Hey everyone, first of all what a great site.

I'm replacing the 22re in my 1992 4wd Extended-Cab Pickup.
After 210,000 miles and a burnt valve I've decided to go with a rebuilt engine from Sunwest Automotive (located near Spokane, WA).

I purchased a Chilton's Manual to help with the process but any advice would be helpful. I have alot of experience with chevy small blocks and 70's trucks but this is the first import engine I've worked on.

Day 1: reference pics taken, all vacuum hoses marked with masking tape, fluids drained

*probably going to be a while before I go any further, I have to pay tuition before I buy the engine lol. Go Cougs!!

I have tons of pics, but they exceed the kB limit or something. How do I resize?

 

Here is a thread for a little reference on removing and installing an engine.

It's really not too hard on these engines. The toughest part will be unbolting and reattaching the tranny.

Once you get into it, you could knock it out in a long weekend.

As for the pics, just up-load them to photobucket and copy and past the url code into the reply area. Done!

Good luck
