    1.5" Wheel spacers all around, 2.0 fox coil over with foxes in the back to match it up, add a leaf. 285/70/r16 general grabbers. my magnaflow exhaust k&n intake just threw in some maxtrac spindles. Total chaos UPA. Bunch of other little things
    That's a 4x4 isn't there an issue because mine is a 4x2.? The other problem is I gotta find a shop to install it plus I don't have 5 grand to drop doing all this. Trust me I would jump all over it in a heart beat I just don't really have a lot of money to blow right now. Maybe next year with my taxes haha.

    I would buy the engine if I could get a few guys to help me swap mine.. Any takers..?? :) :D

    Yeah I deff don't want to buy a new truck. My single cab is almost paid off.

    Yes sir Jeff I'll be there Friday at 6 Anyword on that light yet.?

    Also anyone have one of those blue sea fuse ciruct breakers things before i buy a new one

    Besides the engine what other parts would I need to get? If it's not too crazy I'm seriously considering doing this if I could get some help with the swap. I'm tired of my weak ass 2.7

    harness, motor mounts, have to look into what transmission you have and if it will bolt up, need exhaust manifolds and all necessary tubes, cats ect. its a laundry list.

    Prolly just easier to dump it off on a shop I'm thinking. Definitely going to wait and save up it's going to be a lot but a v6 in a reg cab.. Wooooo watch out

    going to be big $$$ with a shop. better save up and do it yourself. plenty of time to read up and learn exactly what you need to do.

    I turned you to Kevin because it was more than just motor he had. But I wouldn't go the shop route, I would buy a different truck first.

    Supercharger would be sick I just always thought a v6 in a single cab would be different and pretty bad ass. Like Jeff said there's enough time to save up and think about it. I just hate my 2.7 and now that Jeff drove it and laughed up a storm on it, it made me get annoyed driving it haha

    "Our development vehicle was a 2009 Tacoma with the 2TR-FE 2.7L engine and a manual transmission. The truck had an off road lift and larger than stock tires. The before dyno using a DynoJet chassis dyno was 117 RWHP. The after dyno was 248 RWHP. The after dyno was done without the catalytic converters installed and the Stage 2 pulley."


    im seeing between 230-250 between different years of the 1-gr. 5+ grand to be just as fast as a v6 sounds like a bummer.
