Prerunner to IFS 4x4 (FJ case) list of conversions

People seem to periodically ask about how to convert their prerunners to 4x4's (non SAS) and what all is required for it etc. well i'm really bored at work so i'm attempting to consolidate some of the threads that i've found from this forum and others. Bear with me here as i slowly collect more information. Any input or links to other threads is greatly appreciated as well!

without screwing with the computer, you'll need something to trick the front diff into thinking its linked to the 4x4 ecu, which you dont have because you're a prerunner, doh. fortunately rock solid toys has developed an ADD harness that you simply have to hook up to the actuator that you wire a switch to so none of the 4x4 electronics will be needed.

what you'll need (taken from VanCity4x's thread) and seems to be the most accurate-

A750F 4x4 Transmission
VF2A FJ Crusier (Automatic) Transfer Case
Tacoma Front Diff w/ mounting hardware
CV axles
4x4 hubs/bearings
CV nut/seals
Front drive shaft
ADD Harness - replaces ecu
Custom tranny crossmember
Modified rear drive shaft
modified y-pipe exhaust
+large assortment of mounting bolts, seals and misc parts

so far this is what i've found, as most people want a manual T case when they convert because a little switch is ghey.

idk if this will help anybody, but it might eliminate some of the "im butthurt and want to convert to 4x4 threads"

enjoy

 

Thanks for the info

 

thanks for the consolidation, have been lookin into this and have seen both threads in the past. Lookin at doin this to my PreRunner after savin up some $$$, then I just gotta find someone willin to help after I aquire all the parts

 

This little beauty from Inchworm looks like it was released on 12/20/13. This would eliminate having to find the A750F (4x4) trans and be able to bolt up a transfer case to the A750E (prerunner) trans. Has anybody installed one yet?

that looks promising, may try that to eliminate finding the A750F 4x4 Trans
