    I have a 97 4Runner SR5 2w/d with 330k miles and still running.i also have an 03 Tacoma TRD sr5. 4/w/d, with 133k miles. I hate the color of the Tacoma, and I’m wanting more room. How hard would it be to take the body off each other and swap?

    Wouldn’t it be an easier ordeal to swap the motor in from the Tacoma? The front diff and t case should mount right up to it for 4wd unless there’s an issue with top/forward shift on the t case/trans.
