Wifes '00 4Runner has a wimpy 2.7 4 cyl. auto. in it. Very good condition and doesn't really need anything. It's OK around town but I really hate getting out on the highway with it.
I'm thinking a 5.9 swap so it will get out of it's own way.
What years are best? Seems like I read some year model trucks with manual trans, the computer will work with any trans. Thinking A518 w/ the 3 wire hook-up. Better suggestion?
Brake upgrades are simple so that isn't a problem. Rear diff. is an 8" and lived well in some V-8 'yota 4x4 trucks I built.
Looks like a long , cold, winter around here this year so I need something to keep me and the grandson busy.
