Thumbs up T100 from 2 to 4 and 4cyl to 6cyl


Okay I have a 1996 T100 2x2 4cyl engine which has done me good, but I am thinking when the engine dies could I convert the 2x2 to 4x4 under the cost of buying a new Tundra?
Gotta love this truck!

Definitely, SAS to convert to 4x4. It might also cost the same than to convert to 4x4 and stay IFS.

LSI= Fuel injected chevy Small block v8

this with SAS and some cage work will have a sweet setup.


Dont know what you want. a swap like this could easily run you $10g's.

I say if you do all the labor yourself you could deffinitely do a 4wd and motor swap. If you pay someone else to do it.......it depends what you have done.

It would be easier to do a SAS then try to retrofit OEM IFS without a doubt.
Im not a fan of SAS, simply because im in to high speed off roading where IFS is far superior, but each to their own.

As for the motor......the easiest swap would be a 3.4.....why not go for a 4.7? IF your gonna spend the time and money, make it worth it instead of making it just like a stock V6 T100?
