1. swap you prerunner transmission for a 4x4 one w/t-caseshadymilkman said:what can you guys tell me about converting my 99 3.4 prerunner AT to 4wd
the hardest part is swapping the transmissions, i dont have a body lift so its a pain in the ass to get to the bolts on top. have some swivels and at least a 3' extension and have a buddy put the socket on each bolt while you pull them outshadymilkman said:how long did it take you drabnor. how much mechanical skill did it require, what was the hardest part.

other than that its prety straight forward but if you arent comfortable swapping the trans out then dont attemp it. make sure you use line wrenches on those atf lines(we had to cut mine off, they are expensive!)
total cost for me was around $13-1400
$400 for frontend
$600 for trans
$100 for front d-shaft
free rear d-shaft
$90 for 4wd solenoids
$75 for new 4wd transmission mount
$100 for misc stuff, atf, wires, switches etc...
i swaped the trans first, started on friday night, got the trans out around 11:30pm lol. then saturday we spent most of the morning getting the new trans and t-case in along with the rear d-shaft so the truck was driveable
then i finished it all up like 3 weeks later. put the front diff in, swapped spindles and put the cvs in and front d-shaft and wired up the solenoids
yea, but at least his swap worked, LOLsnutty said:you suck i got off my ATF lines jsut fine with a wrench...![]()

yea, like snutty said, the ce light goes away as soon as i put a speed sensor in. my transmission did not come with one and toyota wants around 200 bucks for itKyota said:Auto hubs? WHat'd ya do about the check engine light?
lucky bastard! those lines are like 50 bucks each and no stealer had them in stock so i ended up having a custom line made up that worked temporary till i could get the stock linessnutty said:you suck i got off my ATF lines jsut fine with a wrench...![]()
