This 3 part series is awesome, I used it as a guide for my engine replacement. There is so much extra info on replacing little gaskets, bearings, bolts, etc. along the way and I ended up buying specialty parts like hoses and gaskets from Yota1 that no one else carries ❤
bought my 22RE motor from nick 4 years ago.... amazing build, great service, really good install advice. The black powder coated valve cover gets a lot of attention when i pop the hood. This vid is an amazing resource!!!! so many good tips in here. A master at work. Wish this existed for my first motor replacement.
Yep, Yota1 makes solid engines. No doubt anyone doing a 22RE Swap will benefit from this series. It was really cool being able to shoot this video at Nick's shop and have Nick be the lead guy. It was a great learning experience. Thanks for the comment.
Watched all three videos and was convinced, YOTA 1 gets to rebuild my engine! I took it to them yesterday! I really appreciate these videos! Thank you thank you thank you!
Thanks. I appreciate the kind words. But, Nick at Yota1 is the real hero for this series. His extensive knowledge is what made this series super informative to our viewers.
This is awesome Timmy thank you!!! My wife gave me a 92 Pickup with motor issues for christmas so this is just what I needed to pull the motor out! Legend!
Heck yeah Timmy!!!! So glad everything worked out!!!! Awesome first video, shout out to Sean for the editing. Bad ass bro's !!! Also a big thumbs up to Nick and Rebecca from Yota1 Performance !!!!!!!
How did I miss this comment. Thanks Rey. Glad you liked the video. Part 2 should be coming out soon. It was fun shooting the video at Nick's shop. The only thing missing was Rey and Joe.
I learned a lot doing this swap with Nick. He was a wealth of knowledge. He knows the 22RE engine in and out very well because he's been rebuilding them and working on them for a long time. I'm stoked we partnered with him to make this video series.
Yes @@TimmyTheToolman Super glad to see the channel grow Timmy... Been here since I bought my 1st 3.4 V6 Tacoma a few years ago... I just bought another TRD Tacoma this time 4WD for more sic mods!!
Timmy, do you know where is the best place to buy all air hoses and coolant hoses as 1 package, maybe with clamps? I have this Toyota Dolphin 1987 only with 40000miles and still running, was sitting under roof for 10 years. Just started it again and want to tune up and change possible all rubber hoses and such. Thank you for this videos. Best ever!!
You can check with Yota1 Performance. They might have a kit available. Other than that, I wouldn't know who to suggest for a comprehensive kit to buy. Usually you just buy them separately from a dealership or online parts seller.
How nice it would have been to have a shop for this job with a lift :). I pulled the 22re from my 86 in a condo car port, rebuilt it in my back yard, and dropped it back in all while dodging the HOA nazis 😂. I’ve since acquired a place with a garage so luckily wont ever have to deal with a situation like that again. Fun stuff though I’ve just about rebuilt everything mechanically and next will be a little body work and paint. It’s been a fun project
Yep, this was the first job since we started our channel over 5 years ago that we had the luxury of a lift and large shop. It was definitely a nice change from sliding around on my back.
@@TimmyTheToolman yeah I've been following your channel since I had aspirations of building a 3rd gen but I ended up buying a first gen instead. Cool to see you getting on board with the old school :)
Thanks. Not many people are willing to document engine swaps like we do. We do it as a tutorial that people can actually follow and complete the job. Most do it as a highlight reel which is more about entertainment than instruction.
@@TimmyTheToolman great thank you for the help! My headgaskets blew at 210k, i figured i’d just replace the engine because of how old it is, and your engine replacement series has been a savior. 🙏🙏
@@bavylon3542 You're welcome. Good luck with the swap. If you're looking for a solid engine, consider Yota1 Performance. They will ship anywhere in the U.S.
Hey Timmy looking for a bed mat template for my 2000 tacoma extra cab. I have had Dee Zee fit bed mat on order since February 2nd and finally got tired of them pushing the ship dates out so I went and bought 5x7 foot 1/2 square bed mat. I want to find a template to use that will fit the wheel wells etc. any idea where I can got something like this? I have searched the web, asked the dealer and so far no luck. Any suggestions?do u have a video for that?
Nope. We're not a hardware store. We're a DIY Toyota/Lexus Automotive UA-cam Channel. I bet Fastenal could sell you the bolts you need. If not, I'd try an ACE Hardware. They generally have a nice complete selection of metric bolts. Like Nick says near the end of this video, you need bolts that are: *2.5" Long *Size: M12 *Thread Pitch: 1.25 *Probably have some M12 washers just in case you need to take up some space so you're not bottoming out the bolt and cracking the block casting.
@Timmy The Toolman i need advice i used scotch brite hand scrubber to clean my cylinder walls and pistons with wd 40 is it going to kill the motor i read its horrible and will get in the bearings and crank and destroy the engine, i wiped most of it off but some residue i think is in the piston rings and cylinder walls
@chefrobertcaldas I'm not an engine rebuilder so I don't know the effects WD40 could have on it. Maybe run it briefly after you get it back together and do an immediate oil change. Then run the engine a little longer, not driving, but maybe idle to operating temp and change the oil again. But, maybe call Yota1 Performance and ask their advice.
Nice! Nick and his crew are getting busier and busier. The last time we talked which was a few days ago, his current wait time for rebuilt engine orders is 6 months out. That's the result when you do good work and the word gets out. I guess it's a good problem to have when you're in demand.
I think we'll have Part 2 out within the next week. The editing for this series is the most labor intensive we have experienced to date. We filmed with 2 cameras, sometimes 3 and there's just a ton of footage to go through. Part 2 is long because it's a strip down of the old motor and a build-up of the new motor all in the same video. It's going to be around 1 hour and 40 minutes long but it's very complete and shows clearly everything you need to do.
You'll probably have better luck asking for help on a Toyota forum or Toyota Facebook page. But, are you asking for someone to help you do it, or are you asking about hiring someone to do it?

Dude I literally just removed my engine myself thanks to this video 🤟🏽🙌🏽
That's great to hear Lester. Thanks for sharing this with us. Part 2 will be coming out soon if you need it.

Just bought a 87 4runner. Gonna start pulling the engine tomorrow. This helped to get familiar with what I'm gonna be doing.
Good luck with the job.
Best videos ever I have seen on entire swap/rebuild on 22RE. This is incredible work you did
Thanks for the compliment. This was all Nick @ Yota1 Performance. Sean and I were just the cameramen and the editors of the project.
This is awesome Timmy thank you!!! My wife gave me a 92 Pickup with motor issues for christmas so this is just what I needed to pull the motor out! Legend!
Sounds like you have a great wife. You're very welcome. Good luck with the swap.

Another maddeningly thorough and informative video timmy! Must be nuts tryin to rememberin to mention every single detail and or scenario!
Love it!
Thanks Tony. We appreciate you noticing the detail we put into our videos.
Amazing how much I know about this 22RE engine just by knowing about the 5VZ... Obviously they are different but in a lot of ways they are similar...
I learned a lot doing this swap with Nick. He was a wealth of knowledge. He knows the 22RE engine in and out very well because he's been rebuilding them and working on them for a long time. I'm stoked we partnered with him to make this video series.

@@vonzipper2712 Cool, the more Toyotas the better. I have 3 now.
Hell ya been waiting on this shout out to yota1 those guys are great out there
Yep, we agree. Nick, Rebecca, and the rest of the gang at Yota1 are awesome.
Best thing about this video is that you can reference it fir other repairs can't wait to watch the second part
@@BassSniper209 Wait no more. It’s live.

I love that beat in the beginning!
You just made Sean's day. That was his creation.
@@TimmyTheToolman yeah Sean! Absolute banger my friend! Thank you guys for the excellent content.
Good job guys, very patient to explain it
Thanks. Not many people are willing to document engine swaps like we do. We do it as a tutorial that people can actually follow and complete the job. Most do it as a highlight reel which is more about entertainment than instruction.
Just pulled my first motor only took me a couple of hours. Thanks
Good job. It's not hard with the right information and tools.
I wish your videos would get more views, much deserved
Appreciate that! You know what they say, if you build it, they will come........slowly. Haha
Nice to see ya working on tha broooowwwdozer congrats on tha new motor yota rules!!! And hi shon✌ ,Tim always tha best ..... God day!!
Yeah, the Brodozer is running better than ever now. Thanks for the comment.
Thank you Timmy . excellent work.
You're welcome. I was mostly a cameraman and video editor for this job. The real thanks needs to go to Nick at Yota1.
Would you know how different it would be to do this on a Toyota pickup? Would it be exactly the same? Thanks!
@@bavylon3542 It would essentially be the same. There might be some small differences that I don't know about.
@@TimmyTheToolman great thank you for the help! My headgaskets blew at 210k, i figured i’d just replace the engine because of how old it is, and your engine replacement series has been a savior. 🙏🙏

@@TimmyTheToolman already put an order in!
@@bavylon3542 Smart decision.
I'm also looking to get my engine replaced by Yota1. How long did it take to swap out? Did you have to stay overnight?
Well, since we are filming, the job takes much longer. Yes, we stayed in town one night and finished it over 1 long weekend.
What size/length of chain is need to pull the engine? Thanks!
Don't know. The engine hoists come with a chain.
Can a 22re be used as a 22r ? Like instead of putting the fuel injected intake just put the carburated intake?
Yes, you could.

I don't know of a template. Never had a reason to search for one. Maybe try asking this question on Tacoma World forum in the 1st Gen section.
Thank you so much for this 🙏🏼
You're very welcome.
thank you so much
@@الورفليالورفلي-ش1ط You're very welcome.
What is the name brand of the Head Band Light you recommended?
It's just a Black Diamond headlamp. Bought it at REI.
I think you should remove the body lift ?
I'm ok with it, but who knows, maybe I will one day.
Very cool Tim! When's the next SJ meetup?
We would like to have a party this summer provided the Covid police will let us. I think it will happen.
@@TimmyTheToolman Hell yeah! Count me in, I owe you some beers for all the knowledge you've bestowed upon me
@@joeflynn4276 Sounds good Joe. I'm fairly confident a party will happen.
Can you sell me the bolts for the engine stand that screws to back of block?
Nope. We're not a hardware store. We're a DIY Toyota/Lexus Automotive UA-cam Channel. I bet Fastenal could sell you the bolts you need. If not, I'd try an ACE Hardware. They generally have a nice complete selection of metric bolts.
Like Nick says near the end of this video, you need bolts that are:

*Probably have some M12 washers just in case you need to take up some space so you're not bottoming out the bolt and cracking the block casting.
Very nice video
Thanks Edgar. Glad you like it.
where can i get those bolts that hold the engine to the engine stand? at a hardware store?
If it's a hardware store that's well stocked with metric bolts, you can probably find them. A place like Home Depot, good luck.
@Timmy The Toolman i need advice i used scotch brite hand scrubber to clean my cylinder walls and pistons with wd 40 is it going to kill the motor i read its horrible and will get in the bearings and crank and destroy the engine, i wiped most of it off but some residue i think is in the piston rings and cylinder walls
@chefrobertcaldas I'm not an engine rebuilder so I don't know the effects WD40 could have on it. Maybe run it briefly after you get it back together and do an immediate oil change. Then run the engine a little longer, not driving, but maybe idle to operating temp and change the oil again. But, maybe call Yota1 Performance and ask their advice.
Why did you remove the computer?
To have an easier time to make the electrical plug disconnects.
My yota one engine is gonna be ready in a month

What don't you know?
I’m looking for someone to replace my 22RE motor I live in California Bay Area anyone the can help me
You'll probably have better luck asking for help on a Toyota forum or Toyota Facebook page. But, are you asking for someone to help you do it, or are you asking about hiring someone to do it?
You have to give us prices, price range. A lot of folks are always asking what a new motor may run them
