripping pages out and starting a fire to keep you warm when your toyota is broke down.
no seriously it was a waste of 20$
good tools? you mean a 12mm socket lol, rebuild the whole truck with that thing.
any brand rebuild kits to stay away from?

Honestly, i think it cleared up a lot for me and my truck and stuff of the such, i hate the vagueness but its helped me a lot. And yeah you're gonna need a good 12mm socket. Hahaha

Installation is reverse of removal.

Hey man, dont be so down. Everyone makes mistakes, we probably made the identical
mistake! I knew my oil pump was going bad, but I didnt really bother with it in my old
threw a rod shortly after.
Is your engine still running? Is it just a rod knock? If so you can just replace the rod in
the cylinder and hopefully that will solve the problem. I had a rodnock in the 2nd cylinder
I took off the oil pan, and took out the rod, and had it replaced along with new oil pump.
I would say see how bad the rod knock is first, and go from there. And dont worry if
youre not devising a rebuild plan yet, i waited 3 months just to do my rod. I had no
motivation to do it, but in the end, you gotta do what ya gotta do.
Engine builder.com is an awesome site for 22RE parts.

im still debating. biggest thing is i dont want to put a new wimpy 22re back in there. but i cant afford much else,, unless i sell my ski, and i love my ski.
if i do sell the ski, i could do everything i want to the truck and not worry about it.
so here i am, ramming my head into the wall.
lol this was my DD so i really f'd myself for being a moron.

I'd like to eventually like to do a 1uz swap. I ALMOST had my hands on a 94' SC400 4.0 V8 but then the guy just stopped answering my calls I think when i swap i'm going to do a 2JZ that's another option for you, i know you said you wanted a V8 but the 2JZ (straight 6) is one of the best engines by Toyota IMO.
