So I have an 01 4runner that I picked up from a guy and he swapped out the transfer case and I think the transmission as well to the 96-98 year. Now I know the transfer case is different and I've found someone that I could pick one up from. I am curious about the 4wd system though, I'm reading all around the 01-02 are electronically controlled and all others are vacuum controlled through the VSV. My 01 currently has a VSV installed manually done by the previous owner.
Other than swapping the transfer case out, what else am I looking for to get her back to it's original state. I would very much like be able to use the 4wd lights on my dash, rather than shifting to 4H or 4L and sticking my head out the window.
