    Gauging interest I'm parting out a 2000 tacoma 2.7 4x4. Frame is clean and rust free, From NM. Is anyone interested? I'd rather take it to scrap than strip it all down and not be able to sell it, but hate to see good parts go to waste.

    I needed a 2.7 for my 95.5, plus it's got 4.56s and manual hubs, body and interior are trash. I need to steal the engine harness also it's a 2 coil 8 port and the old one had a distributor

    Indeed, it's rough and it lost a wheel from a bad ball joint. So technically it's only got 1 manual hub

    I'm assuming the frame is different for a 3.4?

    That is correct, Also transmission crewmember may be in a different location depending on what transmission you have. Front or back 3 inches. Everything ells is the same.

    It looks allot better in the pics, but all the goods are there. It's the first factory 4.56 truck I've come across. 90% of the 4cyl trucks are manual around here. My 95.5 is manual and had 3.91s. It's got the worst springs ive seen too. Rear is 1/2 inch from the bumps, front isn't much better. It looks like a 5 lug

    Still for $400 you stole it. You got about $4,000 in parts there. The last parts truck I picked up was a 2.7 with an a340f and it came with 4.56 gears.

    Was just down the street, no front tires laying in the dirt. It looked like a 5 lug from the road. It was missing a strut, cv and spindle. Guy was going to take it to scrap but he couldn't move it. It started right up, I was shocked it even ran. Have you ever swapped a newer 3rz into an older truck? Is everything a direct swap minus the engine harness & ecm
