    So turns out my 380k mile 1st gens 3.4L has rod knock and is toast. I'm shopping for a good used motor to swap into it but lack the space to do the swap. I'm in Santa Cruz with a small rental and street parking so no go there. I'm a mobile classic car mechanic so not new to this type of work at all. I have all my own hand tools, engine hoist and drip pans so not a drop of fluid is spilled. Figuring the swap would take one long day/ 2 days Max (weekends are totally fine). Will gladly compensate for your space/ time.

    Greatly appreciate any and all help from fellow Tacoma owners in the bay area!
