It will. Your not altering anything but the a-arm and cv axle angle. The frame and diff are staying in the same place.

I normally hate them but the trans cooler lines hang down and I don't wanna rip one of them off.

What do you have now? 3.0 ? Here's my opinion. If it ain't broke don't fix it. If you do have the 3.0 then maybe you can do the 3.4 swap in the future. Just remember, it's know weekend swap.

Yeah I got a 3.0, the 3.4 has a bad crank, it won't happen soon, but wondering if it's worth my while, and how I would bolt it up to my auto trans cause everyone does 5speeds

i can't help ya there.. I know nothing about the swap and I've never had the desire to do it. I'd rather have a 4.3 or a small block IMO. But that's me.

I had a T100 years ago that had the 3.4 in it and it really ran good. A buddy of mine has a taco with the 3.4 and it's pretty peppy too. So yeah one in a regular pup truck would be sweet but not worth the hassle for me to do it. Once again I'm running a 22re not a 3.0 so I'm really satisfied with what I got and would never need anything else.

As for the auto tranny hit up Google. There's a answer for everything on there.

If you were talking a gm or ford swap I could give ya info man but for now that's all I got. Us guys here on the east don't have a shop specializing in toy only swaps so we can't get the easy way out lol.

Oh I was up in Erbacon last weekend. There was 2" of snow fall while I was up there. I drove up on Fri and was there about 4 hours then came home. The wife and I only went to do some sight seeing up by Williams river. We had fun. I came right down Erbacon rode then we left out through birch river road until I hit 19 then it was I79 back home... Too bad you wasn't up there we could've met and ran around a lil bit. You gotta let me know next time your up there. At least a week before you go and I will make plans to meet you.

may be a faulty cold start injector. Do you have any codes stored.
