6 Speed Manual 4x4 trans to 2RZ-FE

Is there a way to mate late model tacoma 6 speed manual trans w/ transfer case to the 2RZ-FE engine in my 2000 tacoma 4x4 ?? Or will I need an engine to trans adapter ?? Or will another Aisin 6 speed with transfer case work ??

You have the W59 transmission. There is no easy bolt up to mate any 6 speed to your 2rz. You can't even bolt up the r150 to it.

No pre-made adapter kit either

 

Make an adapter Using two new Bellhousing`s is much easier then old and corroded weathered ones

Get the correct clutch

Adjust cross members and Transmission brackets and driveshafts to work .

It all comes down to how bad you want to do this .

How much Fabrication you can handle yourself.

It can get expensive !!

 

More trouble that it’s worth. You’ll need to machine yourself a bellhousing adapter amongst other things.

I don’t think the 2RZ has enough power to justify a 6 speed either.

 

A interesting fun project to keep out of the house.

We all do things other people think are quite Dumb at times.

 

Your Hilux has the 2RZ? Thought y’all got the Diesels. I think it’s the 1KZ?

 

good point and catch

 

wish my '04 3.4 L had a 6-speeed

 

My '03 Hilux was built in Colombia and came with a 2RZ-FE. Diesel Hiluxes weren't available here until 2009.
