A 2-3 ft extension for your impact gun or ratchet will help you
reach the top bell housing bolts.
Don't forget to replace the pilot bearing while your in there.

It's a pretty straight forward job, it's just a pain for that top bolt. Also, much easier to install the clutch if you pick up that little plastic alignment tool to do it, that's for sure!

(Edited for clarity.)

Tranny jack is your friend! Much more stable then a floor jack. Keep in mind the tranny and transfer case is heavy. Friend of mine had his fall off the floor jack and crash his hand.....all cause he didn't want to rent the tranny jack.

You wouldn't happen to need the clutch and pressure plate, would you? I still have the one from the V6 I tossed when I swapped engines--it's a quality Marlin Crawler set, with plenty of life left on it. I also have the bellhousing, and a new slave cylinder, in case anything breaks on you. Good luck on those bellhousing bolts--they are a pain!

I can certainly check on it--I imagine shipping there is not cheap. I'm assuming you have a 1st or 2nd Gen with the 3.0?

If you have time that'd be awesome. Yes I got a 95 3.0

I know this is an old thread and I know its a beaten horse

I have a stock 1990 4runner 2nd gen 3.0L R150F. I run aggressive-ish tires and drive aggressively both on and off. Love manual transmissions for those reasons. I bought my 4r used and it has roughly 150k on it. I don't have a clue what all the lady before me did, didn't do. I used it as my daily before parking due to a mysterious coolant leak (Still haven't found this either). I have run him here and there keeping everything in order. When I moved it last I could barely get the clutch to disengage enough to shift. So I'm going to replace it all, flywheel, clutch, throwout bearing, and rear seal while I'm in there. Here's the big deal though I almost pulled the trigger on a center force before coming back to the forums. Now I'm completely torn. I have pretty shot knees so any extra on the clutch may end up bugging especially as a commuter, However, I want something with more grab than I experienced with whatever is in there. I often tow, climb with my rig, and need to be able to count on grab with a higher rev. MC though is out of stock and I need this done yesterday. Please help me with a good kit more bang for the buck and more I can buy from one source is better.

Thank you in advance!
