@grreyes87 Wasn't really that hard but it does require some light fabrication ability. I payed an expert to do my wiring but if you can read factory wiring diagrams it really isn't all that hard. Most of the wiring colors are the same for both vehicles. I have a build thread on a forum here.
@Jay351 Most of your modern rock buggies and KOH buggies use an auto tranny now because it's not as hard on parts and you have more controlability. I'm currently gathering parts for another 1uz swap with an 88 4Runner and it will be a 5spd. It will be more of a daily driver/expedition vehicle.
How difficult was it to do this swap i want this on my 89 4Runner and want the 5 speed.... Was the wiring difficult??
