  • Toyota 4Runner: 1989–1995 (Diesel Conversion/Replacement)


JDM to USDM Installation & Swap Guide

To ensure 100% compatibility and long-term durability, professional diesel technicians recommend the following “External Swap” steps:

  1. Cooling System Upgrade: The 2L-TE is sensitive to heat. We strongly recommend installing a new high-flow radiator, a new water pump, and a low-temperature thermostat during installation to prevent cylinder head cracking.

  2. Wiring & ECU: Ensure you use the JDM 2L-TE Engine ECU and wiring harness. If converting from a gas model (like a 22RE or 3VZ-E), significant wiring integration for the glow plug timer and EFI pump will be required.

  3. Transmission & Transfer Case: This package includes the AWD Automatic Transmission. Ensure your driveshaft lengths match the JDM transfer case output flanges, as some USDM 4Runner shafts may require modification.

  4. Fuel System: Inspect and flush your fuel tank. If converting from gasoline, you must replace the fuel pump and lines with diesel-rated components to prevent contamination and pump damage.

  5. Exhaust: The JDM turbo outlet may differ in angle from USDM chassis. Be prepared to fabricate a custom 2.5″ or 3″ downpipe to maximize turbo spool and reduce EGTs (Exhaust Gas Temperatures).

  6. Glow Plugs: Test the JDM glow plugs before installation. Replacing them with a fresh set of OEM Toyota glow plugs ensures reliable starting in cold climates.

What is included

You receive exactly what is pictured. Engines are supplied as a long block assembly with the components visible in the photos. Accessories such as the alternator, starter, intake manifold or sensors are included only where you can see them on the unit, so check the photographs before ordering and ask us if anything is unclear.

Before you order

  • Confirm the engine code against your own vehicle, not just the model year.
  • Japanese market units can differ from the US version in intake, loom and sensors.
  • Replace the timing components, water pump and seals while the unit is out. It is cheap insurance on an engine this age.
  • Keep your original accessories until the swap is finished and running.
