    Guys,

    I'm in the final stages of installing a replacement 3.4L motor back into my 2000 Tacoma. The donor motor came from an Automatic and I have not stripped the old clutch/flywheel off the old motor since I'm installing a new flywheel and clutch.

    When I removed the flex plate from the donor motor, there were two circular spacers - one on each side of the flex plate. I'm assuming these are not necessary on the flywheel. I'm going to dealer in the morning to buy new flywheel bolts in addition to pressure plate bolts, so I just want confirmation so I can hopefully drop the motor back in tomorrow.

    I installed a new rear main seal and pilot bearing into the crank so this is the last thing I need to do before reinstalling the engine.
