I am going to include every part bought and every mod done with measurements! I will take pics of all the parts that I have gathered tomorrow! Lets start with a parts list.

First;

The truck is an 1987 SR5 4x4, 5-speed. Already had a blown motor.

The swap kit, easy,

The engine mounts are;

Have also made some motor plates.

The headers are;

These will have to be modified to fit;

The collectors I will be using instead of the flanges are;

The radiator is;

Fuel pump will be a Walbro 255 in tank!

Now for the plans;

The truck has a 4" Rough Country lift kit and a 2" body lift. Body lift will be removed. 35"x 12.5r15 BFG KM2's on black steel 15x8. I will be rotating the upper intake to allow the use of a Snorkel. Also I will be cutting the front out of the grill not only to allow the ease of install but also to allow me to move the radiator as far forward as I can. I will probably have to modify the steering damper location and the oil pan to get it low enough with body lift removed!

The exhaust will be self made 2.5" Y-pipe to 3" single and the exit will through the side of the bed. I will be using the following wiring schematic with maybe a few enhancements.



More to follow with pics tomorrow!

 

Some pics of the project so far! Hopefully the work will start next week.

 

Some more.

 

Sorry not of a Toyota but interesting all the same.

 

Nice looking truck, looks like you have it well planned out, look forward to seeing your progress!

 

The problem I have found with these swaps is the threads on them are all different and many people have different ways of doing it. That's why with this one I will log every step including wiring and part numbers. So that it can help others. Thanks Rusted, I am going to use the FJ cruiser sandstorm paint and replace the stickers too. I haven't seem too many trucks with this colour and sticker arrangement but that may just be me. I still want to keep it close to original on the paint although it will see rough use!

 

I am excited. First I will be cleaning and sorting out the truck. I will also be cutting out the front core support for easy access and modification for the bigger radiator!

 

Here are some before I started cleaning. Tomorrow I will post the results.

 

This is going to be cool. Keep the pics coming!

 

 

 

 

 

May the Toyota gods bless your project for keeping it Toyota. Gonna be a beast.

 

I hate when people put other makes of motors in. I can't wait to post the pics after she was cleaned. Next it's time to mod and paint the engine bay. Then make the engine mounts.

 

Silly typist He can't type!

I admire your work. If I can afford it I want to buy a few things from you for this project. Keep up the good work. By the way I love your Trekker.
