I have a 92' 4x4' with the 3.Slo. I'm considering the all aluminum 3UZ as opposed to 1UZ or 2UZ just to save the extra 100lbs of weight. And like you I'm starting with a 2" body lift. I bought it from 4Crawler Offroad. I'm actually putting it on today... 10-5-2021. My main question for the lift is did you have to do anything to your steering shaft (aside from bolt loosening to allow it to expand some). Did you have to pull it out and weld in a section or anything? And did you do anything to lengthen your gear shifter and 4x4 shifter?

Man, every time I think I can handle an engine swap I see a video like this and get a reality check. I've always done my maintenance and all the standard import tuner mods but this is on a whole other level! I think my car will just end up in the junkyard when the engine goes.

You running the gear T case? And stock axles?

Where did you get the motor mounts, and what trans did you use?

Hi, what electric fan stands on the radiator? Does it have enough performance?

Did you need a body lift? How long did it take to get it running? And how much was it to swap it?
