Mlcc 1990 Trunner build 3.4 swap

i ended up having to replace the whole parking brake assembly so now its working and the brake warning light is no longer on the dash. I also replaced the trans oil temp sensor and that fixed that warning light, so now im down to only one warning light, the chech engine light.

 

Had some fun the weekend at the dunes and in the woods but the front suspension got knocked out of alignment and the right cv axle broke.

 

Got everything fixed and squared away. Also finally the allpro bumper came

 

Moved the 12v wire from the turn signal connector to the marker bulb connector and put in a bigger peanut bulb and now the marker light is a turn signal.

 

35s

 

Welded some tabs on the bumper and got the lights mounted.

 

Well this morning I hit a deer going 65mph... I cant have nice thing's. It bent and cracked a weld on the bumper but should be easy enought to fix. It also knocked the LF suspension out of alignment. I aligned it and it turned out good now I just need to fix the rest.

 

Pulled the 4runner bumper straight with the tacoma winch and Im pretty happy with how it came out.

 

I guess ill do an update,

Replaced wore out idler arm
Replaced leaking power steering pump
Replaced broken speedo cable

Next on the to do list is to make a switch holder in the dash. I accidently turned on the aux lights when I parked it last and killed the battery, the switch is in the center console next to the rear window switch so its super easy to hit on accident.

 

Brought home a wrecked T100 as a donor for a 3.4 swap

Made some progress today welded up the cross member. Cut of the mount from the T100 crossmember used some scrap metal I had laying in the yard and welded it to the 4runner crossmember. And ended up cleaning up the whole crossmember and repainted the whole thing.

 

Made some progress today, installed the 3vz alternator using the 5vz bracket, new radiator installed and hoses, fan, installed the battery/ starter harness. Installed starter and 3vz brackets that bolt the bottom of the block to bell housing.

 

Had to order a new fan pulley bracket due to the old one being bent from the t100 crash. So ponied up some dollars to order a new aisin one.

 

Progress update, installed engine harness and ended up using the 3.0 battery harness to keep the battery in the stock location. Replaced the bashed in passenger window. Made and connected a custom fuel line. Installed the T100 power steering pump and used the 3.0 power steering lines. All thats left is ecm wiring and the rest of the exhaust.

 

Finishing up ecm wiring
