Smile converting 5 speed to auto
How hard would it be to convert for 5 speed to auto on a 2000 2.7 4x4? Anyone done it in any order? auto to 5 speed? I hate shifting, got too old and dont like it anymore.

You can get a general idea of how involved it is from this auto-to-manual conversion writeup:

Toyota Tacoma Transmission Swap

Yes, this writeup is about going in the opposite direction, but the basic set of trade-offs and issues to be accounted for should be pretty much the same.

Not worth the time and hassle. Just get another truck.

Yeah I have started to look for another truck. But it is a lot easier looking for one when You got one. Once I bought mine I found 3 or 4 with good prices and the options I want. I got a good deal on this one and I am happy with it other than the shifting.
