- I’m going to be posting some quick unedited videos of me going through this one 1uz conversion in an 85 Toyota 4Runner. 
If there’s anything specific that you guys would like to see in the next few videos please feel free to comment and let me know what it is you would like!
I will edit a link to the next video into this description once it is posted!
Keep them coming, I'll watch them. I'm 90% of the way done with my swap but man was the research a pain!
Any pointers?
@@jacob5412 there's alot of little things. Biggest time saver I wish I knew, when you install a Reman starter, highly recommended if your rebuilding the motor as it's under the intake, you have to tap it all the way in with a hammer or your flywheel will rub. Had to take alot apart learning that the hardware. Also it's a good idea to remove the knock sensors when installing the starter as they are fragile and will explode with the slightest tap.
@@dailyhauntedhistory thank you, much appreciated
Also, how well did the engine fit? What mounts did you use? Upon research ( not much info out there for this swap ) I found that there’s some grinding and cutting and possible sump relocation to make it fit.
@@jacob5412 I used the northwest toys mounts, and added a 2" body lift, they suggest 1" but I didn't want it to be too tight. It could move further back towards the firewall an inch or 2, but would need custom mounts fabbed. Om my runner 1st gen IFS, I used a front sump pan out of an ls400, and everything fit, no griding required. I did have to remove the steering dampner for the pan to fit, I plan on making a drop bracket for it and will be hooked up close to factory position just lower on the passenger side. Also I went from auto to a manual, between that and engine placement, I had to make a Trans mount adapter that moved the crossmember forward a few inches. Just flat steel with welded nuts that the mount mounts to, and then bolts to stock location on the frame.
That 22re sticker 😂
I have 1 in my FJ62. You can remove all the traction control stuff. Cartune company in New Zealand has tons of videos on these if you didn't know.
Never enough swap content! Subscribed!
Can't wait 👌👌 im doing the swap on my 91 pickup right now aswell
Let me know if you have any questions!
@@HalversonAutoUT just mainly the wiring situation is what the main issue will be im pretty sure
Would love a follow up on this project and wiring guide!
Would love to see more! I just started a 1uz swap in my 85 4runner. Going to stick with my w56 trans for now with the eBay bell housing and clutch conversion
Subscribed. I love Toyota content.

What’s your location?
Hey man stumbled on this video and your channel and im doing similar stuff!
Ehhem in 2015 i restored the real marty mcfly truck i know the 85s real well!
Subscribed! 1uz for the win! You may be interested in my 3rd gen 4r build
I just bought a 62 cadi sedan deville and I’ve been a sc400/sc300 driver my whole life. I’ve always been a 1uz & 2j cat over a ls just cus I like imports & not tryin to throw shade on Ls motors but I’ve been considering doing a ls swap for the cadi but I’m thinking of going with a 1uz but I’m wondering how complicated that would be ?
Follow up video?
I'm very interested in what it took to wire it up in place of the 22R.
Any updates?
Is there a big difference between swapping a 1st gen and a 3rd gen 4runner? I have a 3rd gen that I've pulled the tired 5VZ out and was going to rebuild and turbo but a local guy has a '93 SC400 with only 170K miles that I was thinking of maybe attempting a 1UZ swap.
Problem is 93 is non obd2, it can work by non emissions legal in most states
@@HalversonAutoUT We don’t worry about emissions in Florida, we leave that up to Californians.
