How to Remove Engine and Transmission 2001

2001 toyota tacoma engine with transmission removal. This engine has low compression due to bad valve seats and worn piston rings. I am removing this engine to rebuild. This is the 2rz engine, but the removal is very similar to a 3rz engine. If you have any questions, comment below. thanks for watching!

Dude, I can’t even say how awesome timing this to just have been posted. I’ve been doing an overhaul on my 96 Tacoma for the past few weeks and have read and watched several guides on how to pull the engine. This is by far the best that I’ve seen and has changed several steps with how I was planning to go about it. Could not be any more concise or clear. 10/10 fantastic 👏

Mine is similar, 2000 Toyota Tacoma 5 speed; do I need to remove the tranny or can it stay in place? which way would be easier? I am rebuilding the engine and head, currently have a blown head gasket, as far as the tranny goes I will be replacing the clutch but I dont need to remove the tranny for this right? or do I?

[@harborareatech310]

You can leave the tranny in the vehicle suported with a jack or stand, you would just need to remove the starter and of course the bell housing bolts holding the trannsmission to the engine. I would say it is a bit less steps leaving the transmission in the vehicle, but linning up the engine to the transmission in the vehicle would be a bit more difficult, though, if it is a manual transmission.

[@toycoma98]

How come you didn't remove the trans before you pulled the engine?

[@harborareatech310]

For me, it was easier to separate the two outside the vehicle
