2UZ Swap Tacoma Long Term Update, Fuel Mileage and Weight

Did I ruin this Tacoma by swapping the 2Uz into it? The short answer is NO!! This truck is so much fun to drive, but a lot of you have asked a pile of specific questions about it. So here is a quick update video update.
I have been daily driving my 2UZ Swapped Tacoma for a few months now, and it is AMAZING. Having the V8 under the hood with the 5 speed manual trans is a perfect combo. I do need to make a couple changes to the truck to make it perfect, but before I jump into those jobs I wanted to drop in here and leave you with an update and answers to the most common questions I get about the truck.

So I owned an 06' tacoma and an 04' 4runner with the 4.7 at the same time and I have come to the conclusion that Toyota absolutely dropped the ball by not building this truck. Had they made the 2uz available in the tacoma they would have absolutely owned the small truck market. More so than they already did. They would not have been able to make them fast enough. I loved me tacoma but I could get better mileage and far better drivability in the 4runner.

Sequoia guys and tundra guys running 35s behind their 2uz run 4.88 years. Factory 4.10 is what the first gen sequoias came with, granted about 2k more lbs. so for sure 4.10 to 4.56 would be the sweet spot. Ypur mpg is solid as well. Going to a higher gear ratio, it’ll for sure pick up some highway mpgs!

I had a 1st Gen Tundra with that 4.7 and that is a very smooth running V8. From a paint and bodywork perspective, if you decide to paint match the fenders and bed sides, I'd also paint the grill surround. I think it would give the truck an overall cool custom look. Great project btw!

I had a 1999 Land Cruiser 100 series that came with a 2UZ. Ran 35"s and when I swapped to 5.29s mileage went up according to the hand calculator. (It did require using an 80 series rear carrier with the 100 series side gears for anyone curious how I managed that). The engine isn't working as hard with that mechanical advantage. Also picked up 1-2mpg by swapping in 12 Hole injectors. Probably best bang for the buck mod on the whole rig. Used it to tow thousands of pounds of shingles a day when I was a roofing contractor. It was the 4 speed trans so at 70mph RPMs were spinning around 3k. If you do a ton of highway 4.88s may be better, but for off-road and around town the 5.29s are excellent. Those gears with the 3:1 low range transfer case gears would make that thing crawl up anything I pointed it at.

@marcochavanne 5 ай бұрын

I'll also add it had the weaker 2 pinion front diff and it never blew up. Never broke a CV either despite flogging on it. With all that gearing you aren't stressing the drivetrain as much or spinning the tires really fast like when most people blow up IFS parts.

@Willytwoscoops 8 ай бұрын

There are a lot of other factors that got into that, it’s a good rule but 4.10’s won’t be as good for this build. 4.56 are the sweet spot for this build between highway RPM’s and good crawl ratio

@@BigTireGarage I would say 4.56’s would be better as a lot of the 4R/GX470 guys run 4.56 or even 4.88’s with that engine with autos; add that an 3.91 in FJ’s with 6 speed as well as 3.73 with the Tacoma. I think you’d be happy that combo personally without high RPM’s

Really enjoyed this. I had not been following this particular build. Glad i came across it, because you stuck with Toyota instead of following the trend and swapping in another brand diesel or gas engine. The Toyota V8 has more than enough "power" and "torque " for the truck. However I am curious if there is any aftermarket performance improvements available for this engine ? Lastly you mentioned the gear ratio. Fully understand that and being able to calculate the tire size and rpm range to determine the best gear ratio... however just out of curiosity. You mentioned you have 35's on it. Would 37 's be able to fit and give any advantages over the 35's ? before calculating for the gear ratio running the 35 inch combination. Always enjoy watching your programs. Have watched you since you first started on television years ago. Always entertaining and insightful and just great projects. Continued success always.

Yeah it might be interesting to see a re-weigh. May not be as much different, but since there wasn’t an appreciable “cross weight” it may be your issue. Anybody who builds from scratch or completely re-configure the vehicle like you do should be using scales. When I was doing the circle track stuff it was obviously an imperative. But I do wonder if you have actual cross/wedge.
