Interesting swap for sure but with enough time and money anything is possible. I think you'll have to engineer most everything...body mounts, steering, engine vs body placement, shortening the wheelbase, fender extenders? Seems to me you would be dollars and donuts ahead to source a used 4Runner frame.

Not knowing just how you define hard.
It will be a interesting and fun project
Are you talking about a frame or a rolling chassis with the differentials and suspension ??
From the work involved it will be faster and cheaper to make a new frame for the 4Runner
What is wrong with the 4Runner dash ??
