Ford Swapped Toyota Tacoma Prerunner! | BUILT TO DESTROY

[@scottnewport2828]

I'm so happy it doesn't have an LS in it just like everything else does.

Truck is awesome but the “Center Council” had me dyin. Lmao

[@kefue94]

😂😂😂 same

[@Gunner6391]

One day I want to PreRunner my FJ but with a 2jz😎 Great build❤

[@daviddrennan1759]

Funny thing is on my 2015 tacoma I put a 2nd gen tundra 10.5 rear axle and gained like +4 track width and lots of strength you can do the same on that fj I believe in you😃😃

[@freethinkingamerican80]

No you don't, I had a first gen 4runner with a 7m-ge motor, it was cool but it wasn't lol

[@Berm_Blaster]

I don't think a 2j will do that well In a prerunner. Gotta have a turbo to make any power which means you gotta be in the high RPMs to make that power. No low end torque.

[@WhyBeNick]

302 is a great option for the small trucks. Solid power, dirt cheap, and the dimensionally smallest (common) v8 available. Swapped my Ranger's Lima 2.5 for a stock Explorer 302 and it's a whole new world.

[@Jroracing]

This one wasn’t so much cheap haha but it did fit very well.

[@andrewaguilar8317]

Where is the best place to obtain a cheap 302?? 👁👃🏽👁

[@WhyBeNick]

@@andrewaguilar8317 If you want a solid runner straight out of the junkyard, best source imo is 95-2001 Explorers. GT40/GT40P heads and GT40 style intake from the factory. Peak Windsor 5.0 before they canned the engine entirely.

[@peternielsen589]

Let’s not forget the real star of this episode, Axle the dog!!

[@joseangelgarcia5299]

I’m so glad you guys included Axle 😍😍😍😍

[@RonnieBravo_]

I ran Toyota pick up bedsides on my Tacoma back in the day. It actually looked really good.

[@fish_built]

Yessssssssssssss so hyped on this truck

[@terra-crew]

It's so good!

[@perrymahnke886]

Awesome Fordyota & awesome attitude, thank you for sharing!

I am possibly going to go with a ford power plant, maybe chevy depending on wiring and cpu pricing for both.

[@manueltovar4821]

Thsts just bad ass we need more ford power plants

[@andrewaguilar8317]

I need to meet this dude

[@REVO33lover]

Badass taco! The BentTube line up. Where’s the video of “Mikey”? And the Axle reveal 😂

[@quinnmortensen1415]

Great truck. Love all the Ford in a Toyota work.

[@dontcallmemarty2177]

That’s a sick Ford Tacoma

[@olsonfun]

As much as I love an LS swap, it's nice to see something different

[@bigalbranim614]

Wait hold on I’m mid build right now, why don’t we run brake booster’s…?¿?

[@JamesBonesss]

Been wanting to long travel my 2005 Jeep Grand Cherokee but no aftermarket support and I don’t know crap about fabrication 😤

[@robertliles2400]

His own unique style and wants 💪💪👊👊🏁

[@mondo_stunts27]

I’m probably that guy flooring it past jeeps and Tacomas in my 23 year old v8 cruiser. I wanna supercharger it this coming year, would be so nice living at altitude.

[@jonerton67]

Good job boys

[@Nickwillfixit]

You talked about it looking like an RC car check out the TRAXXAS UDR Unlimited Desert Racer or the Kraken-RC VEKTA 5 "TT" 5TH SCALE gas Trophy Truck I I also have the LOSI Super Baja Rey, my UDR has the TRD Ivan Ironman's truck livery. Love these built show and tell keep them coming as here is a Brit living in the UK who can't get to see them in the metal.

[@codykelley8614]

Is it possible to get ahold of him and see if he will make me some headers for the same motor?I just did this swap and having a hard time finding headers that will work with the ranger

[@ivanrubio3391]

We need Kyle power episode

[@jsheldon5169]

CripMacc made me giggle. Shout out to the editor.

[@MA4x4GA]

Great inspirations,I'm stuck- prerunner my stock96XJ4x4or my stock 93D21xe4x4any suggestions?

[@ghostofhobs]

Explorer shenanigans ended with an Extera.. Ha

[@skeetermcswagger0U812]

All the dudes in the shop were so embarrassed when he did the 'Hoyeah' (putting their faces in their hands) it was such an ultimate cringe moment that even the cameramen tried to pan away. I got a feeling hes not gonna be able to live that down for a while!! (at least 2 months)😬

[@growlith6969]

They fuck around until the 15 minute mark so if you want to see the engine that's where they finally get to it.

[@sanddan525]

Why so much camber at ride height? Bent from the landing in the jump at the beginning?

[@Jroracing]

This is a completely different front end then in the video. The camber/caster we built into the beams helps the truck corner better. It makes it want to push out of the turns instead of the tire folding out and riding on the outter edge.

[@stonedmunkey]

Bro what swap meet did he go to ?

[@shannon3931]

Did this truck start its life as a 5 lug 2.4L Taco?

[@shannon3931]

@@azzz..6 think you're right man, earlier pictures look like it was a 6 lug. I love seeing built 5 lugs with how cheap they are compared to prices rn vs. their 6 lug counterparts

[@alishathompson3349]

Love it

[@cameronutter1]

I don’t hate the engine swap but how did he blow up the 4Banger in it prior???

I’ve blown a head gasket in my 4 banger, not too fun of a job to do

Whatever you do, don’t build structure with flux core....unless you don’t value your life.

[@Berm_Blaster]

Lots of structural stuff is flux core. I've had to weld up some structural pieces that required it be welded by .045 flux or dual shield.

[@xamideex8937]

@@Berm_Blaster If it’s not going to vibrate then yes. Flux core does not like movement, or flex.

[@jamesborst8383]

Engine anticipation let down ( sorry ) could have picked up a Toyota 4.6 or 5.7 for less, just saying

[@jackmossman7559]

And had no room whatsoever to package it. Smort

[@jamesborst8383]

@@jackmossman7559 your building a custom vehicle, make it all fit anywhere and every where, nothing custom is cookie cutters that’s why it’s called custom fabrication. I was expecting something amazing in the engine compartment and for ME personally it was a let down

[@jackmossman7559]

@@jamesborst8383 wrong, there’s packages that just won’t work. A Toyota V8 is easily 8” wider total, that affect shock mounts which then effects cycling on the beams and travel numbers. Then you have to put tube work around it, headers, run lines, mounts, etc. there’s a reason why people don’t do it. Cause it doesn’t fit….

[@Jroracing]

We had many different options of motors that we could put the 302 was one that fit very well in the engine cage that we already had built. And to build a Toyota motor to make more power cost a hell of a lot more than it does to build a 302. The packaging of this fit the best out of all the different options that we had.

[@jamesborst8383]

@@Jroracing well you can get different transmission ratio, 3rd member ratio to ease the motor and make it feel like there is more power then you actually have, reliability is all I’m taking about, you build the truck to take a beating and the motor should be reliable unless you trailer it to and from

What a waste of parts

How so?

How is it shitty?? A 331 is probably one of the best stroker motors that you can build high revving good power and a good reliable motor. 😂
