So I've done this swap, and when I did it I clearanced the bracket in both spots no issues with it, also you can use the caldina power steering pump, just have to put a small tube from the rav4 one on it, I personally moved the dipstick bracket to mount to the top of the stock caldina down pipe, wouldn't recommend that one tho, also all these things have lasted over 35,000 miles so far, I roadtrip a lot.
Awesome work! And great camera work. Really informative and gives a real perspective on the work needed to do the swap. I thought it was fairly plug and play. Im curious how difficult it would be to retain the automatic from the caldina for those who like them. Gonna be a screamer.
It is mostly plug and play, provided you have the correct parts hahaha. As far as the Caldina automatic, I know a few have done it but no one has written it up yet.

Glad to see the series continuing
Thank you for watching! Trying to keep on it but I work for a ag shop and we are deep in hay season right now!
@@martinmotorsco any chance you can go over the alternator mounting as well?
@@hayame1924I definitely can. Car is currently at the tuning shop right now, but once I get it back, expect content to resume as normal.
Can't wait. Got a 2 door rav and have been thinking about doing this swap

Thank you for doing a video on the accessory mounting.
