For any future searchers. It seems the tcase from the 3.4 5speed transmission is unique to that setup. So when finding a donor, it has to come from the same 3.4 5speed setup.
Also, there is a JDM AWD transfercase that looks identical to the J shift case. I believe it must have come from an AWD...
So it turns out we found a new version of transfer case. The shift pattern is not the J, but it looks exactly like a J shift case. The only difference, it's about 1" longer than the J case making the rear shaft too long and the front shaft too short.

I have a 100 series. Did a 96 tacoma, 05 Tacoma, 2003 4runner sport, 2005 4runner sport again, then the 100 series and I finally found just the right fit. It's by far the best truck I've owned.

It seems I have the right 5-speed manual, but the transfer case only seems to have 4h and 4 l, and no...
Hey all!
So my friend had a major incident with her 98 sr5 v6 5speed 4wd rear locker truck. I believe her double cardan broke while she was on the interstate and ripped everything apart.
We found a JDM transmission and transfer case on eBay and ordered it.
I got them in today and the...
