Good call, I did the same thing. The constant check engine light got old real fast for my OCD so I only ran my 4Runner like that for about a week.

Yes, not sure if you can see my sig, but the link is there. My 5-speed swap starts here: Jake's '99 Limited "Build" Thread - Post #62
I did not document everything or provide step-by-step instructions, there's plenty of information out there on how to do the swap. If you have any questions I'd be happy to answer.

Since you have a 97 this thread might help you
koltlt 97 sr5 build thread
He has the pin charts on there that you can use for either repinning your auto harness or just for the dash plug if you use a manual harness

Awesome thanks randy! Been following your build for a bit, ordering the clutch tonight hopefully will get started ASAP!

you'll see on my build thread I had a heck of a time finding where the two last wires in the dash harness plug were supposed to go to, but I finally found that they go to the little grey plug that's next to the ecu, I have pictures of it if you need them. that was probably the hardest problem I encountered in my swap
before getting the wiring harness I just took the neutral safety switch off the auto trans and plugged it into the harness with it turned to the park position, that allowed me to at least test drive it

That’s how I plan on rolling till I find a 97 ecu, my buddy has a 98 ecu and engine harness for me but from what I understand there’s differences

Well I got my clutch today, looks decent kinda skeptical about a amazon clutch but they claim it’s a stage 2, as far as price goes it was half of what the price was for a stock clutch at oreillys. Does anybody have experience with a amazon clutch?
