    Hey guys I got an used engine form German & Korean Auto
    In Huntington Beach has anyone used this place before ? They have a 4.7 rating and the reviews seem OK. I haven’t put the engine on until next week but supposedly it has 26,000 miles and it’s from an 2019 Tacoma
    3.5L.

    You might want to check the plastic coolant pipe on the back of the engine and spark plugs before dropping it in.

    Nice to see used parts and spares become readily available for the 3G tacos. Good luck with your engine swap. Hope it goes well!

    My work bought an engine from there for a Hyundai suv, took off the valve covers and looked like no one changed the oil ever and returned the engine.
